Vital EssentialsFreeze-Dried Raw Turkey Meal or Mixer Cat Food Crunchy Nibs, 12 oz

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.

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!

These are little morsels that stink like death…but my 8 yr old Lab eats them up. Well, to be fair he also eats cat turds and rocks. Anyway, he loves the stuff and a vet recommended it.

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.

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.

High quality and one cat loves it but I believe this manufacturer has a corner on the market. I cannot find any other manufacturer with the same ingredients. Is rabbit meat really this expensive? I buy on Subscribe and Save. The expiration date on this month’s order was earlier (by 8 mos) than last month’s order. Expiration dates not consistent and the price fluctuates like lobster. If the price for 12oz stayed closer to what it was in the fairly recent past (about $27) I would give it 5 stars.

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

My cats love rabbit canned or freeze dried raw (Stella chewy brand), all three ignored these. The nuggets are a good size but very very hard and it takes longer to rehydrate. Unfortunately we discovered rather large pieces of bone in at least couple of nuggets out of 7 we rehydrated. I would never give the bones this size to my cats. Even after we put a topper on the nuggets, cats didn't touch these.
