About Smart Marmalade Cats

Our Journey Began in 2017

Smart Marmalade Cats is a news website dedicated to delivering insightful and accurate information about one of the most fascinating creatures on Earth—cats! Founded in 2017, our mission is to bridge the information gap that exists in the vast online landscape regarding feline intelligence and behavior. We strive to be the go-to resource for cat owners, enthusiasts, and even scientists seeking reliable knowledge about these marvelous animals.

Our Story

The idea behind Smart Marmalade Cats was born out of a love for cats and a growing frustration with the lack of credible resources available online. Our founders, passionate about understanding feline psychology, set out to create a platform that would not only entertain but also educate cat lovers worldwide. Over the years, we’ve grown from a small team of enthusiasts to a dedicated crew of experts committed to our mission.
