With the price of meat rising rapidly, people who cook at home for their pets are facing budget challenges. We talk to pet lovers who run small, medium and large pet food businesses about how price changes affect their business, and share tips on how readers can cushion themselves from the economic impact.

Wong Puei Ee cooks for her five Schnauzers – Ocha, Puer, TehC, Cider and Kopi – and a cat named Cendol. She is also the artisanal dog food chef for her company in Kuala Lumpur.
