A packaged wet pet food product comprises a flexible container body and an integrated dispenser head for the storing and dispensing of wet pet food, specifically wet cat food or wet dog food. The flexible container body can be manually grasped and squeezed in order to deform the container body and force wet pet food stored therein to be forced through a series of exit ports formed in the dispenser head. The exit ports combine to essentially define a sieve, with the wet pet food automatically breaking into randomly sized pieces or extruded sections during dispensing, thereby advantageously avoiding the need to separately chop the pet food apart prior to consumption. The package is preferably sized to store enough pet food for multiple feedings, with the dispenser head including a cap or cover for sealing the container between uses.

A method of making a supplement for a pet. The method mixes an aqueous protein solution with supplements. Once the supplements have been mixed into the aqueous protein solution, a fat constituent is introduced and mixed into the solution. The solution is then cooled and stored. After a predetermined period of time, the mixture is reheated and a thickening agent is introduced into the mixture.

The present patent application relates to novel polyunsaturated fatty acid salt (PUFA salts) solid formulations.

A pet food product includes a food substrate manufactured by extrusion, baking or other process involving heat. The pet food product includes less than 10% of hemp oil by weight, and preferably less than 5% by weight. The hemp oil has cannabinoids, including acidiccannabinoids. The acidic cannabinoids have a concentration of less than 100 parts per million, and preferably between 10-40 parts per million in the hemp oil. The acidic cannabinoids include cannabidiolic acid (CBD-A) and cannabidiol (CBD) in a ratio of at least 1:1, and preferably 3:1, or greater. An antioxidant is added to the hemp oil to inhibit oxidation of the acidiccannabinoids including the (CBD-A). The pet food product includes a second oil blended with the hemp oil. The antioxidant and the second oil cooperate to inhibit oxidation of the acidic cannabinoids.
