The Honest Kitchen's 100% human-grade cat food portfolio is free from artificial preservatives, colors, flavors, feed-grade ingredients and by-products, fillers and GMO ingredients; this line features only ingredients that have been sourced from the human food supply chain, and the products are made in a human food facility.
The cat food line includes a mix of products, including dehydrated, dry and wet foods, plus toppers, treats and hydration boosters to support a range of nutritional needs. No matter the product, the first ingredient is always meat or fish that's mindfully sourced, such as cafe-free turkey, free-range chicken or wild-caught salmon.
The humanification of pet food reflects a pet parent's own preferences when it comes to healthy eating, and pet owners are going to greater lengths to care for important members of their household.
