The PETCO Foundation, since its inception in 1999, has raised in excess of $34 million for support of more than 3,500 non-profit animal welfare programs across the nation. In 2004, PETCO launched the "Think Adoption First" program, which encourages the adoption of companion animals as opposed to the outright purchase of them.

The line contains a variety of brands of natural foods that offer no additives or preservatives, and includes only pure/natural ingredients.
