Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment

Fat Cat Wares is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities and help us provide a better experience for all users.

Measures We Take

We have taken the following steps to improve accessibility on our website:

• Provide text alternatives for non-text content (images include descriptive alt text).
• Use sufficient color contrast ratios between text and background to support users with low vision.
• Ensure all interactive elements (buttons, links, forms) are keyboard-navigable and focus-visible.
• Use semantic HTML elements and ARIA landmarks to assist screen readers in navigating page structure.
• Provide descriptive link text so that links make sense out of context.
• Ensure form fields have associated labels for screen reader compatibility.
• Avoid content that flashes or flickers more than three times per second.
• Provide a "skip to main content" mechanism to help keyboard users bypass repetitive navigation.
• Use responsive design so the site is usable at all screen sizes and zoom levels up to 200%.

Known Limitations

While we strive to adhere to accessibility best practices, some areas of our website may not yet fully meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. We are actively working to identify and address these gaps. If you encounter any barriers, please contact us so we can assist you directly and prioritize improvements.

Assistive Technology Compatibility

Our website is designed to be compatible with the following assistive technologies:

• Screen readers (e.g., NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, TalkBack)
• Keyboard-only navigation
• Browser zoom up to 200% without loss of content or functionality
• High contrast display modes
• Voice recognition software (e.g., Dragon NaturallySpeaking)

Feedback and Contact

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of the Fat Cat Wares website. If you experience any accessibility barriers, please let us know:

When contacting us, please describe the specific barrier you encountered, the assistive technology you are using (if any), and the URL or page where you experienced the issue. This helps us address the problem as quickly as possible.

Formal Complaints

If you are not satisfied with our response to your accessibility concern, you may contact the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division. The ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities and requires places of public accommodation to be accessible. More information about your rights under the ADA is available at www.ada.gov.

Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We regularly review our website and update our practices to improve accessibility. This statement will be updated as we make improvements or as accessibility standards evolve.
