Cats are some of the most popular pets in the UK, and a new pet food option could soon be available to their owners. Meatly, a UK-based cultivated meat company, has developed the world's first lab-grown cat food.
Meatly has partnered with Omni, a pet food company venturing into the business of cultivated meat for the first time. While many pet owners may be concerned about the safety of lab-grown meat, Meatly reassures that its product, which uses chicken grown in a lab, is safe to eat. It is not only a cruelty-free source of meat but also healthier for pets.
The meat is grown using cells from chicken eggs cultivated in the lab, and it looks like real chicken, according to Meatly. Owen Ensor, co-founder and CEO of Meatly said, “Cultivated meat gives pet parents an easy choice—high quality, tasty, nutritious, and sustainable pet food.”
The pet food market is getting a lot of attention. If you had a kitten, would you feed it lab-grown meat?
