It started with a golden retriever
eating socks. Again.

Our founder was watching their golden retriever devour yet another sock and realized — there’s so much pet owners simply don’t know, and finding trustworthy advice online feels like navigating a jungle. So The Paw Insider was born.

What began as a dog-focused blog quickly grew into something bigger. Cat people found us. Rabbit owners found us. Someone with a chinchilla found us. And honestly? We welcomed every single one of them with open arms (and lint rollers).

Today we cover everything from first-time puppy parenting to exotic reptile care — always backed by vets, trainers, and certified behaviorists. Because your pet deserves nothing less.

Every answer.

🐱

Cats

Decoding feline behavior, indoor enrichment, nutrition guides, litter box troubleshooting, and understanding that death stare.

Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas — small in size, big in personality. We’ve got complete care guides for all of them.

🐦

Researched, Not Guessed

Our team has dogs, cats, a grumpy parrot, two rabbits, and at least one person whose fish has a name and a birthday. We don’t just write about pets — we live with them.
