Stella & Chewy's Yummy Lickin' Salmon & Chicken Dinner Grain-Free Freeze-Dried Cat Food

I have 2 Sphynx cats, one too thin and one too fat. The both struggle with diarrhea as well, even on high quality foods. I had little hope that my skinny, very picky one would like raw. I tried frozen first and she would not touch it after days of trying (so that went to the dogs, as to not waste it!). Next I tried freeze dried made extra soupy. No go! Just for fun, I tried a piece whole and dry. Shockingly, she scarfed it right up! There is no looking back! Very relieved! One less star for frustrating packaging (open/close/re-seal).

Bought this initially for an older ten year old cat who has become extremely fussy about food. unfortunately he turns his nose away from it most of the time. Occasionally he will eat a piece of it as a treat dry. However, my new kitten loves it. After reading the benefits of a raw food diet, reliability and safety of this product and talking with a representative from Stella and Chewy I am sold on it. I currently use it moistened in addition to EVO dry alternating at feedings. My older cat only eats EVO dry.

All four of my cats love this. But because of this food's high quality and, therefore, high cost I only use it as a topper on their canned wet food. However, it sure is nice to find high-quality food that everyone agrees on--from the one year old to the 15 year old. A great product.

My picky cats love this! I sprinkle a little on top of their canned cat food and they devour it! I also use on occasion as a midday treat!! It's nice to know I'm feeding my cats a healthy, high quality cat food!!!

My cat Chipper is pretty picky but when I saw her sneaking some of our dogs Stella & Chewy I ordered her some of her own. She LOVES it! It doesn't even look like something she would eat but it must be pretty good!

S&C's freeze dried cat food is a great mixer with other foods or standalone as a treat. Just the right addition to mix in when kitties walk away from their wet food. Thanks Stella and Chewies!

Stella & Chewy's freeze-dried cat food has been a Godsend to us. It is all we need to feed the cats because of its high nutritional value. Before we educated ourselves, we were feeding our pets regular supermarket "stuff" and the poor things threw up, constantly. Since we have been buying this product (and the other, delicious flavors), however, the throwing up has ceased and the cats are so much healthier and happier. We serve it to them moistened and dry and they love it, either way. Oh, and the shipping is super-fast and the prices amazing. Thank you, Chewy.com, from us and our cats, too!

My cats eat this as a supplement to their canned food, since they'll only eat it dry, not rehydrated. It's the only raw food they've ever very deigned to touch! The 9 yr old Burmese boy loves all the flavors except the turkey but gets bored if I don't rotate them periodically. (He's a cat; what can I tell you.) My 15 yr old diva eats it sparingly, preferring her wet food. Have noticed significant improvement on both cats' coats, plus a small chapped area on my boy's nose finally cleared up after nothing else worked. Pros: 1. no refrigeration required. Unlike canned food, you can leave it out during the day without spoilage concerns. 2. No contamination issues because of freeze-drying My cats eat this as a supplement to their canned food, since they'll only eat it dry, not rehydrated.

Unlike canned food, you can leave it out during the day without spoilage concerns. 2. No contamination issues because of freeze-drying method used. 3. No Odor. 4. Palatability, tho we all know how subjective this is with cats. 5. High quality protein; no grain, fillers, etc. 6. Comes in small, as well as large, bags so you can try it before spending a lot of $ on something your cats won't eat. Cons: 1. if cats won't eat it after rehydration, it won't help with hydration concerns, especially for cats who especially need food with high moisture content. 2. It's formulated in little "nuggets" that are a bit too large for a cat's mouth, so I have to reduce size by crumbling them in my fingers. Very pleased to have found this healthy, tasty product! … more

Our multi-cat household is very enthusiastic about Stella & Chewy's Salmon & Chicken Freeze Dried food. We mainly use the nuggets as special treats and there is never a crumb remaining. This food does have a rather strong fish odor but is just fine with the cats. This is a nice healthy snack for them!

I've used this brand before with little success, but this formula/flavor seems to have hit the mark w/my cats. The extruded bits are easier to reconstitute than before and, because I have one cat that won't eat chicken (go figure), the added salmon makes him happy. I like being able to add more water to make a slurry for one of my cats who has very few teeth. Easy for her to eat. The only reason it's one star is the price. To feed this to 5 cats is prohibitive for me, but, at least they get it when I can afford it.
