Ripoff!

Way expensive! They switched from pounds to ounces and I didn't catch it. CHEWY should require companies to use the same standard of measurement/cost...and the cat

Way expensive! They switched from pounds to ounces and I didn't catch it. CHEWY should require companies to use the same standard of measurement/cost...and the cat wouldn't even eat it!! Dog liked fine. Just a total ripoff.

Excellent no carb food for my barn cats

I take care of several barn cat colonies, and have been looking for a better food for them. I wanted a “dry” food with zero or absolute minimal carbs that I can leave out for them between my visits. This food is purrfect! The cats love it and since it’s essentially zero carbs, it’s incredibly healthy for them. Some of my barn cats are older, so it’s even more important that they have the proper carnivore diet. Before I found this food I had to settle for the lowest carb dry foods but those foods still had too many carbs for optimal nutrition. So now I’m switching all my barn colonies over to this!

When I first offered these freeze dried chicken, all 3 cats loved it. The love affair lasted about 2 weeks then all 3 stopped eating it. I gave the last half of the bag to the crows.

Topaz really didn’t care for this food

I thought it was fine. Tell Pat doesn’t like it. That’s why I haven’t ordered it again.

I want the best for my cat, like I do for my family. We eat organically and I feed my cat the best as well. He gets a scoop of top of the line kibble and a scoop of either rabbit, duck or chicken twice daily. He's has no probably with the sizes, I like him to work for it a bit.

Not a fan

Not a fan of this freeze dried food. Most other freeze dried raw allows you to rehydrate with water. This has more of a hard coating, which does not rehydrate

Not a fan of this freeze dried food. Most other freeze dried raw allows you to rehydrate with water. This has more of a hard coating, which does not rehydrate. The description should really state this. Waste of $$.

Five paws up

My 5 cats (4 seniors & a 5-yr.-old) wolfed this food down. The 9-oz. bag provided 3 feedings for the 5 of them, although I believe I exceeded the portion sizes recommended
