Ingredients and Formulation
Beef with bone, chicken with bone, beef liver, beef kidney, fish oil, mixed tocopherols (preservative), vitamin E supplement, zinc amino acid complex, iron amino acid complex, copper amino acid complex, manganese amino acid complex. The formula is grain-free and freeze-dried raw. No artificial flavors or colors are listed in the ingredient panel. The crunchy texture results from the freeze-drying process applied to whole animal ingredients. This formulation differs from the single-protein chicken variety by incorporating both beef and chicken muscle meat, bone, and organ ingredients.
Texture, Size, and Feeding Guidance
These crunchy cat treats are freeze-dried into small, uniform mini nibs - compact in size and consistent in texture. The bite size is suitable for cats of all sizes and can be fed directly by hand or placed in a bowl. Kittens, pregnant, and nursing cats may require up to twice the quantity of an adult cat. Cats transitioning to raw feeding may need additional time to adjust to new flavors and textures; a gradual introduction is recommended. Feeding amounts should be adjusted based on the individual cat's age, weight, and activity level.
Functional Use
These crunchy cat treats are designed for daily treat use and reward-based feeding. The mini nib format supports consistent portioning during routine feeding or as a complement to a raw diet meal plan. The beef and chicken blend can be rotated with single-protein varieties to introduce protein variety within a raw feeding routine.
Safety, Usage, and Storage Guidance
- Feed in moderation as part of a complete and balanced diet.
- Always provide fresh water alongside treat feeding.
- Follow feeding guidelines based on your cat's age, weight, and activity level.
