Bringing fresh, human grade meals for your cats straight to your door
About Smalls
Smalls operates in the pet food industry, specializing in delivering human-grade fresh cat food directly to consumers' doors. The company targets cat owners who are looking for healthier, high-protein alternatives to traditional pet food. Smalls' business model is subscription-based, where customers receive monthly deliveries of vet-formulated fresh food tailored to their cats' needs. The food is gently cooked to preserve nutrients and moisture, which contributes to benefits such as shinier fur, more energy, and less stinky litter boxes. Smalls differentiates itself by avoiding fillers, preservatives, and artificial ingredients commonly found in other pet foods. The company generates revenue through its subscription plans, which are customized based on a quick online quiz that helps determine the best plan for each cat.
