Cats love this
We have two cats with IBD so we feed rabbit as their protein. These nibs we use in their food puzzles at night. It keeps them busy and entertained and they sleep in so we arenât awakened early! This food is great for food puzzles as it leaves very little crumbs if any and is âcleanâ!

Raw protein, Kitty likes!
Desperately seeking anything for an “appetite impaired” senior cat with multiple dietary requirements. He took to these on day one, refused them on day 2, but is now happily crunching away on a portion as a side dish at every meal. They are puffy, a “soft crunch”? I have also been able to boost protein by pulverizing these biscuits and adding to wet food.

Absolute favorite
My cats LOVE this, itâs their absolute favorite food. I add it as a topper on their wet food and they will wait until itâs on the plate before they eat.

Other flavors are better
This brand is my catâs favorite, but the freeze-dried chicken flavor isnât her top choice. The chicken appears darker than the previous batches Iâve purchased, and Iâm not sure if the color change affects the taste or nutritional value. However, I will continue to buy from this brand as my cat generally enjoys their products.

Great product but too costly
This brand & product is absolutely one of the best health choices for cats regarding kibble. We are leaning out of kibble due to all of the more recent information about the crucial importance of water content for the cats. But our cats still want that kibble! And this is, in my opinion, the best brand, in regard to high quality nutritional value. BUTâ¦.. I had to go to another brand because the cost this company is setting, is ridiculous! So what I try to do is get this occasionally and try to find deals when I can.When I first found this company, over a year ago, we purchased a great deal of kibble and other snacks from this maker but it was costing us a fortune. Itâs very sad that companies get greedy, especially concerning health Products. Hopefully they will find a balance. Hopefully they care about their customers and about fur friends, and will get these prices down. I donât know if they realize how hard it is on people when we are trying to make healthy choices not only for ourselves but also for our sweet fur babies, to get out of the old cycles of toxic food. When companies charge ridiculous amounts, in my opinion, they are not holding their responsibilities in a fully honorable way. They are doing the task of creating healthy products and I understand the cost in that, but integrity is also a part of this.The other product we have decided to move to and have tested with great success is the Nulo brand. Their kibble was seriously 1/5 of the price for twice as much. This speaks a great deal to what I am saying!!

Cats like it!
Cats enjoy the rabbit tidbits. I was skeptical at first, introducing a new food, but they really like it. I mix it in with their normal kibble. No smell, no one has had tummy issues (throwing up or diarrhea). It’s a decent product.

Made my cats sick
I have always fed my cats this brand of food with out any issues and unfortunately this made all 3 of my cats sick and throwing up. I donât know if I got sent a bad batch that was dried too hard or if itâs old?? But the kibble is so rock hard they canât chew it. And sadly I canât return it since there isnât a return option for this food Iâm extremely disappointed ): Iâll just be purchasing this from my local mudbay from now on because the have fresher food there and I would have been able to return it there
