"As a veterinary technician in a high-volume clinic, standardizing pain assessment among our staff was always a challenge. This app has been a game-changer for our post-operative care. The scientific validation provides the clinical confidence we need, and the practice modules are an incredible training tool for our junior interns. It makes feline welfare objective and actionable."

"My senior cat was recently diagnosed with a chronic condition, and I constantly worried that she was suffering in silence because cats hide pain so well. This app gave me the peace of mind I was looking for. The visual guides helped me learn exactly what to look for in her expressions, allowing me to provide my vet with objective data rather than just my own anxiety."
