VegeCat™ is a supplement that allows caretakers to prepare nutritionally complete homemade meals for their cats.
When added to homemade recipes, VegeCat™ ensures the food contains all essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals required for feline health. VegeCat™ provides several hard-to-find nutrients that cats require, all derived from vegan sources:


  • Taurine – Cats cannot produce enough taurine, and a deficiency leads to blindness and heart disease. VegeCat™ ensures adequate levels.
  • Vitamin A – Cats cannot convert the carotene found in vegetables into vitamin A. They must receive vitamin A directly through their diet, as it naturally occurs only in animal tissues or in supplemented form.
  • Vitamin D3 – The formula includes plant-based vitamin D3, which is essential for maintaining bone and immune health.
  • Arachidonic Acid (ARA) – A critical nutrient for cats, included to support skin, immune system and overall health. The ARA is vegan and sourced from Mortierella alpina through fermentation.
  • Yeast-Free – Nutritional yeast has been removed, making the supplement completely yeast-free.
  • Natural Mixed Tocopherols – Added to support freshness and stability.
  • Oxygen Absorbers – Included in packaging to protect nutrients.
  • Concentrated Formula – A small amount is required in each recipe (see Feeding Amounts). 

VegeCat™ has been used by the compassionate caretakers of numerous cats throughout the world over many years.

Note: Most recipes still naturally include nutritional yeast for flavour. If your cat prefers it, you can add nutritional yeast alongside VegeCat™ in a 1:1 ratio.

Why prepare homemade cat food with VegeCat™?

1. Complete and balanced nutrition

With VegeCat™, your cat receives a diet that is nutritionally complete when used in the provided recipes.
Without supplementation, homemade cat food may lack essential nutrients such as Taurine, Vitamin D, Vitamin A, and Arachidonic Acid, nutrients that are difficult to supply consistently without a supplement.

2. Full control over ingredients

Homemade meals allow you to choose ingredients your cat enjoys and avoid those they don’t. Examples:

  • Include: sweet potatoes, green peas
  • Exclude: corn, wheat

3. Variety

Homemade cooking lets you offer different flavours and ingredients, keeping meals exciting and encouraging a good appetite while providing balanced nutrition.

4. Cost-effective

Preparing cat food at home and supplementing with VegeCat™ is one of the most affordable feeding methods. One bottle lasts a long time and is significantly more economical than many commercial kibble options. See Duration section below.

    VegeCat™ and Urinary Health

    There are some considerations for urinary health. Cats should have an acidic urine pH of 6.0 to 6.5. It is recommended to test the urine at home or at a veterinarian’s office before switching the diet and about 3 weeks after transitioning to a new diet, then periodically after – twice in the first year and at least yearly after. If alkaline urine is a problem, add cranberry powder or vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to the diet.
