For shelters and rescues

Feed every animal right, from intake to adoption day.

New intakes on unknown diets, a donation pile of mismatched brands, and adopters who leave with no food plan: this is for the staff and volunteers who handle all of it with no nutritionist on call.

What we hear from shelters

Nobody on staff signed up to be a nutritionist.

Intakes on unknown diets

New animals arrive stressed, sometimes mid-illness, and staff have to make a fast feeding call with no nutrition background.

A pantry of donated brands

Shelters run on whatever gets donated. Nobody has time to check whether a given bag is actually adequate for the animals eating it.

A recall mid-supply

When a shelter is partway through a bulk supply of one brand and it gets recalled, staff need to know right away, not from the news.

Adopters and fosters with no plan

Adopters, and fosters who often take home animals with real medical nuance, leave with no food plan and call staff with questions.

Free, no account, right now

Two tools you can use today.

Look up any product for its ingredient and nutrition profile, or read an ingredient reference page to explain something on a label. Both are public and need no login. Our food transition checklist is also live today, and it's the guide behind the personalized handout below.

Coming soon, if you want it

None of this exists yet. Tell us which one would.

We're testing demand before we build. Pick what would actually help your shelter in the form below and we'll build the ones people ask for.

A personalized send-home guide

Tell us the animal's current food and any known notes, weight, age, allergy flags, and get a print-ready handout specific to that animal, not a boilerplate sheet. Fosters get the same treatment, since they often take home animals with more medical nuance sooner than an adopter would.

A donated-food check

Tell us what's in your pantry and we'll help you figure out what's actually nutritionally adequate to feed from a mismatched donation pile.

Recall alerts

For the brands you're currently running through, so a mid-supply recall doesn't blindside you.

Show it, don't just say it

An embeddable "nutrient profile checked" badge for your own adoption listings, and plain factual language you can cite in a grant or donor application. Free content for your own page, not a partnership ask.

Common questions

Questions from shelters.

Is any of this free?

Yes. Looking up a product and reading an ingredient page cost nothing today, no account required. The personalized handout, donated-food check, recall alerts, and the badge and grant-reporting language are all things we're gauging interest in before we build them, so tell us what would help and we'll follow up.

Do we need to create an account?

No. The tools that exist today (product lookup, ingredient pages) need no login. If you request one of the newer offers, we'll follow up by email to work out what makes sense for your shelter.

How does the personalized handout work if we're not tech savvy?

It's meant to be simple: tell us the animal's current food and anything you already know (weight, age, allergy flags), and we send back a print-ready page. No app, no account, no QR code, just a short link you can type in or a page you can print.

How would recall alerts actually reach us?

That's still being worked out based on interest. The likely shape is an email to your shelter's contact whenever a brand you told us you're feeding shows up in our recall database.

What can the badge or grant language actually say?

Only what was checked, never a safety or certification claim. Expect wording like "AAFCO nutrient profile checked," not "safe" or "certified." We'll be specific about what any badge or language means before you ever use it.

Do you sell or share adopter data?

No. Anything you send us is used to follow up and build the offer you asked about, nothing else. Read our privacy policy
