MeowBay is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
In plain English: when you click a product link on MeowBay and make a purchase on Amazon (or other partner retailers), we may earn a small commission. This comes at absolutely no extra cost to you — the price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.
What This Means for You
- No extra cost — You pay the same price regardless of whether you use our affiliate links
- Independent ratings — Our product ratings and recommendations are based entirely on our research, testing, and veterinary consultation — never on commission rates
- Full transparency — Every article containing affiliate links includes a disclosure notice
- Self-funded reviews — We purchase all review products with our own funds
Why Affiliate Links?
Running MeowBay costs money — hosting, product purchases, veterinary consultations, writer compensation, and more. Affiliate commissions help us keep the site running and continue producing in-depth, honest reviews without charging readers for access.
We genuinely believe this model aligns our interests with yours: we only earn when you find our recommendations useful enough to make a purchase. If our content doesn’t help you, we don’t earn — and we’re okay with that accountability.
Other Revenue
In addition to affiliate commissions, MeowBay may earn revenue from display advertising (clearly labeled) and sponsored content (always disclosed and labeled as “Sponsored”). Sponsored content does not affect our editorial recommendations or product ratings.
