Medical Advice

You may ask for opinions or shared experiences regarding cat health however this subreddit does not provide professional veterinary advice. For any sick or injured cat, you are strongly advised to seek immediate, professional care from a certified veterinarian.

No AI Slop.

No kind of AI slop for karma farming.

Fundraising Posts

All fundraising posts must be clearly marked with the specific 'Fundraiser-Yet not verified' flair. User must provide verification picture (write username in a paper & hold it infront of cat then take a picture), necessary documents (medical bills, vet clinic bills, blood reports etc). Bills must be recent & we can ask for more clarification as we feel, approval is not guaranteed. Mod discretion will apply & will be final. We will verify each post & update flair to "Fundraiser-Mod verified".

No Buying, Selling, or Breeding

This rule is in place to support ethical animal welfare practices and discourage irresponsible breeding activities.
