Stella & Chewy's Freeze-Dried Raw Cat Dinner Morsels - Premium Duck & Goose Recipe with 98% Cage-Free Poultry & Organs - Natural Grain-Free Cat & Kitten Food - Made in USA - 18 oz

I don’t usually write reviews, but I am really amazed with this food. Please read till the end as I will also explain what I have noticed. I have an EXTREMELY picky cat who refuses wet food. I’ve tried to transition her twice, and each time has failed. I started giving my cats Stella and Chewys raw coated kibble (chicken) first, and top it with two of these. It has been a week, and now my picky cat is eating it with added water in the food bowl, which is HUGE because she has always refused anything wet. I believe this will get her to eventually transition to wet canned foods.lastly, my cats are acting like they are kittens again and being lovey and extremely playful. They have so much more energy which is visibly noticeable. Stella & Chewys is QUALITY food. It is also safe from the bird flu (you can read more on their processing on their website) I had to take my cats to an appointment recently, and their labs were absolutely perfect. I know cats are healthier on wet food and that is ideal, but if I had to pick a dry food, or a food to transition with, this is the one. I hope this brand continues for a long time because I definitely will be using their wet food down the line.

My cat developed food sensitivities and could no longer eat regular proteins. So we tried nearly every wet rabbit food under the sun to get her to eat. She wanted nothing to do with any of it. On an off chance she'd eat this one, we gave it a go. Success! She eats it! We rehydrate the next day's worth in a small container over night so it's super soft and easily breaks up. I tried the pork on once, but that one stayed hard even with overnight soaking and she wouldn't touch it.I did a bad batch once, but they have great customer service and sent me a new bag. Definitely recommend this product.

I use this as a tool, grind it into dust, then soak and hydrate, simmer for a bit and add their medicine. Even those smarty pants that just know and don’t even bother to smell their medicine filled food won’t think twice about this one, they just eat it right up.If you give them these as they are, make sure they have plenty of water at all times (extra) because it wil dehydrate them as would any freeze dried foods.

So my older cat doesnt have many teeth left an with wet food she started to have stomach issues and pooping all over since i dont think she could tell when it was a fart or poo. So i started using these freeze dried bites with a little wet food and her meds an she loves it. shes getting her fiber protein an everything she needs. price is a bit much for the amt but ill take it as a win. makes me want a freeze dryer so much more. Since i make her wet food homemade . but if your kitty is picky cant chew the kibble or needs more to their diet..this is a game changer. so 4 stars only reason i didnt give 5 is again small bag for price.

My cat isn’t typically picky- we found him as a kitten in a Disneyland parking lot, so he’s kind of a laid back, carefree guy who will eat almost anything (he loves turkey legs and churros, but that’s not sustainable).The problem is, nothing excited him, food-wise. He always seemed to be intensely bored with both his kibble and his wet food lol. The only thing that ever interested him was when we opened of a can of tuna, and we know that’s not good for him.Getting home from In n Out the other day, I watched as my cat strolled over to his bowl, maintaining eye contact with me the entire time (maybe glancing at the bag in my hand for emphasis), and the look on his face very clearly said, “In n Out? Seriously? But for me this kibble stuff AGAIN? What. Ever.”So I decided to look for something that would give him some food joy, and $10 was definitely not too much to spend in my quest.SHOCKING results. Like you know when you order something weird on Amazon and you can imagine both the best and the worst possible outcomes? This was the best possible- plus a rainbow and a unicorn.My cat LOVES this food. He is sitting outside of my bedroom door right now staring at me, something he hasn’t done a lot since he was young (don’t miss it that much tbh), waiting for his breakfast. He also follows me to the kitchen, tries to redirect me if I get distracted, and puts both paws up on the cupboard door and talks to me when he knows I’m rehydrating the chicken. I obviously can’t be certain, but I think what he’s saying is, “It’s about time! Real food! thank you thank you thank you! I love you so much!”Is this magic? Totally worth $10!We put a few in water and let them sit for a minute, then use a fork to break them up to a consistency that looks a lot like cooked ground turkey. If there’s extra water, my cat thinks it’s gravy, and he laps that up, which is also good for hydration.No smell!I believe some people felt the price was too high, but we only use 3 or 4 of the nuggets for our huge beast of a cat. Once re-hydrated, we mix it with his kibble to help slow down his eating (because he was totally scarfing this stuff at first). The $10 bag has lasted a week, and there’s plenty left.This is one of those purchases I felt obligated to write a review for, because the world is a really stupid place, and we all need to stick together and share the genuinely good (not being paid to say that, I have no stake in this), just really good, stuff :) :)

We have this food auto shipped every few weeks. This is the only non prescription food that only has rabbit! This is very important to me because my cat is allergic to other proteins.There can be some variations in the color and size of the food pieces. This has not had an impact on how well it absorbs water or whether or not my cat eats it.I do have to send the food through the blender after I add water to it which is a little annoying. I think that says more about my cat’s preferences than the food tho.
