This is the best summary I could come up with:

Czech start-up Bene Meat Technologies is the first to win European Union registration for laboratory-grown meat for use in pet food and plans to boost production to make up to several metric tons per day next year, the company said on Wednesday.

A number of firms are racing globally to develop commercially viable lab-grown meat and fish products to appeal to consumers concerned about ethical issues and the environmental impact of livestock farming, a major source of greenhouse gas emissions.

"Today we have become the first company globally that has an official authorisation for the production and sale of cultivated meat for cats and dogs," Managing Director Roman Kriz told Reuters.

Kriz said the firm, like others, used cells from live animals, which grow in a vessel known as a bioreactor, fed by a supply of nutrients.

He said apart from ethical and environmental issues, another benefit was that lab-grown meat was made under full control, while a consumer could not be 100% certain about what a farm animal ate all its life.

The company is in talks with pet food makers on supplies, but also aims to work with them to potentially set up production lines at their current facilities.
