About Lily's Kitchen
Lily’s Kitchen creates naturally delicious, wholesome food for cats and dogs because they believe our pets deserve to eat proper food that’s full of nourishing ingredients. We all know a balanced, nutritious diet is key to staying in tip-top condition, inside and out. Lily's kitchen is passionate about pets’ health and happiness.
Everyone has a responsibility to our planet and everything in it. So whatever Lily's Kitchen does - from eco packaging to organic ingredients - the team at Lily's Kitchen try to tread carefully on the planet our pets love so much.

Over ten years ago, Henrietta; Lily’s owner, struggled to find a pet food filled with honest, natural ingredients. After Lily fell ill, suffering with sore and itchy skin, Henrietta started cooking from scratch to nurse her back to health. A much loved member of the family, Lily deserved nothing but proper food and Henrietta wondered why all beloved pets couldn’t get their paws on the same. Henrietta then decided to work with some brilliant vets and nutritionists to make delicious, quality recipes using wholesome ingredients and just like that, Lily’s Kitchen was born.
Lily is the reason that Lily’s Kitchen is here today. Whilst she's no longer with us, the special relationship she had with Henrietta will always be at the heart of what Lily'd Kitchen does. Pets are family and they deserve the very best.
Today, they’re still making those recipes and so many more, following the same principles that started it all: proper food, made with love.
