Stella & Chewy's Absolutely Rabbit Dinner Morsels Freeze-Dried Raw Cat Food

We suspected our new 4 year old foster might have food allergies due to her incessant scratching despite a clean bill of health from two different vets. After trying different poultry and fishy limited ingredient foods without success, we moved onto rabbit. Currently she has been on Instinct Limited Ingredient rabbit dry + their wet of the same name, but THIS stuff is her favorite. She chews the pieces up easily despite having had several teeth extracted. I'm hoping the chewing action will help with tartar control since she can't have Greenies anymore (and teeth brushing has been a giant bust so far). After 3 weeks on this diet, our girl is noticeably less itchy and the scratching has We suspected our new 4 year old foster might have food allergies due to her incessant scratching despite a clean bill of health from two different vets.

I'm hoping the chewing action will help with tartar control since she can't have Greenies anymore (and teeth brushing has been a giant bust so far). After 3 weeks on this diet, our girl is noticeably less itchy and the scratching has been reduced by 75%. The red scratch marks around her face have completely healed, except for her chin. I'm hoping a few more weeks on this and a whisker-stress relief bowl will get us over the finish line. Interestingly, our resident male cat who is a living garbage disposal when it comes to cat foods is completely uninterested in any of the rabbit recipes we feed the foster (who has been a picky eater from the start), so I would caution anyone trying these varieties to start with a small bag and see if your cat will eat it. It seems to be a unique taste that either appeals to a specific cat or doesn't interest them at all. For us, it was the picky eater that gobbled it down and the easy keeper who eats anything that turned up his nose to it. Also, I saw some reviews talking about a stinky smell to this recipe. Honestly, to me it has barely any odor at all, but I only serve it dry straight out of the bag, as I like the chewing action it engenders in our girl. Hoping it will help keep her teeth clean. Haven't tried rehydrating it. Thanks for this great complete-nutrition food! Tremendous help for itchy kitty so far, and I don't need to worry about supplements to make it a complete diet. Don't stop making it! >^.^< … more

We have an older (~14 year old) cat, who has struggled since losing her partner over the summer (losing weight, vomiting, etc). Through some trial and error, I came to this food and in just a short time her turn around has been remarkable. She’s noticeably more active and her coat is looking better. She is actually yelling at me as soon as I get up to feed her. Super grateful for this food and her improvements!

I wasn't sure if my kitties would like the rabbit morsels because they are so picky but they love it. I'm going to explore other Stella & Chewy's freeze dried raw cat food. I use these as a supplement to their dry food and wet food since it is pure protein.

I have to say I've had a cat that for 4 years has had severe IBD (Irritable Bowel Disease) and when I say severe, I mean it. My vet along with specialty vets could no longer help her. She is on B12 injections along with Prednisolone every other day. Everything she eats ends up in diarrhea;, the house, the bed, my hair, midnight baths for her seeing as she's pure white with long hair. She is extremely thin. We were nearing euthanasia options as she was just miserable. My vet finally suggested a one protein food and I noticed this rabbit was high on their list, so I tried it. It has literally saved her life within 1 week! Her diarrhea has almost cleared up, she loves the taste and she's gaining I have to say I've had a cat that for 4 years has had severe IBD (Irritable Bowel Disease) and when I say severe, I mean it.

Problem is she's eating so much (which she needs) but it's so expensive I'm not sure I can keep up. I think she's gone thru 1/2 of their largest bag in 1 week! This could cost $130 in food per month! and we have 5 other cats and 2 dogs to feed as well! Can anyone tell me if the other 1 protein food they have that are cheaper may give me the same results? … more

I'm not sure how smart my human is. She has tried to give this to me in many forms and I just look at her like "do you think I think this is food?". Human: I am unhappy. This cost a lot. I am trying foods to vary my feline's diet but no one is making vittles of mouse or vole. She wouldn't eat it in this freeze-dried form anyway so this is the last time I try this dusty style of food.

Our old cat needs softer food but like many cats before her, she's MIGHTY picky and generally prefers dry food. This works out great! Soft enough for her to chew, but still has the drier texture she prefers.

I have two indoor and five TNR cats. One of my indoor cats has poultry allergies and is a very picky eater. She first didn't want anything to do with this treat but after watching her sister eat hers she wanted another one. Yesterday I came home to find the bag on the floor chewed and clawed at. She's the only one that jumps and hangs on the counter so needless to say she likes it. I'm just glad she finally likes something!

I have been feeding my cat Stella & Chewy dinner morsels as treats only for years. The rabbit is hard to find, but always on chewy. She absolutely loses her mind for the rabbit and it’s quite the treat for her. I love that the treats are actual dinner-quality nutrition. 10/10

My 13 year-old cat has become extremely finicky about canned or pouched food, even the very expensive ones, causing most to end up in the garbage. I bought a small bag of rabbit morsels at a local pet store to try it. I do not like to feed him raw food (afraid of bacteria), so I heat it with water in the microwave, then smoosh it up with a fork to make a warm pate. One month later, he still finishes his plate and no longer eats dry food at all. I hope his vet approves, as he is beginning to have kidney issues, but for now he loves this and it causes no stomach or bowel upsets. Expensive, but none gets thrown away. He also likes the duck, duck goose flavor.

I have 1 kitty with IBD issues and we're always on the lookout for a wet food that will agree with his sensitive tummy while being tasty. Our other kitty just has to put up with whatever we're serving :) They both turn their noses up at this particular food. And I have to admit it is pretty stinky. While having not tasted it myself, based on their reaction I imagine it's pretty bad. If left out for more than 12 hours the stink in actually unbearable, which is hard to avoid since my kitties don't seem to eat this even if they're starving. It's also hard to get the "morsels" to absorb water, and I've tried hot /warm water and soaking it for a good 30 minutes.
