You’ve got a cat, and just like any good pet parent, you’re interested in the latest healthy, beef cat treats option for your kitty. Well, here is the catch-just as concerned about what the packaging looks like as I do about what is in the packet. Cats really do not give two purrs for plastic pollution; world domination is their true game. And humans, well, we being a reasonable sort of creature, simply must do better in relation to this sort of thing. Ever fumbled with ‘eco-friendly’ packaging that looked as if it were some jigsaw from outer space? Me too, pal.
Now, imagine this: your cat is lazily lying on your reusable grocery bag. Irony, innit? Many companies say that their cat treats are green, but not all packaging tells that story. It’s no catwalk! But we do believe in the greater good, as nothing screams I love my furry overlord like some carbon-neutral catnip.
You have your biodegradable wonders, mainly made out of recyclable paper or plant-based materials. These packages are the Houdinis of the refuse world-they disappear without a trace! But then it dawned on the world that some biodegradable material only breaks down properly within industrial composters. Enter eye-roll, right? You feel you are doing earth a solid, only for it to turn out you’ve been fooled like a kitten chasing a laser pointer.
Then, there are the reusable containers. Think about it: nice, clear glass that you can then use for your cat’s next biscuit cache-or your own midnight snack meister stash. Just remember that singular agonizing sound of the jar falling over in the cabinet. Yeah, get ready for a symphony of crashes! But think of the world you’ll be saving by not discarding the 765th bag this year. Just don’t get too excited and turn into a glass hoarder. Cats do love knocking stuff off the shelves, after all.
