The fur-mily of 11, includes five dogs and six cats. While 04, Liya, Kaya, and Mato join their fur-parents as part of the Goodest family. Geronimo even shared that her first pet, Bukol, was a rescue brought home by her father, Daddy Delfin.</p><div><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=476&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fgoodestpetfood%2Fvideos%2F3029139960580271%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=380&amp;t=0" width="380" height="476" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><em>Video source: Goodest Facebook page</em></div><div><br/></div><p>Much like many Filipino fur parents, Geronimo and Guidicelli take the welfare of their pets seriously. On family trips they would make it a point to bring some, if not all, of their fur babies. Even with their busy schedules, they make time to play, bond, and just be with them.</p><p>For their meals, it is important that it is not only in the likes of their fur babies or filling for, but they also think about what nutritional impact it has on them. Aside from its nutritional impact, it also needs to be low in sodium as excessive sodium may lead to fluid retention, increased blood pressure, and exacerbate existing health problems like <a href="https://vet.tufts.edu/foster-hospital-small-animals/specialty-services/cardiology/heartsmart/heart-disease-nutrition#:~:text=Sodium%2C%20or%20salt%2C%20can%20cause,foods%20used%20to%20give%20medications" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">heart failure</a>  or kidney disease. While sodium is essential for electrolyte which impacts nerve and muscle function and fluid balance, it is important to maintain a balanced sodium intake to avoid negative health consequences. </p><p>Most recently power couple Sarah Geronimo and Matteo Guidicelli are the newest ambassadors of Goodest, a local pet food brand that makes meals for both dogs and cats. </p><p>Even before joining Goodest, the couple had long been active in promoting responsible pet care. They have helped organize pet adoption events, offered free vaccination drives, and visited animal shelters. Their social media feeds often show random pet moments from the many places they have visited.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Meal with real ingredients</strong></div><p>Not all pet food is created equal, as some are made of too-processed ingredients or chemicals, which may affect the health of pets. Goodest ensures that each packet is made with real ingredients, offering low-priced meals that are nutritious and easy to serve.</p><p>Each recipe is low in sodium and contains the right level of magnesium to help support kidney and heart health, especially important for adult and senior pets. These nutrients also help reduce the risk of urinary issues, particularly in cats.</p><p>Goodest is proudly made in the Philippines and offers a way for fur parents to give their pets quality nutrition every day.</p><p>It comes in both wet and dry food variants, giving fur parents options for pets who are picky eaters, a curious sniffer, or a cat who changes their mind at every meal.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Goodest for every meal time</strong></div><p>Goodest gives dogs a lot to wag about, as it offers different wet food options to choose from, including:</p><p>- Grilled chicken and liver</p><p>- Beef and liver steak</p><p>- Braised beef with veggies</p><p>For those who prefer dry food, there is a beef and liver dry food for adult dogs, made with real meat and packed with 24% protein to keep them full and fueled for walks, playtime, or guarding the sofa.</p><p>Each meal is made with nutrients that support everyday health:</p><p>- Omega 3 and 6 for a shiny coat</p><p>- Calcium and phosphorus for strong bones and muscles</p><p>- Vitamins and minerals for immunity and energy</p><p>- Fiber to support digestion</p><p>- <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9368958/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Yucca Schidigera</a> also known as the Mojave yucca or Spanish dagger, a natural ingredient that helps reduce stool odor</p><p>Cats however tend to be more moody when it comes to meals, they are known to be picky and hard to please, but Goodest gives fur parents flavorful, and various options that they may enjoy.</p><p>Wet food choices include:</p><p>- Meaty Mackerel</p><p>- Tender Tuna</p><p>- Chicken Chomp</p><p>For dry food, the Tasty Tuna adult cat variant is made with real fish and delivers 34% protein, higher than the minimum standard. A complete daily diet for cats who prefer dry food, but need serious nutrition.</p><p>Every recipe is crafted with nutrients that help keep cats looking and feeling their best: Omega 3 and 6 for healthy skin and coats, Taurine and vitamin A to support vision, Arginine for kidney function, and Yucca Schidigera to help manage litter box odor.</p><p>Vet-formulated, low in sodium, tasty, and affordable. Made with care, it reflects the same love they show their pets, which is why it is G-approved (Geronimo and Guidicelli approved).</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:750px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-workbench-api.abs-cbn.com/api/upload-raw/20250728150716/Vertical%202ft%20x%203ft_Masterbrand.jpg" style="width:750px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left"><em>Photo source: Goodest</em> </span></span></span></div><p>To learn more about Goodest pet products and get tips on pet care, visit their <a href="https://goodestpetfood.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a>.</p>
