Which code does this activity belong in?
Dog and cat food manufacturing encompasses establishments that produce food formulated specifically for dogs and cats from basic ingredients such as grains, oilseed mill products, and meat products. The boundary separates this specialized pet food production from the broader category of other animal food manufacturing, which covers feed for livestock, poultry, and other non-companion animals. The distinction turns on the intended species for consumption rather than the manufacturing process or ingredients used.
