PetMenu™ vs Recipe Books

There’s a growing number of recipe books available for people who want to make their own healthy pet food. That’s not a bad thing at all. However the problem with a book is that it doesn’t know anything about your pet, and it doesn’t know how much the meals will cost to make.

A recipe in a book can guide you in terms of which foods to serve to create a balanced diet but you still have to calculate the right quantities of those foods for your own pet. Every pet is different in terms of age, weight, activity level and body condition and that’s where the PetMenu™ App has a huge advantage - it does all those calculations for you. As your pet’s weight or body condition changes the App automatically adjusts everything.

Food prices fluctuate constantly so a recipe book also can’t tell you what the meal being recommended is actually going to cost to make, or where the cheapest place is to buy the ingredients. PetMenu™ tracks current food prices for each food for each major supermarket brand so the menus generated are always economical to make. If blueberries aren’t in season and are pricey it will swap them with apples instead and so on. PetMenu™ also tells you which is the cheapest store to shop at for all the foods on your list.
