Ratings and reviews

Not sure how accurate it is. It's difficult to report on some issues, some photos in the test look the same. The positions of the cat are very limited.

excellent app and very simple and easy to use....incredibly helpful for learning how to read your cat's facial expressions as far as discomfort and pain goes.
