The real winners of this year’s Oscars might be the film stars’ pets, with the famous goodie bags containing gifts aimed at cats and dogs.

Alongside the health and grooming items that traditionally feature in the bags at the Academy Awards, there are more lavish items such as holidays. 

But while they may not have been on screen, the pets — who surely must have a taste for the finer things in life — will be appreciating some of the gifts.

For cats, especially those with environmental concerns, there are complimentary bags of raw dehydrated super food from organic Canadian brand Smack. 

And dogs are not left out either — although not in a conventional way. The vegan dog food company V Dog has pledged to send 10,000 meals to Peta’s Global Compassion Fund.

The goodie bags are given to the ceremony’s host as well as everybody up for an acting or director gong. They are called Everyone Wins bags as the PR company Distinctive Assets — and not the Academy — puts them together.

Around 70 companies pitched their products for inclusion and paid $4,000 (£3,140) for the privilege of giving their item to an actor.

This is good news for Robert De Niro, who claims to have so many little dogs that he does not even know all of their names. Sadly, none of Daniel Radcliffe’s 12 dogs will be able to profit because unlike De Niro, he has not been nominated for an Oscar.

But aside from the pet goodies, here is what is in this year’s Oscars goodie bag.

What's inside the Oscars goodie bag this year?

Wellness products are, as ever, the main component of the bag and include items such as liver pills and pro-glutathione supplements. Glutathione plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including tissue building and repair, making chemicals and proteins needed by the body, and strengthening the immune system.

Holidays are perhaps the biggest attraction in the goodie bags. One is in a Swiss chalet, another is a holistic wellness retreat, and a third offers three nights on the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy,.

Also included in the bags are electrical goods such as grills and blenders. Some cheaper items include cookies, gummy sweets, gin and tequila.
