Stella & Chewy's Freeze Dried Cat Food,Snacks Super Meal Mixers 18-Ounce Bag with YHS Pets Food Bowl - Made in USA (Salmon & Chicken)

My cat eats Instinct duck for breakfast and Loves it. We give Reveal tuna for dinner. That is a one ingredient food. Gave her a good dry food but wanted this since I knew it would be better for her. Did not mix it with water. She would not go near it. Mixed it with her dry food and she refused that also. Left it down for her for 3 days then when we got one morning and went to kitchen the bowl was empty. Now she LOVES it. It took her 3 days. I am so glad she loves it since I believe it is a healthy food. This is the Duck Duck food.

Cats are obligate carnivores. They require animal protein and a high-fat diet, without carbs. They aren't people. They don't need canned chicken soup. They shouldn't be eating meat by-product cereal.Raw food, balanced towards what they realistically hunt and eat, is your best chance at giving your pet a long and healthy life. That means: no peas and carrots, no corn, no pointless filler ingredients.On a raw diet, their teeth won't degrade as quickly, their coats will remain soft and shiny, and they will likely outlive their expected expiration date by a number of years.If you're starting out with a cat who hasn't been raised on dry food, and if you can afford it, this is the way to go. Transitioning isn't impossible, but just be prepared to burn some money on wasted attempts, until you're successful.While I would like to see more animal blood content, Stella and Chewy's Freeze Dried has continually impressed me and has delivered great results in terms of overall animal health.Most people I've known with pets as old as mine have started with expensive medical treatments or have had to put down their animals for diminishing quality of life. Dry food is especially rough on their bodies, and exists only as a convenience for humans.I've had my cat on this diet, almost exclusively, for about twelve years, and he's in great health, has lots of energy, and still acts like a much younger cat.I do prefer the Vital Cat (formerly "Vital Essentials") food, slightly, for the even simpler formula and added blood and bone content. It is a more realistic simulation of caught prey; it just made it harder for my senior cat to poop, given how efficiently it was digested (think owl pellets). For a younger cat, it's probably still fine.My one criticism of Stella and Chewy is that the rabbit formula is extremely expensive; but it's a single-source protein on a low-yield animal, and is supposedly U.S.-sourced (most rabbit meat comes from China).Definitely give this food a try. My only advice within the brand is to avoid fish (which is not an animal your cat would ever really hunt or eat).

My 3 cats love it! I actually use it as treats along with lots of fresh water. All 3 are now water drinkers any time of day thanks to this grain free product which offers great sources of protein. My cats are fed both wet and dry 2x daily - this offered @ noon. Will continue to use.

I've had a variety of cats for the past 25 years and I have never seen a cat get so excited about their food. We have a cat that is 1.5 years old and once we gave her this she refused all wet cat food and I've never had a cat do that! The downside is it's very expensive, so I only give her a few pellets in the AM and the PM. I give them to her dry and I provide lots of water. It's a cool and interesting product.

I am so disappointed that over half of the bag is crumbs. Last bag was great. This bag I will end up throwing most of it away. Value for the money on this bag is not good at all.

The pieces are big. One cat likes it. Other one mustn’t like the Salmon smell. I have to chicken and salmon. Bag will last a long time.

My cat has become very picky in her old age, but since we have found these she is a happy cat! The problem is they are usually soft little nuggets I can break up for her but lately we have had a problem with them being hard and stale, and she does not like them. I took two bags back to our local pet store, then tried another one and finally got a good bag. I thought I would try Amazon, and even got the bigger bag, and unfortunately they were too hard also. None of them are expired, I am hoping they didn’t change the formula. They are expensive, and I am willing to pay, but only if they continue to be soft and satisfy my cat.

The cat still eats and likes it.,but it's half dust. Not Stella's fault but Amazon's. As with other food items can't return opened or torn bags. Need to stop buying food from Amazon
