We believe in transparency, so you can trust that what you’re feeding your pet is wholesome and beneficial. You want the best for your buddy, and so do we – it’s your baby, after all!
Let's dig a little deeper
Curious about the origin of the name “Higgie’s”? Well, here’s the inspiration behind it! Our store pays tribute to Hygeia, the Greek goddess of health, whose name translates to “wholeness” — a concept we try to emulate on the daily. Our commitment to pet wellness is a direct reflection of her ethos, so we affectionately transformed her name into “Higgie,” and the rest is history!
FUN FACT: Hygeia is often depicted holding a snake, so if you see a few serpents floating around in our imagery, now you know why! But don’t worry, they’re all metaphorical, we promise.
