Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: June 2026. In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR Part 255 (“Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising”), this page explains how PetKiddies uses affiliate links.

What are affiliate links?

Some of the links on PetKiddies.com are “affiliate links.” This means if you click on one of these links and buy the product, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the vendor’s website.

How we use them

We participate in several affiliate programs, including:

  • Amazon Associates — Amazon’s affiliate program. When you buy through an Amazon link on our site, we earn a small percentage of the sale.
  • Chewy Affiliate Program — Same model, through Chewy.
  • Other brand-specific affiliate programs (e.g., The Farmer’s Dog, BarkBox, Embark, etc.) — see the specific product page for details.

Our editorial policy

Affiliate relationships do not influence our recommendations. We have turned down offers from brands whose products we couldn’t honestly recommend. Our review criteria are the same for affiliate and non-affiliate products. When a product is PR-supplied, we disclose it prominently in the article.

How we mark affiliate content

Affiliate links on our site are tagged with the azonpress or affiliate tag. We also use the AzonPress WordPress plugin to display product comparison blocks, which may show “Buy on Amazon” buttons that are tracked affiliate links. Where possible, we include a non-affiliate link to the brand’s official site for users who prefer not to use affiliate links.

Your cost is the same

Using our affiliate links does not increase the price you pay. In fact, many of our affiliate links include coupon codes or special offers that reduce the price for you.

Why we use affiliate links

PetKiddies is reader-supported. The income from affiliate links allows us to:

  • Buy products to test (we pay for most products ourselves)
  • Pay our consulting veterinarian to review health-related articles
  • Maintain the website and hosting
  • Continue producing free, in-depth guides and reviews

If you find our content useful, using our affiliate links is the best way to support the site at no cost to you. Thank you.
