who we are

At KATTOVIT, the focus is on love for animals. Our family-run company Finnern has been developing high-quality, nutritious food without unnecessary additives for over 40 years. Our goal: the well-being of your cat through species-appropriate nutrition and first-class ingredients.

Our values

Love of animals is what drives KATTOVIT

At KATTOVIT, we feel a deep connection with our pets. This love of animals guides us in everything we do - from developing high-quality pet food to selecting first-class ingredients. Animal-friendly husbandry is our top priority because the well-being of cats is important to us.

The brand is backed by the independent family business Finnern from Verden, which has been on the market as a traditional company for over 40 years. With our leading brands Miamor and KATTOVIT in the cat food sector and RINTI in the dog food sector, we set standards in the premium pet food segment. These brands form the foundation of the Finnern product line. We represent the philosophy that high-quality food for our four-legged friends should primarily consist of fresh meat and carefully selected, nutritious ingredients. In short, we guarantee that our products are free of unnecessary additives that are not essential for our animals.

No to animal testing

At KATTOVIT we focus on animal-friendly product development.

Our development philosophy is based on the fact that every new food and every innovative recipe first passes the critical palate of our own cats. These in-house taste tests ensure that we only offer products that are not only nutritious, but also extremely tasty for your loyal companions. At the same time, it proves how confident we are in the quality of our products.

To support our assessments, we also include feedback from cat owners across Germany via household panels. This method allows us to capture a wide range of opinions and preferences, so that our products enjoy high acceptance among a wide range of cats.

Only after our internal tests and reviews by external pet owners show consistently positive results do we decide to add a new product to our range. This way we ensure that every KATTOVIT product not only meets our high standards, but also wins the hearts (and stomachs) of cats.

Conscious feed production

At KATTOVIT, all raw materials come from animals that are also intended for human consumption. By using the entire usable animal (with the exception of claws, hooves or feathers, for example), we use valuable resources efficiently and responsibly.

Packaging with foresight

Our almost completely recyclable cans are a testament to our long-standing commitment to sustainable packaging. In addition, we are continuously improving our packaging processes, for example by reducing the size of packaging bags or using thinner cardboard. We are currently converting our pouches to monomaterial packaging to increase recyclability.

Broad commitment to sustainability

Our commitment extends far beyond the production processes. From the use of renewable energy in our office buildings to supporting local animal shelters and a paperless office routine, we focus on sustainability in every area of ​​our company - which underlines our comprehensive approach.

Our claim

Special cat food that tastes good

What use is the healthiest special diet if the cat doesn't like the food?

To ensure that cats enjoy eating unfamiliar special food, the individual varieties of our special food are composed in such a way that a high level of acceptance is guaranteed.

Often, the special diet must remain the main component of the daily diet because the cat's health problems are usually not temporary. For this reason, KATTOVIT is designed as a complete food in the sense of a complete feed. It therefore contains everything that is needed to maintain health.

KATTOVIT is only available in specialist shops to ensure expert advice and uncomplicated purchasing.

Only the best for our loved ones!

frequently asked Questions

Today, cats kept as pets have a much higher life expectancy and are subject to more intensive veterinary care than in the past.

If health problems arise, you should seek specialist advice. The vet's diagnosis can have consequences for certain health problems in terms of nutrition. For example, reducing the protein content in the diet can relieve the strain on the kidneys. Limited kidney function (renal insufficiency) is often simply due to age, and with a kidney-friendly diet, even senior cats can enjoy their old age.

Due to intensive development work, the latest results from the field of veterinary research in Europe are continually implemented in the production of the individual KATTOVIT product groups and varieties.

Please note:

You should always remember that KATTOVIT is not a medicine and that the special diet can only help and support, but has no healing power in the medical sense. It is therefore important to always consult a vet in acute cases. Even when feeding your cat a diet food, you should take your cat to your vet regularly for check-ups.

Wellbeing is a trend in all areas of life and is also making its way onto the pet food shelves. Targeted healthy nutrition and preventive protection against disease are coupled with the emotional desire to do something good for the cat. This gives the choice of food an additional meaning, similar to the superfoods on our own menu. KATTOVIT Vital Care is tailored to the specific needs of your furry friend. The balanced complete food was developed with nutrition experts and combines functional nutrition with an acceptable taste. Our health maintenance product range is available in the varieties Hair & Skin, Digestive, Sterilised, Indoor and Anti Hairball.
