With the economy going to the dogs, meatpacking giant Tyson Foods Inc. is forming an alliance to make a product its executives think is recession-proof: deli-like food for pets.
Tyson, Springdale, Ark., is expected to announce Tuesday that it bought a minority stake for millions of dollars in closely held Freshpet Co., a Secaucus, N.J., company that is rolling out refrigerated dog food to thousands of stores such as Kroger, Supervalu and PetSmart.
The Freshpet brand is unusual because the company's executives, a collection of former Meow Mix managers, are ...
There are many more articles to the question: Who owns Freshpet.
Not sure what you mean with your above answer about who owns it. Are they terrorists or something they sound like notable executives from several companies?
has your cat tried it? Would you consider having you cat try it?
Mine love it! It took them a bit to actually eat the carrots, but now they devour the stuff. It's worth every penny if they like it. I guess I am one of those...money is no object when it comes to my kitties.

I always pick the carrots out of any cat food before I serve it. Carrots offer no nutritional benefit to cats, and they are high in sugar. They are nothing but filler.

It might be a reasonable idea to educate yourself on the real nutritional needs of cats before making too much fun. I mean, I might not go to the length of pulling out carrots if they happen to be in there (pretty sure I don't get any foods with carrots, but at least one brand that I find to be a good choice in cans does use carrot chunks in a couple of their varieties, large enough that they could be pulled out), but it's not wrong that carrots have about zero nutritional value for cats.
Way too much cat food is designed mainly to make it appealing to HUMANS. A great majority of humans, I would venture, do not realize just how little use a cat has for what appear to us to be healthy vegetables, for example.
With money as no object, one can provide some really fantastic food options I would think. For various reasons I'm not convinced this is one of them. There is fish in all the cat food, for example, even the one that doesn't cite fish in the name has tuna down the list. This is not really ideal on an ongoing basis. Assuming kitty will eat other things it appears to be best to keep fish to an occasional treat (maybe once a week) not an everyday meal.
I also pick out potatoes and peas. A cat's body has no use for vegetables, it's just filler added to make the unenlightened human think they are feeding the cat a "balanced diet".
I agree with you Greg, especially about the fish. I feed no fish to my cats. Labels do have to be read carefully, because so many cat foods have fish listed, even when it isn't in the name of the food. A good example would be California Natural's Venison and brown rice. The food is labeled Venison, but smells like fish. Then you look at the ingredients and discover no wonder, fishy ingredients are the second third and fourth ingredients.
I feed only two foods that contain any vegetables, and they are not fed frequently in the rotation, but when I do feed them, I pick out the veggies.
