Because of the importance of moisture in a raw diet, Primal recommends rehydrating this product with water or Primal Raw Goat Milk for optimum nutrition absorption. To rehydrate add 1 tablespoon of water or raw goat milk for every nugget, or 1/4 cup for 4 nuggets. For best rehydrating results, break nuggets into small pieces and mix thoroughly to force moisture into product.
-
Feed adult cats the equivalent of 2-3% of their body weight in rehydrated food per day.
Transition slowly. Begin by mixing 1/4 parts freeze-dried to 3/4 parts current diet. Gradually increase amount of freeze-dried daily.
-
Adult Cats: Divide total daily feeding portion into 2 meals.
-
Kittens and pregnant or lactating females: Divide total daily feeding portion into 3-4 meals.

Great quality food! My Cat loves it!
By TheBeesAnkles56 on Jun 5, 2021
My cat was 18lbs on dry kibble. Started giving him this 2 years ago and he’s lost 4lbs! His coat feels amazing. Less stinky stool. Cat is much more hydrated (drinks less water but pees more). I’ve found it Important to brush my cats teeth on soft food diet like this to avoid dental issues. Sometimes nuggets are difficult to crush up, but it’s not big enough of a deal for me to stop feeding it to my cat. He’s literally become annoying over how much he loves this food.

They love it more than gravy lovers
By CarrieSF on May 13, 2021
My cats love the gravy lovers cans, but their digestive system didn’t. Someone recommended Primal Pet nuggets because it’s natural and you can mix a little extra water in it to make it gravy-like. They go nuts now whenever I take the bag out of the freezer and their litter box is less stinky.

Inconsistent
By Lydia on May 26, 2021
I bought 2 bags of Primal's chicken and salmon nuggets. The cat loved the first bag, and refuses to eat the second. From the other comments, I think this brand has a problem with inconsistency in the quality of their pet food

Love this product
By Naidab on May 24, 2021
My shy female loves this product! I use it in small pieces dry for special treats (getting her to be more people friendly) and sometimes wet for a meal or snack. She comes running now when she hears the bag rattle.

2 cats say NO
By JoeVA on Mar 23, 2021
We have two senior cats who are not picky eaters. We wanted a high quality protein food. After some research this Primal freeze-dried product seemed to be a great idea. No matter how we prepared it, they won't touch it. They can be super hungry and they walk away. We prepared it with warm chicken broth; tried to mix it with their favorite dry food; mixed it with their favorite canned food. They eat around the Primal food best they can and leave it behind. We bought two bags and will end up tossing them out. Company should offer a sample bag.

By SketchandBoo on May 5, 2021
It took a while for us to switch from our junk food to our raw diet, but we gobble the chicken and salmon Primal Nuggets right up now!

Doesn’t eat this at all
By Unagi on May 17, 2021
Usually, my pet likes all the freeze dried food. This one he does not eat at all. Besides, it’s very hard to smash.

Not for us
By Yuck on Mar 9, 2021
I tried Primal for our German Shepherd and she loves it. So I decided to get some for our cats. First, while mixing it with water the smell was so strong it made me gag. Second, I put it in front of seven different cats and every last one walked away

By Rusti on Mar 26, 2021
My two cats did not like this combo. Even the male who usually likes everything. They love the rabbit, venison and Pork being their favorite.

Cats love it but recommended amounts are way too low
By Angel on Jan 14, 2021
We fed our cats double the recommended daily for only nugget diet, but still, the vet said they were underweight. We gave them extra and are supplementing with some instinct raw infused kibble and they act and appear much fuller. My cats go crazy for this food at breakfast and dinner, and they eat it all!
