Why this page exists

We review every entry on this site against current UK veterinary guidance and update pages as new research emerges or as reader feedback points to corrections. This page shows when changes happened and what changed — so you can see the site is actively maintained, and check whether the guidance you read last month is still the guidance today.

Our review schedule

• Every entry is reviewed at least once every 6 months.
• Emergency-grade entries (lilies, paracetamol, antifreeze, permethrin, essential oils) are reviewed quarterly.
• Corrections reported via our contact form are investigated within 24 hours and applied within 48 hours if confirmed.
