Made by Nacho Brings the Kitchen to the Cat
In 2021, world-famous chef Bobby Flay looked at his Maine Coon cat, Nacho, and realized something was missing. While Bobby was cooking gourmet meals in his restaurant, Nacho was eating boring, industrial brown pellets. As a lifelong cat lover, Flay knew that cats are picky eaters with specific biological needs. He decided to team up with his own cat to create a brand that combined culinary expertise with feline nutrition. The result was Made by Nacho™, a line of food that treats cats like the connoisseurs they are.
Most cat food companies treat cats like small dogs. They use the same bland ingredients and dry textures. Made by Nacho understands that cats are different. They are obligate carnivores who crave moisture and flavour complexity. Bobby Flay worked with Dr. Katja Lang, a leading veterinarian, to ensure every recipe was not only delicious but also nutritionally complete. They spent two years taste-testing hundreds of variations until Nacho himself gave his paw of approval.
This brand is for the owner who cooks with love and wants their cat to experience that same joy. It is for the person whose cat turns their nose up at pate but laps up gravy. It is for the cat parent who worries about kidney health and wants to see their pet drink more water. Made by Nacho bridges the gap between a home-cooked meal and the convenience of a bag, delivering restaurant-quality ingredients to your cat's bowl.
Why Made by Nacho Works
-
Chef-Inspired Flavour
We use real bone broth in almost every recipe. This "secret ingredient" adds a depth of savoury flavour that cats find irresistible, turning even the pickiest eater into a clean-plate club member. -
Hydration First
Cats evolved in the desert and have a low thirst drive. Our bone broth and high-moisture wet foods provide a sneaky way to get more water into your cat's diet, protecting their kidneys and urinary tract. -
Responsibly Sourced Protein
We strictly use cage-free chicken, grass-fed beef, and sustainably caught salmon. We never use mystery meats or by-product meals, ensuring your cat gets clean, digestible muscle meat. -
Nacho's Approval
Every single recipe was taste-tested by Nacho Flay himself. If he didn't eat it, we didn't make it. This ensures that our food isn't just healthy on paper but delicious in the bowl.
Top Made by Nacho Formulas
Cage-Free Chicken Bone Broth Topper
This is our signature product. It is a rich, slow-simmered broth made from real chicken bones. It is packed with collagen and protein. You can pour it over dry kibble to soften it and add hydration or serve it on its own as a healthy treat. It is the easiest way to upgrade your cat's dinner from boring to gourmet.
Minced Chicken & Herring Wet Food
Texture matters to cats. This recipe features minced chunks of real meat in a savoury gravy, offering a mouthfeel that mimics fresh prey. The combination of poultry and fish provides a broad spectrum of amino acids. We recommend this for cats who get bored easily and crave variety in their bowl.
Freeze-Dried Raw Protein Treats
These are pure bites of raw meat that have been freeze-dried to lock in flavour and nutrients. They are single-ingredient treats, meaning they are perfect for cats with allergies or sensitive stomachs. You can crumble them over food as a high-value topper or use them to train your cat to do tricks (yes, cats can learn tricks!).

Why Made by Nacho Tastes Better
Made by Nacho™ proves that cat food does not have to be boring. By bringing a chef's palate to pet nutrition, Bobby Flay has created a brand that respects the cat's natural instincts.

Whether you are pouring the Bone Broth Topper or serving the Minced Chicken, you are feeding a meal that is worthy of your feline family member.
