Instinct Freeze-Dried Raw Boost Mixers Grain-Free Skin & Coat Health Recipe Cat Food Topper

This is my third review today for instinct products but that’s just how much we love it! Our kitty is very picky and has a hot spot on her back. She usually HATES anything to do with salmon (usually if it’s not chicken you can just forget it all together) but I gambled and got these to see how they worked and she LOVES them! She eats all of these first before she even touches her food and her skin and coat is so much better and she seems to have a lot more energy now that she’s not spending a majority of her day overgrooming!

Starting by saying that I do not ever write reviews. But this was so incredible it would be actually mean of me not to tell other cat parents about it. My cat started having bad dandruff. The vet said it wasn't related to anything underlying. I tried pet wipes (he's still afraid of baths), I've tried fortified kibble food, I've tried special treats, I've tried supplement pills, I've tried powders, I've tried waterless shampoo sprays, I've tried different brushes for his coat and I've tried fish oil in a bottle which worked until he started refusing to eat it. I started to feed my cat fancy all natural human grade food that has all the correct nutrients in it. I was losing my mind because NOTHING Starting by saying that I do not ever write reviews.

I started to feed my cat fancy all natural human grade food that has all the correct nutrients in it. I was losing my mind because NOTHING was working and it was so expensive to keep trying solution after solution. I was on Chewy to buy something else but bought a pack of these to try because they were on sale and I thought why not, I've spent more trying to fix this why not try this for $2. I started by giving him 1 every other day (even tho it's a topper I just didnt know how he would tolerate it) and he liked them. After about a week, I noticed a huge difference in the softness of his coat and noticed my cat wasn't constantly fussing with his coat. I now give him 2-3 on top of his breakfast every day and theres almost NO dandruff. Absolutely incredible. I know every cat is different but I cannot believe I tried so many other things before finding this easy solution. It's been about a month now, and I hope the results stay this way! … more

My cat is a treat fiend, plain and simple. I had to stop giving him his beloved temptations due to stomach issues so now I use a healthy dry food and these mixers as his treats. Now for the size recommendation. I was buying the large bag but since he gets 8 of these a day, the bag lasts for about a month, maybe a bit longer. The last 2 bags I bought started to smell funny after 2 weeks of being opened and he refused to eat them. I'm now switching to the smaller bag. It may cost more in the long run but it is definitely worth it.

In the past I have used several instinct products, including the chicken flavored rawboost mixers and my two cats go absolutely nuts for it. Bought this flavor hoping to help my long haired boy with his fur and it's done great things! They still go crazy for it, and his coat has been extra soft and shiny. Could not recommend this stuff more!

Apparently, these are really good. The trick is allowing all 3 cats to get some. The first cat to the bowel every morning is fat and tries to eat all the boost mixers. So I have been crunching them up and burying them and leave a few on top for her. Hopefully her sisters are getting some as well.

My two girls would not go near their food with this mixed in. They also wouldn't touch it when I tried giving as a treat. Didn't realize I could have tried a sample instead of buying the larger bag. Will donate it to my local shelter so, I guess it wasn't a complete waste of money.

It’s meant to be a good topper but I find that my cat just ignores her dry food and eats these nuggets. The shape is also an annoyance for my cat. They roll perfectly so she has to chase these nuggets around the bowl or the floor. That could be good exercise for some pets but my cat is already too lean. I think the product is great and made of good stuff so I give it to my cat as treats which she’ll eat. Still looking for a good dry food topper.

They crumble easily. Unfortunately my picky 1 yo cat did not care for them. I tried crumbles, little bits, bigger bits for her but it was a no go. My dog who will eat anything thinks they’re great.

wet or dry he loves them on top of his dry food, not just this flavor but all the flavors. Will keep buying from chewy.

I order this to try for my one cat that doesn't seem to like any treat I give my other cats, but loves picking out the pieces of meat shreds in the dry food as a treat. So I thought I would give this a try instead. I was extremely disappointed when instead of it being pieces of kibble in the bag it was a pouch full of dust.
