Astro Loyalty is so thrilled to have a pet health company such as Pets Global as a part of Sharing the Love. Sharing the Love was founded on the idea that all pets deserve to be fed the best foods, rewarded with healthy treats, and nurtured with holistic supplements. Pets Global jumped at the chance to be a part of Sharing the Love since this core belief is also held close to their hearts.
We’re not a pet food company. We’re a pet health company.Pets Global, Inc is an independent holistic wellness company founded on a passion for animal welfare. Being independently owned, we have the freedom to create the best possible pet foods and products for our companions. As avid pet owners, we understand the mutual bond that exists between people and their animal companions, and it’s this connection that drives us to research and produce the highest quality, Physiologically Tuned™ recipes for total pet nutrition. We’ll never compromise our principles for profit, because we believe the right choice of food not only helps pets to live longer, healthier lives, but enriches the lives of their owners as well. And that’s the greatest reward we could ever ask for.
Pets Global has been a part of the Astro Fam since 2015! They are captains of the OG club. Pets Global has long since been an ally of neighborhood pet shops. All of their brands are on Astro, and all of them have Frequent Buyer Programs and Astro Offers. Now that they have joined Sharing the Love they have completed the coveted Shop Local Trifecta!

sWheat Scoop joins Astro Loyalty and launches a NEW Frequent Buyer Program in the USA and Canada!
Whether you want to follow the science or follow your heart, sWheat Scoop litter is the right choice for your cat, your conscience, and your planet. Made using only farm-grown renewable resources, sWheat Scoop combines the best of both cat litter worlds: it provides the odor-fighting, fast-clumping, easy-scooping, low dust, low-tracking solution you need using the 100% natural, biodegradable, planet-safe ingredients you want. All of which means no matter why you choose sWheat Scoop, you’ve got a lot of reasons to feel good about your choice.“I only buy products from companies that align with my values. Renewable products are important to me and the planet. I love that sWheat Scoop cares about that.” ~ Kerri, sWheat Scoop CustomersWheat Scoop has collaborated with Plastic Bank®, a social enterprise that helps the world stop ocean plastic while improving the lives of collector communities. This year, sWheat Scoop will fund the recovery and repurposing of 120 tons of plastic waste. Astro Loyalty is thrilled to have such an environmentally conscious brand as a part of our growing family of Shop Local Supporters! Cat litter is one of those pet essentials that we can’t always workaround (and yes, I’ve tried to toilet train my cats!). I’m a huge fan of using litter made from sustainable and renewable materials. And having a safely flushable, biodegradable litter cuts down on the need for plastic bags. It’s a win however you look at it! Hands down I prefer it to clay any day. Don’t take my word for it! Check out sWheat Scoops helpful blog article on the topic, “Wheat vs Clay – There’s a Clear Winner“. This is a great blog article to share with your customers while introducing your new Shop Local Frequent Buyer Program. Speaking of, there are several cat-themed holidays in July that would be great platforms on which to announce your new cat litter program to your customers! National Kitten Day is the big one and is this Saturday, July 10th!
