5.0 out of 5 stars Pricey but good
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Man it’s expensive but man my cat loves this stuff! Great option for diabetic cats. After having him on this (and the chicken one cause feeding exclusively the rabbit is too expensive for me) for a couple months along with twice daily insulin shots, we went back to the vet for a day of blood sugar monitoring. Vet said his blood sugar was actually low! And that he may become pre-diabetic and be one of those lucky cats.You can feed this in a couple different ways. You can crumble up the patties and rehydrate with warm water. It will come out to a slightly chunky wet food consistency, so if your cat only likes pates this may not be good. My cat is extremely picky when it comes to wet food and he doesn’t like chunky wet food.So, the second option and what I do, is I crumble up a patty and let him eat it dry. I have to make SURE he has access to water and encourage him to get more moisture, but it works for us. I just have 32 oz cups in various places around our house becomause he prefers to drink from cups lol.Because it’s dry, it sticks to his tongue when he licks and therefore he feels like he can “lick it up” even though it’s not a wet food. He doesn’t like to work very hard for his food.Rabbit is a great protein option for cats with various food allergies as it’s less common to have an allergy to, and this product is just rabbit. So if your cat has, say a sweet potato or a lentil allergy, this food circumvents that.Please please please wash hands after handling it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Cats love this stuff
For the last 4 or 5 years our cats have lost interest in several varieties of canned cat food they’d eaten for years (change in formulas?). When one got really sick we tried lots of new things to get him eating again. The turkey patties were a hit, but we had a hoard of other cat food, thanks to Covid, so this got put aside when he recovered. Recently one of our other kitty boys, who wasn’t crazy about his canned food at breakfast or dinner, crept into the pantry and found the turkey patties, then pretty much destroyed the bag to get at them. They must’ve smelled great cuz he’d never gotten to try them before. I crumble the patties, removing any suspect pieces that might be bone shards, and mix with water since our boys have been used to wet food and so don’t usually drink much water. They obviously love the taste and gobble this stuff, trying to get at it before I add water. They’d prefer to eat it dry but they don’t get that option since I worry they won’t drink enough. Ordered more today to add in the rotation and will consider using much more often for the quality ingredients and lack of nonsense filler, and it obviously makes the boys happy. It’s not cheap, but what is these days?
5.0 out of 5 stars Some great duck
This duck is great, my cat enjoys it and so does his neighbor friend cat. I got sardines and duck, between them the duck is the most liked.
4.0 out of 5 stars You really should reconstitute these
My cat LOVES these, and he is gorgeous and healthy and FULL of energy eating them, but I HIGHLY advise reconstituting these with liquid for two reasons:- Breaking them apart often leads to me finding sizable bones. Usually it's just one or two per patty, but some batches there have been eight or more per patty! However, he has never had any issues from eating these long before I realized they often have bones in them, for whatever that's worth.- I have a male cat who will NOT drink water to make up for how dry these are, even though he has two nice fountains. This resulted in some serious vet bills because he started passing blood clots in his urethra and getting clogged up. Male cats can be prone to this problem and it can literally kill them.What I do is make a package of chicken thighs (or legs or wings) in the Instant Pot with the minimal amount of water (about a cup) for about 45 minutes. The broth from that should gel completely when cooled in the fridge. For dinner my cat gets some cooked chicken, plus I take five big spoonfuls of the broth and mix it with a crumbled up patty. If you don't want to give your cat ANY cooked meat, then just eat the chicken yourself and use the broth for your cat.On this diet my cat is very energetic, playful, intelligent, and has no anxiety. His coat is SUPER shiny, everyone comments on it.
1.0 out of 5 stars Rancid
My cats normally love this food so I bought this bigger bag on sale. As soon as I opened it I was like, NO. It smelled rancid and it’s not returnable. The date is good but it stinks like old oil and my cats would only eat if if they were starving. They don’t even do that now and the one who really needs it is now throwing up and never does. I can’t return it and need the account holder to talk to Bolo for me, even though I’m the one using the account to buy it with my own credit card and have my invoice. Stupid. So now I have to take it up with the brand itself, which is probably better anyway, so they know it was improperly stored or something and they should just not let Bolo sell their products if they are going to let the products go bad.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!
I've been feeding my two cats a variety of the Vitals freeze dried foods. It isn't their primary diet and I serve them each 1/2 a patty with their dry food (all rehydrated with water or bone broth/goats milk). They both love the rabbit and duck as they have sensitivities to beef/salmon/pork. It definitely is pricey, but if used in addition to your cats' diet it isn't so bad. The 3.75 oz bag will last my two cats about a month since I rotate their proteins so they don't get the one flavor every day. We also really love the toppers/treats from this brand and its all cheaper on Bolo compared to your local pet store.
Best way to feed raw in a pinch

Super simple to prep raw feeding on the go. Crumbles really well and absorbs water to create a well balancing hydrating raw meal on rotation. Love it!
