About Natalie Soonthornswad

Natalie’s love for animals goes back to her childhood (virtually every photo of her includes at least one cat except this one). This devotion to animals has led her on a life-long quest to understand animal nutrition and how to feed our pets the best food possible.

Natalie has over 15 years of experience in the pet food industry, and opened The Happy Beast in 2014. When not at the store, you can find Natalie hiking the trails with her dogs, or curled up on the couch with at least a couple of cats.
