About Clawmate

We're on a mission to make quality pet care information accessible to everyone.

Our Mission

Pet Care Information Should Be Free

Too often, pet parents are left guessing about their pet's health. Is a dry nose bad? Can dogs eat grapes? These questions shouldn't require an expensive vet visit to answer. Clawmate provides researched, sourced information to help you make informed decisions about your pet's care — from our pet health guides and breed encyclopedia to interactive tools and expert articles.

Our editorial team researches from peer-reviewed veterinary journals and authoritative sources like the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), ASPCA Animal Poison Control, and breed registries. Health-related articles are cross-referenced with multiple sources and reviewed for accuracy before publication. We update content regularly to reflect current veterinary guidelines and research findings.

Editorial Standards: We follow journalistic best practices for fact-checking and source verification. When citing statistics or health claims, we link directly to primary sources.
