Organic and natural pet foods are animal food products formulated for the consumption of pets. The key ingredients in these products are derived from unprocessed plants and animal fats, such as seafood, cereals, vitamins, minerals, and meat by-products. Organic and natural pet foods are manufactured according to the nutritional requirements of domesticated animals. They are free from genetically modified substances, such as fertilizers, pesticides, synthetic colors, artificial hormones, and antibiotics. Organic food items offer various health benefits to pets, including reducing skin allergies and ailments, minimizing digestive disorders, strengthening bones, and boosting immunity.

The emerging trend of pet humanization is the key factor fueling the Japan organic and natural pet food market growth. Owners are focusing on the health, weight, nutrition, and overall wellness of their pets, on account of which manufacturers are producing high-quality animal food with natural ingredients. Moreover, cats are gaining popularity as preferred pets in the country, which has led to an increase in the sales of premium cat food and treats. This factor is further contributing to the market growth. Additionally, rapid urbanization, the rising number of pet adoption, and the emerging concept of nuclear families are further creating a positive outlook for the market.
