Good as a treat for food
By PumkinMartini on Jan 31, 2019
My husky doesn't care for this much, but both of my cats really enjoy having it on their dry food. Not bad, I'll probably buy it again just as a treat for their food every other day.

More convenient form!
By SDegrouchy on Jan 13, 2019
I love that this is already crumbled up and is the same price as the patties. I use this as a topper and also as the main source of food for my cats.

helping make up for lack of mini patties
By Sylvie on Sep 23, 2018 Top 1000 Contributor
very powder like, pic made it look a little more like finely shredded pieces which i would of preferred. Still it is helping do what we need it to do, which is trying to get the two cats that were fed the suddendly discontinued vital essentials turkey mini patties for meals, eat other foods while we try to find something they will mainly eat again.. i do have to keep adding a tsp of this topper 2-3 times to get them to eat a 3oz can of food right now but, without it they barely eat anything so powdery or not, it is worth buying and stocking up on (incase this gets discontinued to!) if your cat liked the patties too.

Excellent Meal Topper!
By Isabella on Mar 18, 2018
I have been mixing this in with my dog's food all this month and she has thoroughly enjoyed it! I gave it to my cat in her food a few times as well and she seemed to like it too. Definitely will be buying this topper again in the future!

Not a hit.
By Mimi on Apr 17, 2018
I was surprised that neither my dog or cats didn't like this and wouldn't eat it. They all love another brand of freeze dried topper treats.

My cats love it
By catma on Mar 30, 2018
Great additive to other foods. I mix it with their Weruva and raw foods. Cats love the taste and I love the ingredients.

my cats love it!
By catcharmer on Oct 10, 2017
i was having a hard time with my cats not wanting to eat their prescription wet food. they prefer the dry variety of the prescription food but since it's urinary health prescription, i'd really rather them be eating the wet food than the dry, to keep everything working properly. so i decided to order this stuff to put on top of their food, to see if it helped them be more interested in it. and it worked! they lick the plate now! and there's been no adverse consequences re: their digestion or their urinary health, so i'm gonna keep using it!
