B&H Lifes is a Japanese pet product supplier, best known for its non-alcoholic drinks for cats and dogs. The late 2013 launch of their "wine" for cats became an international story and was carried by cat and wine columns and magazines.[1][2][3][4][5] Only one thousand of the 180mL cat wine bottles were put on sale for the 2013 Christmas season, at 399 yen (US$4) each.
