I just got notification that Primal for CATS, rabbit, was in. I tried to order and it said Temporarily out of stock! What’s the deal??

Answer by Peri • Jun 04, 2025
You don’t want it! The new nuggets are orange, smell, greasy and hard. Don’t waste your money!

How many nuggets are in each bag?

Answer by Chewy • Feb 23, 2023
There are 3-4 freeze-dried nuggets per ounce. On average, there will be approximately 16-22 nuggets per 5.5 ounce bag and 42-56 nuggets per 14 ounce bag. Due to variations in protein density and product shape there may be differences in actual nugget count from bag to bag.

what is the percentage of rabbit?

Answer by Chewy • Sep 30, 2022
This recipe contains 92% rabbit, organs and bone. To help protect the confidentiality of Primal formulas and prevent competitor replication, the specific ratios are proprietary and unavailable for distribution.

Once rehydrated how long can it stay out?

Answer by Chewy • Feb 18, 2021
Primal Freeze-dried formulas do not warrant refrigeration in their dry state, served right from the bag. This is due to the shelf-stability of freeze-dried food. However, when serving rehydrated freeze-dried food for your pet to eat, we recommend no more than a two-hour service window for the food to be out of refrigeration.

The instructions say to crumble the chunk of raw food and add some water or broth to moisten. I had a very hard time breaking thebiscuit, but once it broken in half it was easier to crumble. I added the water stirred it up and let it sit for a little bit. I put it down for my cat and when I came back later, it was gone. I assumed he liked it. Hopefully, he will continue to eat the rest of them. You know how cats are!

If I could rate this zero stars, I would. I’m extremely disappointed with this brand. I adopted my cat when she was struggling with gut health issues, and this food was the only thing that helped. However, the quality has significantly declined. It used to be easy to break the pieces apart with my hands, but now they’re as hard as bricks. The packaging has also changed, and I’m starting to feel like there’s less product. I’m switching to another brand because I’ve had enough.

This food used to be amazing. After the company was bought by private equity firm Kinderhook, the quality has been absolutely terrible - super inconsistent - some cubes are so hard I need a nutcracker to break it apart. Others are puffy and crystallized inside and doesn't look or smell right. The price has gone up and up while quality has gone down and down. I fed this to my 3 rescues almost exclusively for years because they had digestive issues. I was willing to spend a lot since they LOVED it and had no stomach issues and small, non-stinky poops. Now they will barely touch it. The color and smell is totally different. Also, the company reduced the amount of protein in the cat formula. I have not found another rabbit food my cats will eat. So once in a while I will try it again, with mixed results. I have contacted the company by phone and email with NO RESPONSE to either. Chewy has been great but I don't want to hold them responsible for Primal's bad faith product. We all know feeding multiple cats with food that works for them all, and that they like, is really tough. This food used to be my go to. After spending literally thousands on this product, I can't get a response from the company. Sad really. I guess the new business strategy is to alienate customers and cheapen the food or process for profit. Good luck with that.

Nuggets changed!

My cat loved this food and couldn’t wait for mealtime - then the nuggets changed. My cat always ate the nuggets crumbled up, not rehydrated, as she preferred it

My cat loved this food and couldn’t wait for mealtime - then the nuggets changed. My cat always ate the nuggets crumbled up, not rehydrated, as she preferred it that way. The original nuggets crumbled easily with just light pressure. These new orange nuggets, I have to smash with a hammer and it still doesn’t get it broken down as small as she needs it. I won’t be buying any more of these nuggets until they return to the original formula. I just canceled my subscription.

This new formula is terrible. It now has a rock hard texture and my cat won’t go near it. This is extra disappointing since my cat has had a lot of issues with food, and this was one of the few foods she could (and would) eat, but now won’t go near it.

I have been feeding this specific brand and rabbit formula to my cat for 7 years. It had been the only food my cat would eat since he was a kitten. It was also the only food that didn’t give him urinary crystals, so I trusted it. After a year of visits to the vet for bladder issues (when he was a kitten), I found something that worked for him. Sadly, this new formula has me very concerned. I can work around it and make him food from scratch however, I’m just disappointed about these changes. The original formula was beige and has been for 7 years. The new formula is orange. It also smells like ground up kibble and the texture is off. When I add water to rehydrate the brick, the food feels like rubber or silicone and squeaks when rubbed together. It’s the oddest texture. After feeding this to my cat for 7 years, I can see, feel and smell the difference. My cat won’t eat it anymore. I contacted Primal to inquire about these changes and am waiting to hear back from them.

New packaging and new manufacturing?? The nuggets are smaller, much darker in color, and extremely hard. My cats prefer them dry and while I could crush many of them, I had to get out some tools to crush a few nuggets. The previous version which I have been feeding my cats for 5 years (and which I last purchased 5 weeks ago) were lighter, bigger, and softer. My two Cats are NOT pleased with the flavor or the texture :(
