}

CONTENT REQUIREMENTS:
- AT LEAST 8 H2 sections — MANDATORY and checked programmatically. The "sections" array in your JSON MUST have 8 or more objects. Do NOT merge multiple topics into one section.
- If the competitor heading list above has more than 8 topics, match that count. Suggested headings: "What to Look For", "How It Works", "Common Problems", "Buying Guide", "Expert Tips", "Safety Considerations", "Alternatives to Consider", "Our Verdict" — adapt naturally to the topic and competitor headings
- Include expert observations. NEVER include prices, price ranges, dollar amounts, or "typically costs $X" statements anywhere in the article — Amazon Associates compliance, and prices drift between requests. If the reader wants the current price they can click the affiliate link.
- Write in authoritative, trustworthy tone
- READABILITY: Keep every paragraph to 50-75 words MAX. Break dense information into bullet points or numbered lists. Short punchy paragraphs. Alternate between paragraphs, bullet lists, and bold key phrases.
- SIMPLIFIED EXPLANATIONS: Use at least 3 transition phrases from this list across the article: "for example", "such as", "in other words", "simply put", "think of it". Insert them when introducing a technical concept, giving a concrete example, or summarizing a dense idea. These phrases are checked programmatically — missing them drops the readability score.
- DO NOT include comparison tables or product tables in the sections — a real product comparison is injected separately
- DO NOT include internal links or external links in the JSON — those are built from site data
- pickReasons HARD REQUIREMENT: every "reasoning" entry MUST include all three sentences. Sentence 3 MUST begin with the EXACT text 'Why we like this pick:' — this marker is verified programmatically and its absence is a publish-blocking defect. Example of a valid sentence 3: "Why we like this pick: solves daily scooping drudgery → keeps odor contained between cleans → ideal for busy single-cat owners." Never skip sentence 3.

SEO REQUIREMENTS:
- TITLE: 50-60 chars, MUST contain "large cat food bowl for seniors". Only use well-known brands.
- META DESCRIPTION: 145-155 characters exactly, include keyword once, include CTA
- KEYWORD USAGE: Use the exact phrase "large cat food bowl for seniors" 6-12 times naturally across the whole article. Distribute evenly — aim for once per 300-400 words. Paraphrase where repetition would feel unnatural — use synonyms, partial phrases, pronouns ("it", "this setup", "these boxes"). Never use the keyword more than once in any single paragraph.
- HEADINGS: AT LEAST 8 H2s required. Keyword appears in AT MOST 1 H2. The other H2s use natural language (e.g. "What to Look For", "How It Works", "Common Problems", "Buying Guide", "Expert Tips", "Safety Considerations", "Alternatives to Consider", "Our Verdict").

AEO/GEO (Featured Snippets + AI Search):
- quickAnswer: 40-60 word direct answer for Position 0. Start with the answer, not context.
- FAQ answers: direct 40-60 word answer first, then 2-3 supporting sentences (100-160 words max per FAQ)

FACTUAL ACCURACY:
- NEVER invent scientific names, expert names, or study citations
- Author is "Amelia Hartwell, Cat Care Specialist (Certified Feline Behavior Consultant)" — copy EXACTLY
- All stats must be real/verifiable or rephrased as qualitative observations

AI WRITING STYLE:
- No markdown formatting (use <strong>/<em> in HTML content fields), no em dashes, no exclamation points
- Avoid AI slop words: delve, leverage, utilize, robust, comprehensive, pivotal, cutting-edge, game-changer, revolutionize
- Avoid keyword-as-subject sentences: never write "large cat food bowl for seniors is a great...", "large cat food bowl for seniors offers...", "large cat food bowl for seniors helps...". Rewrite to put the real subject first ("A hooded box keeps…", "This setup suits…").
- Varied sentence lengths: mix short punchy sentences (5-8 words) with longer flowing ones (20-30 words)
- Write like a human expert having a conversation, not a bullet-point summary
- Use transitional phrases between paragraphs

FIELD GUIDANCE:
- introduction: 140-190 words. Name top product, brief why.
- whyTrustUs: 40-60 words.
- sections: AT LEAST 8 sections, 360-420 words each. Do NOT write sections shorter than 288 words. Add more sections
