Raw food isn't just for dogs! 😺

Did you know your cat's natural diet in the wild consists of fresh, raw meat? Switching to a raw food diet can bring incredible benefits to your feline friend! Here's why:

🌟 Improved Digestion: Cats are obligate carnivores—raw food is easier on their tummies than processed kibble.

🌟 Healthier Coat: A raw diet is rich in essential nutrients that promote a shiny, soft coat.

🌟 Higher Energy Levels: Raw food provides natural protein and fat for sustained energy and vitality.

🌟 Cleaner Teeth: Chewing on raw bones or chunks of meat helps reduce tartar and plaque buildup.

🌟 Fewer Allergies: Many processed foods contain fillers and additives—raw diets are clean and allergen-friendly.

Your cat deserves the best too! 🐱 Transitioning to raw food is easier than you think. Start small, take it slow and chat to us for more help.

🐾 Strong joints, happy pets! 🦴 Did you know that raw feeding can play a big role in supporting your furry friend's joint health? 🌱✨

A raw diet is packed with natural nutrients like glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for maintaining healthy cartilage, reducing inflammation, and keeping those joints moving smoothly. Plus, raw bones provide a natural source of calcium and phosphorus for strong bones! 🐕🐾

Say goodbye to stiffness and hello to a more active, playful companion. ❤️ Let your pet thrive naturally!

Think twice about what’s in your dog’s bowl! 🐾

Many commercial dog foods are filled with artificial additives, preservatives, and low-quality ingredients that can harm your furry friend's health over time. ❤️‍🩹

Issues like obesity, allergies, digestive problems, and even chronic diseases are often linked to poor diet choices.

Your pet deserves real, wholesome nutrition, not a mystery mix of by-products. Consider switching to a raw diet for a happier, healthier pup. 🌿❤️

✨ Improved Digestion: Many pets experience less bloating, firmer stools, and fewer allergies.
✨ Better Energy Levels: A species-appropriate diet can mean more vitality and energy.
✨ Dental Health: Chewing raw meaty bones can naturally cleans teeth and reduces tartar buildup.

Switching to raw feeding is about giving your pet the optimal nutrition they deserve. Because, don't forget, cats thrive on a raw diet too! 🐶🐱

Happy New Year

Thank you to all our amazing customers who continue to support us, this has been one of our hardest years and we have questioned a lot this past year. But our passion for raw feeding and the benefits it brings to dogs keeps us going, as well as our wonderful customers 😍

Unfortunately we will be saying goodbye to one member of our team this year, Julia. She has been with us from the beginning and been in our lives a lot longer!
I'm sure you will all agree that the shop won't be the same without Ju sorting us all out, we will do our best to keep standards up but they are already slipping! 😅

Julia, we love you, we will miss you and we cannot thank you enough for trusting us, sticking with us, and putting up with our ever changing plans and shop layouts! ❤️

Road closure!
The road is closed through Whittington so the only access to us is via the Elford side of Fisherwick Road.

That end does still have road closed signs up however you can access us.

We would advise you not to follow the diversion route as that also has a road closed. We recommend going on to the A38 up to Alrewas going straight across the National Arboretum island and past Elford this way.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this will cause, unfortunately we weren't told anything prior to this week and then what we have been told was wrong and we've had to wait and see each day to see where they are working.

We will keep you updated for the rest of the week.

Please contact us if you have any problems.
