This has been a busy week for Raffy. She appeared on Radio Solent yesterday for a prime time 30 min slot all about pet food. John spoke on Raffys behalf but all the production team were smitten with her and wanted to take her home with them! There were alot of callers ringing in saying that even in these difficult economic times they still wanted to give their pets good honest food like OrganiPets. One caller rang to say that perhaps organic pet food was a step too far, however John explained that what was important in pet food was that it was made from good quality ingredients that benefit pets ( not low grade meat or bulking agents such as wheat and soya) and that there should be no artifical preservatives, flavours or colours added. As we use organic ingredients these by definition will not have such nasties in them, additionally us as pet owners have the peace of mind knowing that the chickens we use are freerange and well as organic. So what we are saying is that whats important is that pet food is made from real ingredients that help our pets and is produced in an ethical way, being organic is the icing on the cake. There also was one caller taking about high protein being wrong for pets, the vet who was also on the show pointed out that dogs and cats are meant the have protein however whats important is the type of protein and that protein that mainly comes from a carbohydrate base probably isnt the best.
Let us know your thoughts on this as these are interesting questions.
Raffy is now about to be interviewed by a journalist for a very big paper so we need to dash.
Have a lovely weekend, perhaps Summer has arrived?
