The Internet is Amazing, but how do you know that pet care information is Safe & Accurate?

There has never been a resource like the internet. The problem comes though when trying to assess the quality of information. Is it accurate? up to date? safe? These questions are important, but never more so when it comes to looking after your pet as poor information can cause very real welfare problems.

That’s where the Pet Portal comes in. Members of our review panel carefully check the information in our database to ensure that not only is it accurate and up to date, but that is also represents the very best husbandry information available.  

The Pet Portal is managed by the Pet Charity, a charity that exists to promote the joy of pet keeping. The Pet Charity has no affiliation to an organisation or company or brand. It’s aim is to ensure that if you want to keep a pet then you have access to information that you can trust.
