How MyLILO premium cat food is made
How our premium cat food is made – with 98% animal protein, regional raw materials and sustainable packaging
Honest. Natural. Responsible. Our favourites deserve only the best – food that matches their nature and is made with real responsibility. With 98% animal protein, raw materials from German farmers and sustainable mono-material packaging, we’re setting new standards in quality, transparency and environmental awareness.
From idea to recipe
It all started with a simple question: What does a cat really need – and what doesn’t it need?
Cats are pure meat eaters (carnivores). That’s why we consciously avoid unnecessary fillers and plant-based protein sources – and focus on what matters for cats: high-quality, food-grade animal protein.
Our animal nutrition experts develop every recipe with the goal of
- optimally meeting natural nutritional needs,
- being gentle on digestion,
- and preserving the taste cats instinctively love.
Origin & quality of ingredients
We source our raw materials exclusively from selected German farmers and regional businesses that share our values:
responsibility, transparency and quality.
What matters to us:
- Short transport routes for maximum freshness
- Fair partnerships with regional producers
- Meat from responsible animal husbandry
- No artificial preservatives, no flavour enhancers
This is how we create a product that is honest, sustainable and high-quality – from origin to bowl.
Gentle processing
To preserve the valuable ingredients, the meat is gently cooked – without unnecessary heat or pressure. This keeps proteins, vitamins and minerals in their natural, easily digestible form.
Our goal: a food that stays as close to nature as possible – and, thanks to its high animal protein content of 98%, delivers what cats really need.
Sustainably packaged – our mono-material
We don’t just think about healthy nutrition, but also about our environment.
That’s why we use sustainable mono-material packaging that is 100% recyclable. Unlike composite materials, which can only be thermally recovered, mono-material enables full recycling and therefore reuse. Moving away from cans, which are true energy guzzlers in production and take up a lot of space in storage and transport.
Cans take up space both before and after filling.
That means:
- Our packaging consists of just one type of material,
- can be easily recycled in the yellow bin,
- and therefore reduces unnecessary packaging waste.
This keeps our food not only natural, but also sustainable from start to finish.
Why 98% animal protein is so important
Cats need animal protein for:
- Muscle building and energy
- A strong immune system
- Healthy skin & a shiny coat
Plant-based proteins can’t do that – they’re hard for cats to utilise. That’s why we focus on what nature intended: maximum animal protein for maximum vitality.
Our conclusion:
With every bowl, we pass on what really matters:
honest ingredients, natural nutrients, regional origin and sustainable packaging. Because if you love your cat, you feed responsibly – and that’s our standard for every single product.
Honesty instead of buzzwords – transparency by conviction
For us, quality doesn’t just mean what ends up in the bowl, but also that everyone can understand what’s in it. That’s why we publish not only the legally required information, but also additional details on nutrients that often don’t even have to be declared. This way, everyone can see exactly which ingredients are in our food – and why they matter.
We consciously avoid big comparisons or loud promises. Because we’re convinced that a good product speaks for itself – through honest recipes, transparent communication and consistent quality. Our goal isn’t to stand out, but to build trust by openly showing what we do – step by step, from raw material to finished meal.
