All the Benefits of
Raw Nutrition
Give your stealthy carnivore all the meat she can dream of with Stella & Chewy's Freeze-Dried Raw Dinner Morsels. For pet parents that don't have time to prepare fresh raw foods or to wait for frozen food to thaw, freeze-dried is the best answer. These bite-size nuggets give kitties a feast of meat, organ and bones just like their wildcat ancestors. And to meet all of their nutritional needs, these recipes are formulated with added vitamins and minerals, probiotics and taurine.
The Prey Model Diet
It's only natural that your cat craves real meat—her body is designed to eat a diet that relies heavily on it. Stella & Chewy's makes it easy to feed your domesticated feline friend this prey model diet. Each recipe has 98% meat, nutrient-rich organs and bone, and there are no added hormones or antibiotics. All you have to do is rehydrate and serve. In just one minute, you'll have a wholesome, protein-rich dinner for your hungry tiger. As a bonus, she gets more water in her diet to keep her hydrated to support urinary tract health.
Raw Feeding Helps:
Minimal Processing,
Maximum Flavor
Heavy processing of ingredients can diminish the nutritional value. But with freeze-dried, the end product still retains its beneficial nutrients. Frozen raw nuggets go into a freeze-dryer to remove moisture without ever applying heat or letting them thaw. So they come out with all the flavor, vitamins, minerals, omegas and amino acids they went in with. Plus, you'll never have to keep it in the freezer or defrost it.
Innovative Food
Safety Technology
Food safety is always a concern, especially with raw foods. Stella & Chewy's takes every precaution with their SecureByNature food safety process that's recognized by the USDA and FDA. The ingredients undergo a special, 100% natural cold-press process that creates water pressure similar to that found near the ocean's floor. No harmful bacteria can survive, and there's no heat to damage nutrients and diminish flavor. Each batch is tested by an independent lab, and the results are even posted online for you to see.
Ethically Sourced Ingredients
Stella & Chewy's sources everything that goes into your pet's food from reputable suppliers that guarantee the integrity of the ingredients. Meat, poultry and fish are responsibly sourced from all over the world. The wholesome fruit and vegetables are certified organic, and nothing comes from China.

About Stella & Chewy's
The story of Stella & Chewy's starts with two lucky rescue dogs named Stella and Chewy—and Chewy was a pretty sick pup. Their new pet parent, Marie Moody, started both of her new family members on a raw diet, and she watched them thrive. Eager to bring the same amazing prey model diet to other pets, Marie soon developed innovative food safety measures to create her own version of raw pet food—the Stella & Chewy's frozen and freeze-dried dinners and mixers that you know and love.

Stella and Chewy’s is the top rated brand on many cat-food review sites, so I wasn’t hesitant in buying it. But I was uncertain how my rescue cat would react to the new food. So I was relieved that she took to it after the first sniff. The taste and savor of Stella and Chewy’s has probably spoiled her for other food options. That’s cat life.

One of our cats absolutely adores this food. She will wait patiently (well meowing and pacing the whole time it rehydrates) for her evening snack. We couldn't afford to feed this all the time but to all our cats but I figure a snack/evening meal is better than nothing.

1 cat eats these nuggets dry even before I can crumble them on her dry food. She eats them like her life depends on it. I added water to one nugget and she was thrilled, ate it like it was ambrosia and then looked at me and yelled very loudly when she was finished. Another cat won’t touch it at all -but he’s a mouser and finds his own source of raw. 1 female who only eats it at night if I leave it out and no one is watching. And the fourth will eat it after I crumble it dry and several reassuring pets to let him know that everything is OK and that it is his food only. No one else’s. 3 thumbs up. I would get this for the dog but it’s more expensive than home cooking! Good food is worth the expense 1 cat eats these nuggets dry even before I can crumble them on her dry food.

We brought in a FIV+ kitty with many teeth missing. This is a great quality food for him to eat, with what nubs of teeth he has left. I recommend to crumble the "nuggets" before you soak them. It seems no matter how much I try they just do not seem to "mush" once wet, but if crumbled before hand, they are super easy to feed. It is also great because I can add a little extra water, the extra water helps him from getting UITs, as he is prone to.

My 10 week old Bengal kitten was not gaining weight since I had him. He had a strange dry food addiction but he did not look healthy and was fussy about wet food. I really began to worry and as his mother, I was not going to sit around and watch my baby be unhealthy and let him cry to me. He should have been playing and feeling good. I tried to give him rad cat, with no avail, he just sniffed and licked and walked away. I was skeptical about Chewy's brand, but I would do anything for my baby. I'm glad I did. Because, NOW HE IS A HAPPY FATTENING UP KTTY. And his attitude is made the turn for the better. He is running more, sleeping less, crying less, etc. NOW, both of my kitties My 10 week old Bengal kitten was not gaining weight since I had him.

We used to buy Stella and Chewy's when we lived in western Washington. There is a wonderful small pet food chain called Mud Bay. When one of my dogs was struggling with diabetes and a seizure disorder the folks there gave me a sample. He loved it and so did all the other critters in the house. Then we tried the cat food. Another huge hit! His health improved for a long time as a result. Everybody had thick shiny coats and bright eyes. Then we moved to Kansas and can't find it. Prices for food are absurd around here and prices for quality pet food is 3 times as absurd. Thankful for Chewy.com for stocking this brand and all the different flavors for both cats and dogs.

Four of my five cats love the Stella and Chewy’s. I have one cat who is doing better on a no chicken diet in terms of hair pulling, so this formula works better. Another one of the four, a girl, who was kind of a slower eater now takes food off the boy’s plates! Too funny to see that change in an eleven year old. And after I mix and mush it for them, they are entangled in my feet begging me to hurry up and get their food down to them. Pretty amazing. Does get costly, so I have to keep it just for breakfast for now. Nice to find a food they are so excited about that is not the equivalent of a potato chip!

I have two kittens between 7 & 8 months who absolutely love Stella & Chewy's Duck Duck Goose. I was trying to find a higher calorie wet/freeze-dried food so that I could cut down on the amount of dry food they were eating. I ended up trying this and Primal Nuggets. Unfortunately, the Primal Nuggets were a no-go (they won't even go near the bowl if I mix just a little bit of Primal in with their food), but they LOVE this. It can be a pain to prepare; you have to soak it in warm water and then mush it all together with a fork. But it is 100% worth it. They love it, and their coats seem to get shinier and softer everyday.

My geriatric cat (19) with hyperthyroid disease and kidney problems went from 12 to 6 lbs since health issues started. She loves this cat food and is maintaining weight and feeling rather perky again. I break up the nuggets by hand and give her a never empty dish of just nuggets and a dish mixed with water and another protein. Tiny splinters mentioned below haven't been a problem.
