Why Fresh Meat Makes All the Difference in Pet Nutrition

The Foundation of Good Health Begins with Real Food

When you look at your pet’s happy face, wagging tail, or playful leap, it’s easy to forget that every bit of energy comes from one place — their diet. Nutrition is the foundation of long-term health, and it all starts with the quality of ingredients inside the bowl.

At Fabled, we believe that fresh meat or fish should always be the first ingredient. Why? Because real, whole ingredients fuel pets the same way they fuel us — with complete, natural nutrition.

1. What Makes Fresh Meat Different?

In many commercial pet foods, the protein source often comes from meat meal or by-products — highly processed forms of animal tissue that lose most of their natural nutrients during rendering.

Fresh meat, on the other hand, is minimally processed and naturally rich in essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. It offers:

• Higher bioavailability: Your pet’s body absorbs nutrients more efficiently.

• Better taste and texture: Pets instinctively prefer the flavor and aroma of fresh meat.

• Superior protein quality: Supports strong muscles, tissue repair, and growth.

That’s why every Fabled recipe begins with real chicken, lamb, or fish, not dehydrated powders.

2. Supporting Lean Muscle and Healthy Weight

Protein is the building block of your pet’s body. The right kind of protein — from fresh, high-quality meat — helps maintain lean muscle, supports healthy metabolism, and keeps energy levels stable throughout the day.

Whether you have an energetic puppy or a calm indoor cat, Fabled’s protein-rich formulas provide the right balance of nutrients without excess calories.

Our recipes are crafted with moderate fat levels to suit the needs of urban pets, who may not always get the same level of outdoor activity. The result? Strong, fit, and happy companions.

3. Gentle on Digestion — Kind on Sensitive Tummies

Pets with sensitive stomachs often struggle to digest low-quality proteins and fillers. Fresh meat, rich in natural moisture and free from artificial preservatives, is much easier to digest.

At Fabled, we enhance our recipes with natural prebiotics and dietary fibers, supporting a healthy gut microbiome. A strong digestive system helps pets absorb nutrients better, resulting in:

• Shinier coats

• Firmer stools

• More consistent appetite

• Stronger immunity

A happy tummy leads to a happy pet — and that’s what Fabled stands for.

4. Taste That Pets Truly Crave

Ever noticed how your pet reacts when you open a fresh pack of Fabled food? That’s because they can smell the difference.

Our recipes are made with freshly prepared meat cooked gently to retain natural flavor. We don’t rely on artificial flavorings — just the goodness of real ingredients that pets instinctively love.

At mealtime, you’ll see the difference: cleaner bowls, wagging tails, and that contented post-meal nap that every pet parent adores.

5. The Fabled Difference — Crafted for Urban Pets

City pets have unique lifestyles — shorter walks, indoor playtime, exposure to pollution, and varying activity levels. Fabled understands these modern needs.

Each recipe is scientifically balanced with superfoods like:

• Flaxseed & salmon oil for skin and coat health

• Blueberries & rosemary for antioxidants

• Chicory root for gut health

Together, these ingredients make Fabled more than just pet food — it’s complete, balanced nutrition for modern pets.

6. Fresh, Ethical, and Transparent

Fabled’s commitment goes beyond quality. We are transparent about every ingredient we use and where it comes from. Our fresh meat is sourced responsibly, ensuring every bowl you serve contributes to your pet’s health and a cleaner, more sustainable planet.

We believe that pet food should be honest, traceable, and made with love — because pets deserve the same food integrity that we expect for ourselves.

Freshness You Can Trust

Choosing fresh meat-based pet food is not a luxury — it’s an act of love. It means choosing better digestion, healthier skin, stronger muscles, and longer, happier lives.

When you choose Fabled, you’re not just filling a bowl; you’re fueling a story — one of vitality, trust, and care. Because every pet deserves food that’s crafted with honesty and heart.
