    Currently, the changing relationship between pets and tutors has generated interest in food alternatives, which are constantly growing. One of them is natural food, in which, in general, products intended for human consumption are used, such as: meats, fruits, vegetables, eggs, fats and dairy products. These foods can be presented as: extruded, pasteurized, cooked and raw, and have been modified to satisfy different consumption habits, prioritizing the nutrients required by the animal at the moment. The main reasons that lead tutors to change the ration for this type of feeding are: not understanding industrialized food labels, lack of option for a prescription diet in a given clinical situation, personal eating behavior, influence of the internet and friends, desire to cooking for your pet and strengthening the human-animal bond. The search for well-being, quality of life and increased longevity has caused changes in the pet food market. This modality is a potential market and emerged to meet the demand of increasingly demanding owners regarding the food and nutrition of their pets. In order for the animal to benefit from natural food, it is essential that the tutor strictly follows all the indications made by the nutritionist veterinarian.
