Questions & Answers

12 Customer Questions


Is their added salt? Sodium content?


What is the percentage of bone is the new formulation?


Ok, this might be a dumb question....What is the difference in this that cats could not or should not eat these ? My cats love the the "patties" but hate the pellet topper kinds. Besides with 7 cats, larger bags are a plus. Thank you very much.

Answer by ChewyApr 15, 2021
There is no difference in the recipe between the Patties and the Mini Nibs for the Vital Essentials Rabbit Entree. It's the same ingredients in a different form (Nibs vs patties). In regards to your second question you can give the dog entrees to a cat and cat entrees to a dog as the base product is the same (protein including muscle meat, organs and bone).

Approximately how many patties are in a bag?

Answer by ChewyJan 09, 2024
Although this product is packaged based on weight, there are approximately 20-25 mini patties per bag.

Great topper for my dog’s kibble. He loved this and it was a great option when we had strong allergies to chicken dog food products.

Okay - but unpleasant odor

Kind of works for this picky eater. She ate 2-3 meals of it and now has stopped. It has an unpleasant odor.

I give my Annie a pre-dinner treats of 2 chicken jerky’s, 3 chicken hearts and wanted to add rabbit. I tried several other rabbit treats that didn’t work but these were gobbled up right away. The squares are big so I split in half and give Annie the other half. These are very soft so would be good for young or elderly animals.

Healthy product

The texture was a bit odd for my pup at first but she loved the taste as a meal topper. Healthy too.
