## What is PickyCat?

PickyCat is a wet food discovery and meal logging app for cats.

• Identify foods from photos and log meals with ease, including supplements such as fish oil and lactoferrin  
• Learn your cat’s preferences and get personalized wet food recommendations  
• Explore 5,000+ foods from 200+ brands with detailed filters  
• Compare protein and fat intake across foods and with other cats  
• Track weight, calories, your wishlist, and food inventory  

1. A TASTE PROFILE FOR EVERY CAT

PickyCat builds an evolving Taste DNA from your cat’s real eating behavior.

• Discover preferred proteins, textures, brands, and richness  
• See which foods get devoured—or ignored  
• Create separate profiles for multiple cats  
• Get personalized recommendations with clear reasons  
• Identify potential allergens and ingredients to avoid  

Recommendations consider protein, texture, ingredients, brand, richness, organ meat, thickeners, and more. PickyCat can flag potential allergens using ingredient lists and your records, but it cannot diagnose allergies or medical conditions.

2. LOG MEALS IN SECONDS

Record what happens at every meal:

• How much your cat ate  
• Whether the food was cold, warm, or room temperature  
• Supplements added, including fish oil, lactoferrin, taurine, or CoQ10  
• Whether a topper was needed  
• Loose stool, vomiting, or chin acne after eating  

Every entry updates your cat’s Taste DNA. Use the calendar to review feeding history and Analytics to track protein, fat, and other feeding data. Compare results across products and with other cats.

3. EXPLORE 4,000+ WET FOODS

Browse products from 200+ brands with ingredients and nutrition at a glance. Search by name, sort by match score, or filter by:

• Protein and meat category  
• Texture and sauce style  
• Brand and personalized match  
• Gums and other thickeners  
• Tapioca, potato, and other starches  
• Peas, lentils, grains, and cellulose  
• By-products and their ingredient-list position  
• Published phosphorus values  
• Calcium-to-phosphorus ratios  
• Ingredients you choose to include or exclude  

Save promising foods to your wishlist and export it as an image. Add purchased cans to your inventory and track their expiration dates.

4. UNDERSTAND EVERY CAN

PickyCat makes product labels easier to read and compare.

• View ingredients and guaranteed analysis  
• Compare protein, fat, fiber, moisture, and other published values  
• See dry-matter values when enough information is available  
• Check texture, richness, and sauce level at a glance  
• Browse similar foods and products from the same brand  
• Review the source and date of product information  

WHY PICKYCAT?

PickyCat focuses on the unique cat in front of the bowl. The more meals you log, the better PickyCat understands your cat’s taste!

PRIVACY FIRST

No account is required. Cat profiles, meal history, wishlist, inventory, and preferences are stored on your device by default.

Optional anonymous sharing can help improve recommendations. It is off by default and excludes names, photos, contact information, location, device identifiers, and free text. You can disable it at any time.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

PickyCat supports meal logging and food discovery. It does not diagnose allergies, medical conditions, or nutritional deficiencies, and it does not replace veterinary advice.

Ingredient and nutritional data come from manufacturers and may change. Always check the current package label, especially for cats with medical or dietary needs.

### 5/5 — Love it！

*2026-08-30*

The app is amazing! I want to make sure my cat gets the healthiest canned food, but I’m always too lazy to read through all the ingredients myself. I also want to find the right balance of protein and other nutrients. I love the idea of easy tracking, personalized recommendations, and having a comprehensive selection of brands all in one place!
