Chewy was out of the freeze dried minnows I usually buy (Vital Essentials Minnows Freeze-Dried Cat Treats, 0.5-oz bag) so I gave these a try. Big mistake. About 15 minutes after both of my cats "finally" (they'll climb up my leg for the others) tried these, they vomited. I waited a few days and tried again. The same thing happened. Also, the package says it has 275 treats. It has about 75. I'm so disappointed and so are my furbabies.
My 3 girls wouldn't touch them dry. So I used to cut them up and add hot water and in a few minutes they would be hydrated. My girls would eat them then. Now I just blend the whole bag up into a fine powder I put some water n some powder n it makes like a fish gravy and I add it to their soft food every morning. They actually lick the bowls clean. I do the same with the shrimp. They love the shrimp too
Wished I read the reviews before purchasing these, would had gotten my normal brand instead. Decided to try this brand of minnows since it was on sale at the time. The bag arrived with most of the minnows crushed to dust or in small fragments. Ended up shifting through it with a strainer to get find all the big pieces to keep in the bag. Definitely would not recommend buying it
My cats liked the minnows but I didn't like that there was a lot of crumbs inside the bag and broken pieces of fish my only con review but my cats ate it and it doesn't smell bad 50/50 review
Really bad product all 3 cats choked and threw up. There was one cluster that looked like 16 minnow eyes and I freaked out. Sticking with Vital Cat Treats whole freeze dried minnows.
The minnows arrived crushed in tiny pieces and lots of powder. I'll be donating them unopened. I'm not sure what the issue was, since the Vital minnows arrived whole. Sadly, I won't buy from this brand again, at least not for shipping or delivery.
My cats love it! I use it as a topper and crush it on new foods that they're hesitant about to get them to try it
I've always been a big fan of PureBites with everything I've purchased EXCEPT with my most recent order of two packages of minnows. They were very brown in color and smelled bad. Freeze dried minnows are supposed to be silver in color, why are these brown??? Minnows are my cats' favorite treats, they absolutely refused to eat these. After trying a few times, no takers, they were tossed.
My cats love these, but they arrived broken and crushed.
My cat has had these minnows plenty of times before. He loves them. Great taste. Great quality. Great price.
