Questions & Answers

3 Customer Questions

What is the ACCURATE CARBOHYDRATE PERCENTAGE per MANUFACTURER on an AS FED BASIS and AS DRY BASIS? My cat is diabetic so its crucial to be accurate on the carbs count. Thank you!”

Answer by Chewy • Nov 21, 2021
Vital Essentials does not test for the carbohydrate content for these treats as they are not a complete and balanced meal. Due to your pet's diagnosed condition, we recommend consulting your veterinarian to ensure this is a suitable option for your pet.

What is the phosphorus content?

Answer by Chewy • Nov 06, 2018
The chicken giblet treat should be relatively low phosphorus as there is no bone in this treat. There are only two ingredients in this product and that's chicken heart and liver. Due to it only being a treat, the manufacturer doesn't have a full nutritional breakdown.

Can I feed this to kittens?

Answer by Chewy • Jun 23, 2021
These treats are suitable for all life stages.

My cat seems to love them

I hope they are good for her as I think they are. I was giving her the freeze-dried salmon but I read too much fish wasn't good so I switched to these and she seems to like them even better. Since wild cats happily eat the entrails of their prey, I hope this is a good way to work some clean organ meat (not "by-products") into her diet.

cats go crazyyyy for chicken giblets

I use these treats for everything. As a training tool, a food topper, or just as regular treats, and they're ALWAYS a hit! I have never seen my cats behave the way

I use these treats for everything. As a training tool, a food topper, or just as regular treats, and they're ALWAYS a hit! I have never seen my cats behave the way they do for these things, they're addicted. I even took these to my brothers house to use while training his cats and got the best response from them as well! I top my kitties dry food off for breakfast with just a little bit of these every day, and because of it they now prefer their dry meal to their wet one, which has never been the case. I love that they're single ingredient, and that I know exactly what I'm giving to my fur babies! As always, be careful when serving these treats that there's no bones or hard pieces that might harm your cats, I haven't found them in any of the bags I've gotten, but it's always a possibility!

Nice treat and good protein source

I wanted a good clean protein source for my cats and these little bits are a nice variety to their diet. I originally purchased the whole chicken hearts but I felt

I wanted a good clean protein source for my cats and these little bits are a nice variety to their diet. I originally purchased the whole chicken hearts but I felt they were quite big/not as safe so I gave those to a friend with a dog and purchased this item. Two of my cats enjoy them. There are some crumbs/powder at the bottom of the bag but I just put it on a dish and let my cats lick it up.

Vomiting cat

I have a couple bags of this variety of treat from this manufacturer. For reasons I don’t understand all of the sudden my cat started vomiting when she ate these

I have a couple bags of this variety of treat from this manufacturer. For reasons I don’t understand all of the sudden my cat started vomiting when she ate these. I followed the guidelines on the bag. She absolutely loves these treats. The aftermath isn’t worth it.

YUM!

Hi my name is Kara, my mom bought me these treats and I LOVE them. I've always been picky with treats so she wasn't sure I'd like them, man do I love them. I ask

Hi my name is Kara, my mom bought me these treats and I LOVE them. I've always been picky with treats so she wasn't sure I'd like them, man do I love them. I ask for them after she gives me my meds, it's something I look forward after she tortures me with yucky medicine. I highly recommend you all ask your parents for some. Meow!

Cats love these

They were a little pricey, so I don’t buy them often but all my cats enjoy these. They actually beg for them if they see the bag.

Small chunks

Liked by only one of my guys, Oedi but he's the one who is the most happy with freeze dried innards. Small, easy to eat chunks.

A favorite

Two out of our 4 cats go absolutely crazy for the giblets. Good clean ingredients. I just wished the bag was a bit bigger.

Maddie never says no to offers of this treat.

Although Maddie is not new to the household, I am newly responsible for her. I'm learning what she likes, will tolerate, and what she outright refuses to eat.
