Abstract

A packaged wet pet food product comprises a flexible container body and an integrated dispenser head for the storing and dispensing of wet pet food, specifically wet cat food or wet dog food. The flexible container body can be manually grasped and squeezed in order to deform the container body and force wet pet food stored therein to be forced through a series of exit ports formed in the dispenser head. The exit ports combine to essentially define a sieve, with the wet pet food automatically breaking into randomly sized pieces or extruded sections during dispensing, thereby advantageously avoiding the need to separately chop the pet food apart prior to consumption. The package is preferably sized to store enough pet food for multiple feedings, with the dispenser head including a cap or cover for sealing the container between uses.
