I need to take multiple short lists of varying length and combine them into a single list where each item is in those lists are combined with the previous list. Specifically create a combination of all those lists to create a unique single list. I am open to macros/vb code or whatever but I have been attempting this for a month now and hope the community has a simple solution for me :) Thanks in advance.

Simple example below, and actual data set in attached image.

List 1List 2List 3
CatGreyHealthy
DogBlackNon-Healthy
Bird

Cat Grey Healthy
Cat Grey Non-Healthy
Cat Black Healthy
Cat Black Non-Healthy
Dog Grey Healthy
Dog Grey Non-Healthy
Dog Black Healthy
Dog Black Non-Healthy
Bird Grey Healthy
Bird Grey Non-Healthy
Bird Black Healthy
Bird Black Non-Healthy

Attached is the type of datasets I will start with but have quite a few of these smart part number systems and want to get to a full list of possibilities.

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
This approach uses a helper column.
put
=INDEX(A:A, CEILING(ROW(A1)/COUNTA(B:B),1),1) & " " & INDEX(B:B, 1+MOD((ROW(A1)-1),COUNTA(B:B)), 1)

in E1 and drag down

Then put
=INDEX(E:E, CEILING(ROW(A1)/COUNTA(C:C),1),1) & " " & INDEX(C:C, 1+MOD((ROW(A1)-1),COUNTA(C:C)), 1)
in F1 and drag down.
