Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Raw Rabbit Meal or Mixer Cat Food Crunchy Nibs, 12 oz

Our Cats Love Them But Crazy Money Unless You Shop The Sack-sized Option. That about covers it. Our cats love these and the pork variety. They are 97% from a rabbit, but understand that this means from the spleen and liver, not the muscle meat. They do not smell bad either. Now we know our cats like them, I buy the biggest sack possible for something approaching and economy of scale. These small packs are crazy money.

My ginger cat LOVES these. I use them as treats or a few on top of dinner. Some are longer 1/2inch and otherssmaller- which is an ideal variety. he crunches thru bigger ones & gulps the smaller. NOT easy to crumble like freeze drued chicken ones. So for me perfect! no smell and last very well in cupboard for weeks & weeks!

My baby cat love it so much.

I buy the soft nibs version of this product. My cats go bonkers over that one. I like to crush it and sprinkle it over there raw food for extra protein and taste. It also helped transition my cats from dry to raw. I love that it is soft and pliable, making it versatile for any meal. I know some people complained about the size and their cats couldn't eat it, but I think it is better as a topper. You can also soak it in water if you prefer wet over dry. With all the success I have with that version, I decided to give this a go. I can see the appeal for people who wanted a smaller, crunchier version for their cats, but this was not a hit with mine. Some of them didn't want to chew it, had difficulty chewing, or had no interest whatsoever. I was hoping they would like the crunch since they used to eat dry and or give them variety. But nope. They want their soft nibs! Both are good products. A little pricey, but worth it for your fur babies! The ingredients are great, with meat as the main factor, with only one filler as a preservative. Which is huge when comparing this to other brands.Overall, I am quite happy with this the other version of this product and it has become a staple in my household.

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!!

My cat absolutely loves this! She gets so excited every time I open the bag. The quality is excellent — the pieces are fresh and clean, and the amount you get is really generous. It's such great value for the price. I'm really happy with this purchase and will definitely be buying again!

My cats love rabbit canned or freeze dried raw (Stella chewy brand), all three ignored these. The nuggets are a good size but very very hard and it takes longer to rehydrate. Unfortunately we discovered rather large pieces of bone in at least couple of nuggets out of 7 we rehydrated. I would never give the bones this size to my cats. Even after we put a topper on the nuggets, cats didn't touch these.
