CAT and DOG FOODS
Throughout history, the feeding of dogs has been carried out with basic products such as meat, bones, and grains; the dog and cat food industry began commercially in the 1860s and recorded significant developments in the 20th century. From the 1960s, dog and cat foods began to be produced through the extrusion process. With the advancement of veterinary science and the development of nutritional understanding, pet nutrition has been placed on a more scientific basis. On the other hand, the commercialization of cat foods is a relatively newer concept than dog foods. People often thought that cats could hunt on their own. However, due to cat lovers' demand, the cat food industry was born. Historically, cats were fed by hunting rodents and other pests in homes.

Now, there is a focus on natural ingredients and nutritional value in dog and cat foods. Pet owners are researching to make better choices for their animals' health.
