My cat loves these!!
My cat is a bit fussy when it comes to treats, but she loves these!! They smell good, and she just gobbles them down. She likes a couple of other flavors of Instinct raw treats, but she seems more enthusiastic with these. Persian approved!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better ingredients than most cat treats!
Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2022
The ingredients are much better than the typical garbage and "animal meal" found in standard cat treats, and I do not feel like I'm giving my cats garbage when I feed these. However, I do think the price point is quite high....around $15 for 6 oz.

Also, really weird to have the recommended serving size measured in a tablespoon rather than # of pieces, considering these are largish pellets! How on earth are you supposed to measure a tablespoon of these?

The only other issue I have is that freshness appears to vary greatly. Recently, all the bags I have gotten have been just a bit tender and easy to break in half to make them easier to eat. Occasionally though, I receive what I assume are older batches that practically disintegrate into a powder when I try to break them.

Considering how much my cats love these and the better than average ingredients, I will continue to buy these and recommend them as a guilt free treat/cat snack. I just wish they were a bit more wallet-friendly.
