Vital Essentials® Freeze-Dried Raw Beef & Chicken Entree & Mixer Cat Food Crunchy Nibs, 12 oz

Our Cats Love Them But Crazy Money Unless You Shop The Sack-sized Option. That about covers it. Our cats love these and the pork variety. They are 97% from a rabbit, but understand that this means from the spleen and liver, not the muscle meat. They do not smell bad either. Now we know our cats like them, I buy the biggest sack possible for something approaching and economy of scale. These small packs are crazy money.

My ginger cat LOVES these. I use them as treats or a few on top of dinner. Some are longer 1/2inch and otherssmaller- which is an ideal variety. he crunches thru bigger ones & gulps the smaller. NOT easy to crumble like freeze drued chicken ones. So for me perfect! no smell and last very well in cupboard for weeks & weeks!

My cat absolutely loves this! She gets so excited every time I open the bag. The quality is excellent — the pieces are fresh and clean, and the amount you get is really generous. It's such great value for the price. I'm really happy with this purchase and will definitely be buying again!

Our cats absolutely enjoy coming to meal time. Their weight seems to have balanced out and all are at a healthy range. Their coats are shiny and of seasonal thickness. We are very happy with how well they eat and aren't leaving food in their individual bowls.

I buy the soft nibs version of this product. My cats go bonkers over that one. I like to crush it and sprinkle it over there raw food for extra protein and taste. It also helped transition my cats from dry to raw. I love that it is soft and pliable, making it versatile for any meal. I know some people complained about the size and their cats couldn't eat it, but I think it is better as a topper. You can also soak it in water if you prefer wet over dry. With all the success I have with that version, I decided to give this a go. I can see the appeal for people who wanted a smaller, crunchier version for their cats, but this was not a hit with mine. Some of them didn't want to chew it, had difficulty chewing, or had no interest whatsoever. I was hoping they would like the crunch since they used to eat dry and or give them variety. But nope. They want their soft nibs! Both are good products. A little pricey, but worth it for your fur babies! The ingredients are great, with meat as the main factor, with only one filler as a preservative. Which is huge when comparing this to other brands.Overall, I am quite happy with this the other version of this product and it has become a staple in my household.

My cats totally enjoy these nuggets, I use them as supplementary treats, and also feed them all of the other vital essential rabbit in their diet

These nuggets were way too hard for my cat to chew. Although she’s only two years old, I worry about it, breaking off her teeth. Try to rehydrated, but she wanted nothing to do with it. I put it in the high-speed blender and crunched it up quite a bit, maybe now I can sprinkle it on her wet food, not sure if she will like it or not, did not want to waste the money on this product.

I don’t understand all the great reviews on this food. The cat food pellets are so hard, I’m pretty sure they will break my cat’s teeth. But no worries because neither my cats nor my dog will eat them. Sadly, this food is non-refundable.
