Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Cat Treats (Ahi Tuna)

The taste of these treats got a 1 for 1 at my house. Our girl cat turned up her nose at them, but our boy cat gobbled them down so fast I wondered if he did taste them! So they were a hit with him. The reason for the lower stars, is that after two days of these treats, he was throwing up and stopped drinking water, which is something he never did before. I stopped giving him these treats, and watched what he did or didn't eat/drink, his vomiting, and his litter box habits. The poor boy even lost .5 pounds in those couple days (my litter box weighs the cats when they use it). I was just ready to rush him to the vet when he stopped throwing up and returned to normal eating, drinking, and litter habits and is back up to normal weight. Although I cannot verify that the scare was from the treats, and it seems like no one else in the comments had any issues with their cats, I am afraid to try them on my boy again. The package does state to only give a few and to make sure they drink plenty of water (since the product is "dried"), so possibly he had too many for his size.

As with anything new, we were hoping our cat would like these. She loved them!!! I'm so happy. Our cat was a feral hunter who crossed our deck on the way to her hunting grounds, our back yard. One day she decided to stay. She domesticated herself very quickly. And found the sofa on a couple of towels much to her liking. We got her a healthy cat food which she ate for a couple of months, then stopped and just focused on kibble. When I gave her a couple of these she went cwazy, pulling at my hand, wanting more. They are softly crunchy, and don't have a lot of tuna smell.

My cat and dog both like these treats! These make great training treats for my dog because they are lower in calories than many of the large dog treats. He likes the flavor and it’s a bit different than many of the typical dog treats. Of course, being tuna, my cat likes these as well. This seems to be a good company and clean ingredients. I’ve purchased multiple times and the treats are always fresh. I would definitely recommend!

I have always gotten this brand for my cat's treats, and she has always loved them, but I decided to try the Ahi Tuna bites and she goes insane for them. The moment she smells them she will run as fast as she can and sometimes even run into me or a few times the kitchen cabinets just to get to them. I so much a pick the bag up in her sight and the next thing I know she is trying to find her way into getting into the bag. If I need to find her (she is a beautiful black goddess) I simply need to shake the bag and open it up and she will be right there. Best treats I have ever gotten for her.

These went over big with the cats but then about 2 weeks later, before I finished bag, they didn't wanna know anymore
