Aiming to halt harm to livestock animals and to the planet, pet food brand Because Animals will soon be launching a lab-grown alternative: Harmless Hunt Mouse Cookies for Cats.
The snacks are made with meat grown from mouse cells, which are non-invasively collected from mice in a procedure that Because Animals compares to an ear piercing. Those mice then 'live the rest of their natural lives in the safest, most comfortable habitat available to them.'
Harmless Hunt Mouse Cookies will be available for preorder as soon regulatory reviews allow. As reported by Fast Company, Chicago-based Because Animals is also working on lab-grown rabbit snacks for dogs.
