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.

Lucy Likes it!
By Mightymouth on Nov 25, 2019
We have a "reformed feral" who was of course grateful for any food we offered. After a few months of regular meals, she showed her picky side. Now it's Stella and Chewy's or she starts packing her bags. We hadn't tried this flavor before and "PICKY" is her middle name. But she loves this flavor too. And happily, it gets 100% claws up from all 4 cats and both dogs.

Try the small bag for your first purchase
By Ragsmom on Oct 30, 2019
I have two picky cats who are on the raw diet. I bought this large bag together with the rabbit flavor when they are on sale. However, one of my cats refused to eat this bag of chicken and salmon but have no problems with the rabbit bag (Yes, he has an expensive taste.) The morsels are also much bigger than the vital essentials' (the brand I usually buy), so at first, it was a bit difficult for my cats to eat. I would recommend purchasing this high-quality food when it is on sale as it is pricey and recommend going with the smaller portion first to see if your cats like the flavor.

No kidding, this stuff makes my cats happy
By Oldcatlady on Nov 20, 2019
the two of them, Emma and Ernesto, weren't used to raw. It causes me to cringe how they watch me crunch tasty morsels into their dishes. I am not afraid that I will be attacked if I don't hurry, opening the pumpkin sauce, and gracefully spreading it over the chunks. This is a good product, and they make a chorus as I lean over their bowls.

Cats liked it but be prepared for the smell
By Takinupspace on Nov 12, 2019
The cats both really liked this food and the morsels were a good size for them to be able to munch on, but beware that the smell is overwhelming. If you aren't a fan of fish/fishy smells, this isn't the food for you. I found myself having to light candles every time I fed the cats to cover up the smell of the salmon.

just want my cat to be healthy
By Rjan on Nov 26, 2019
and this seemed liked a great option. she's just picky and prefers dry over wet and even when I gave this to her dry she avoided it and ate it dead last when she didnt have another option. 3 stars because im sure it wasnt bad for her she's just picky!

A win for everyone
By AliS on Nov 24, 2019
My 7 and 11 yr old cats love it and my kitten loves to bat a piece around the house and then murder it and eat it. I like that they are getting healthy, clean food. Note- it’s fairly smelly!

Very good...
By JJandGizmo on Oct 30, 2019
when ever I take the bag out his nose goes up into the air. He loves it! Finally some good quality food in a bit larger morsels, so they can use their teeth! It's rather on the pricier side though, therefore only 4 stars. I mix it in with his other wet food.

Meow More Please!
By Peaches on Dec 4, 2019
My cats go crazy for these. I crush them up and use them for a topper on their wet food. Sometimes I just leave a few out in a bowl and they are gone in no time.

My cat doesnt like it
By sarabi on Sep 6, 2019
My cat will not eat dry food unless I mix it with wet food. I thought this would be an easier replacement since all I had to do was add water and wait a few minutes. I thought it could be a healthier kind of "wet" food for her without going through the trouble of mixing wet and dry together anymore. I was wrong. She just smells it, looks at it, looks at me, and then walk away in disappointment. I gave it two stars for the healthy ingredients. I guess it just doesnt fit the taste of all cats.
