About
Cats deserve better writing than they usually get.
Most of what is published about cats online is written to rank, not to be right. It gets copied between sites until nobody remembers where a claim came from, and the cat in the photograph is a stock image of a dog’s best friend. We started catsaremyworld because the gap between what veterinary medicine actually knows about cats and what cat owners are told is unreasonably wide.
We are a small independent publication working out of Bengaluru and reading from everywhere. We cover care, health, behaviour, breed science and photography, and we maintain a directory of clinics that are genuinely equipped for cats — starting in India, because that is where we can verify listings first-hand, and expanding outward from there.
What this site is
- A reference you can read before a vet appointment so you ask better questions.
- A directory that tells you which clinic is open at 2am, and says when it has not been checked.
- Photography that treats the cat as a subject rather than a punchline.
- A record that gets corrected in public when we get something wrong.
What it is not
- A substitute for examining your individual cat. We cannot see your cat; your vet can.
- A health shop. We sell a short list of objects, but never food, supplements, medicine or insurance — and the shop never appears inside our health coverage.
- An aggregator. Nothing here is spun from another site's article.
- A place for miracle cures, detoxes, or anything that asks you to skip the clinic.
Editorial standards
Why you can trust us on cat health.
Trust should be earned by method, not asserted by tone. These are the rules we hold ourselves to. If we break one, we would rather you told us than quietly stopped reading.
- 01
Health claims come from veterinary sources.
Peer-reviewed literature, published guidelines from feline-medicine bodies, and clinical references — not from other pet blogs. Where evidence is thin or contested, we say so in the article rather than picking the tidier answer.
- 02
Every article carries a date, and gets re-read.
Health and behaviour coverage goes back on the desk on a fixed cycle. When guidance changes, we update the piece and note what changed. Old advice is corrected in place, never quietly deleted.
- 03
We separate what is known from what is likely.
A lot of cat advice circulates as folklore with confident phrasing. We try to write the difference plainly — what the evidence supports, what is reasonable inference, and what is simply a widely repeated guess.
- 04
No affiliate links in health coverage. Ever.
We run our own small shop, and it is kept strictly out of the way: no product links inside health articles, no affiliate deals with anyone, and nothing sold that carries a health claim — no food, no supplements, no medicine, no insurance. If a product is ever named in an article, it is because it is the right answer, and any commercial interest is stated at the top of the page rather than buried in a footer.
- 05
The vet directory cannot be bought.
No clinic pays to be listed or to rank higher. Listings we have not independently confirmed stay visibly marked as unverified, even when that makes the directory look less complete than a competitor's.
- 06
We tell you when to stop reading and call someone.
There is a point in most health topics where the useful thing an article can do is end. We try to mark that point clearly instead of writing past it.
Review board
Who checks the work.
Three review roles sit above the desk, each with the authority to block a piece from publishing. We are appointing them now, and we will name every reviewer here — with their credentials — rather than hiding behind an anonymous “expert team”.
Applied animal behaviour
Behaviour Reviewer
Reviews Behaviour and Care articles, with a specific brief to strike anything that reads as dominance-theory folklore.
Appointment pending
Feline genetics
Genetics & Breed Reviewer
Reviews Breeds coverage, including the hereditary-disease sections that most breed guides leave out.
Appointment pending
Until a reviewer is appointed to a seat, articles in that area are written and fact-checked in-house against published veterinary sources, and labelled as such. We would rather show you an empty seat than imply an expert signed off on something nobody read.
Corrections
When we get something wrong, we fix the article, add a dated note explaining what changed, and leave the note there permanently. We do not silently edit. If a claim on this site conflicts with what your vet tells you about your cat, your vet is looking at the actual animal — follow them, then tell us.
Report an errorHow we stay independent
We take no money from clinics for directory placement and run no affiliate links anywhere. What we do sell is our own small shop — print, and a few objects our own reporting argues for — which is how the writing gets paid for. It is deliberately walled off from health coverage. Our incentive is that you come back, which only works if we are right.
