Vital Essentials® Freeze-Dried Raw Pork Entree & Mixer Cat Food Crunchy Nibs, 12 oz

My cat is absolutely obsessed with the turkey nibs! She's 17 years old and earlier this year she was diagnosed with IBD and pancreatitis. She was throwing up all the time, she stopped eating, and it seemed like we were at the end. I kicked myself for not transitioning her to a raw diet when she was younger because I knew all of the problems she was having were from her diet. I prayed for one more shot to turn things around and that's when I discovered freeze-dried raw! My cat is stopped vomiting, is back up to a healthy weight and she truly LOVES her food again. She's also got way more energy and is back to having zoomies every night again. I'm so grateful that I tear up thinking about it all the time. If you're on the fence about transitioning your cat to freeze-dried raw, try this! Especially the turkey! My cat is SO picky and she is in love with it.

I have two cats and one is about 9 weeks old. He’s my picky eater and doesn’t always finish his food. I try to use these as training treats for both of them since it’s essentially big pieces of kibble. My older cat loves them, her absolute favorite treats to get. She has a puzzle toy and these treats are perfect for the little slots she has to open. Small enough to fit inside but big enough for her to grab without a struggle. My boy warmed up to these after he saw my girl have them. Even a picky eater like him enjoys them. They get them occasionally as food toppers on their wet food, and this works great for their teeth and bad breath. Wonderful product.

5 stars always, vital essential is one the top of my list of go to brands for my cats . Great quality. Always fresh . Decent value. Could be a little bit cheaper, but overall for the quality I'm happy with my purchase and would buy over and over again.

Very easy to serve to them And they seem to like it a lot!! I just put a small handful in with some other things and they dig this out! It’s a good treat for them

I have a cat that has a more sensitive stomach. Other brands of freeze dried raw food have made him throw up. This food never has.Not to mention he and my other cat absolutely love it!!I just spent some time trying to find a cheaper but still quality option and was unsuccessful. It looks like this is the best priced freeze dried raw food that most cats enjoy and doesn’t upset their tummies.I like how it’s a little harder and smaller pieces that way they can get some nice crunching action that’s good for their teeth.I hope they never stop selling this.

This brand & product is absolutely one of the best health choices for cats regarding kibble. We are leaning out of kibble due to all of the more recent information about the crucial importance of water content for the cats. But our cats still want that kibble! And this is, in my opinion, the best brand, in regard to high quality nutritional value. BUT….. I had to go to another brand because the cost this company is setting, is ridiculous! So what I try to do is get this occasionally and try to find deals when I can.When I first found this company, over a year ago, we purchased a great deal of kibble and other snacks from this maker but it was costing us a fortune. It’s very sad that companies get greedy, especially concerning health Products. Hopefully they will find a balance. Hopefully they care about their customers and about fur friends, and will get these prices down. I don’t know if they realize how hard it is on people when we are trying to make healthy choices not only for ourselves but also for our sweet fur babies, to get out of the old cycles of toxic food. When companies charge ridiculous amounts, in my opinion, they are not holding their responsibilities in a fully honorable way. They are doing the task of creating healthy products and I understand the cost in that, but integrity is also a part of this.The other product we have decided to move to and have tested with great success is the Nulo brand. Their kibble was seriously 1/5 of the price for twice as much. This speaks a great deal to what I am saying!!

Slightly softer than kibble. It is so much easier for my senior kitty to chew with her last few teeth. She seems much happier and healthier

I like to add some good crunchies to my cats' wet food, along with some novel proteins, so tried the pork flavor. It was a huge hit with my cats! I have fed it as a full meal as well, and when soaked in some warm water for a couple minutes, even my boy with next to no teeth can eat it just fine. I love how much protein is in it so I know my cats are getting exactly what they need.
