<div>We want to keep you informed about supply challenges affecting our rabbit products. We are experiencing intermittent shortages in the whole rabbit we use in our products, and because of our strict sourcing standards, availability of our rabbit recipes may be limited over the next couple of months. We&#x2019;re doing everything we can to secure the raw materials needed, but in the meantime, we&#x2019;re prioritizing production of our 3lb rabbit sliders for dogs &amp; cats to help keep them available. Other rabbit recipes may be produced less often and could be temporarily out of stock. If your pet depends on rabbit, our pork recipes are a strong alternative. Pork is a single-source novel protein that&#x2019;s well tolerated by many sensitive pets and available in several formats. We&#x2019;ll share updates as soon as we know more. Thanks for your understanding while we navigate this shortage.</div><div> </div><div style="line-height: 1;">July 2026 Update: We are continuing to prioritize our frozen rabbit products so the Rabbit Super Boosters are not currently in production. This product is not discontinued and is intended to return when our raw material availability is more stable. We are so sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.&#xA0; </div>We do have some positive news to share on frozen raw rabbit availability. We&apos;ve received a replenishment of whole rabbit and are back in production, with frozen raw rabbit inventory (3lb sliders, both dog and cat) expected to be initially available this month. (July)We also have another rabbit replenishment arriving toward the end of the month (July),&#xA0;which should allow us to expand availability further, potentially including our 6lb patties and Base Blends. Beyond that, we&apos;ve secured additional long-term whole rabbit that we expect will help resolve the recurring shortages for the foreseeable future.We appreciate your patience through this, and we&apos;re glad to see rabbit getting back on track. August 2026 Update:&#xA0;Orders are starting to make their way to regional distributors. Depending on transit and receiving timelines, Rabbit SKUs may not be available to some retailers until the mid/end of the month.&#xA0; August 2026 Update (2): Rabbit Super Boosters are back in production and expected to be available around September-October

Whether you have been with us for years or have only recently discovered Smallbatch, we are truly grateful that you trust us to help nourish the pets you love. That trust is something we never take lightly.Like many families and small businesses, we have felt the weight of the past year of rising costs. Across farming, sourcing, and production, prices have continued to increase, particularly for the high-quality, humanely sourced, and organic ingredients we are committed to using.Price increases are not something we take lightly, and over the past two years we have worked hard to avoid passing these costs on to our customers. However, we are no longer able to absorb all of these increases and will be implementing a price adjustment on select items effective March 16, 2026.We will never compromise on ingredient integrity, safety, or nutrition to reduce costs. Protecting the quality of our food matters deeply to us. Even with this change, we will continue to absorb a significant portion of these rising costs ourselves.We also remain committed to supporting the independent pet retailers that serve our community. Our pricing policies are designed to help maintain fair and consistent pricing, and our fully funded Buy 12, Get 1 Free loyalty program will continue to be available at participating stores.Smallbatch was built on a simple promise: to make the most nutritious food possible for pets, with honesty, care, and respect for the people who choose us. That promise has not changed.Thank you for being part of our community, for supporting what we do, and for giving us the opportunity to care for your pets; a privilege we never take for granted.With gratitude, Smallbatch Team
