We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Kate Eydelnant. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Kate below.
Hi Kate, thanks for joining us today. To kick things off, we’d love to hear about things you or your brand do that diverge from the industry standard
Before starting Bobcat Raw Food, I was very uneducated consumer and trusted the shiny marketing of glossy bags I’d bought at large box stores. At the time, I was looking for the best foods I could feed my kitty Tuxy, and I kept running into raw food. At first, the idea didn’t resonate well with me. I later accidentally came across a phenomenal documentary called Pet Fooled, that made me aware of just how different pet and human foods are. The words on labels that seem to mean something, didn’t rally mean much at all in reality. So, I decided to take things into my own hands. I also came across a phenomenal vet online, Dr Karen Becker, who had a wealth of knowledge and information and raw and also cooked diets. And, this is how Bobcat Raw Food was born.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
My main goal is to provide a clean diet to our beloved hyper obligate carnivorous kitties. A food that is no nonsense and made with clean meat ingredients one would use to make their own human food with. For example, the chicken that goes into our formula, I use for my own cooking, as well. A food that follows my own homemade methodology is very important to me!
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
Prior to Bobcat, I always worked a corporate job. Trusting myself to provide for myself and not rely on a corporate paycheck was definitely a challenge. And, it built my confidence tremendously. Plus, offering customers a product their cats thrive on is so heartwarming and builds tremendous confidence and resilience.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
I think in the past I sometimes didn’t follow up after a rejection. However, following up is an absolute key. Sometimes a “no” is in fact a “maybe”, and it is critical to follow up with any “maybes”, that may, in turn, become a “yes”.
