Each and every Vital Essentials product is made in our very own facility located in Wisconsin. Our manufacturing facility proudly carries the Global Food Safety Initiative FSC22000 Certification and is EU and Gluten-Free certified. **Q: Why should I wash my hands after handling raw freeze dried food?** A: The FDA recommends washing your hands after handing any raw food, including freeze-dried pet foods. **Q: Is it normal for raw freeze dried food to have an aroma?** A: Yes! Since our foods are made with high levels of meat, you can expect the food to have a meaty aroma. Some proteins have a more noticeable aroma than others. **Q: What if my pet has tummy issues after eating raw freeze dried food?** A: Any change in diet comes with a chance of digestive upset. This is why we recommend a slow transition over the course of 5-7 days when changing your pet's food! This helps give your dog or cat plenty of time to adjust to his or her new diet. **Q: What if my pet doesn't like his new food or treat?** A: We're confident that your pet will LOVE Vital Essentials, but all animals have preferences! If the first product you try isn't a hit with your dog or cat, we offer a wide variety of proteins and textures that we're sure will be a great fit. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cat treat. *by on Reviewed in Canada 13 May 2024* Way better ingredients than the garbage cat treats. I use it as a topper for my wet food and the cats loved it. Even my picky one! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They love it! *by on Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates 19 June 2026* My cats love this and it’s soft! Which is good if want sprinkle on top of the food ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kitty Crack! *by on Reviewed in the United States 4 January 2024* My girl loves these duck liver treats. I use it as a kibble topper. She won't eat her kibble without her freeze dried duck liver. It's an affordable addition to otherwise bland kibble that makes meal time more enjoyable. Anytime the bag is opened she comes running as they are highly desired.I also use these treats for positive reinforcement of desirable behavior such as when she cooperates with groom time without nipping at the brush.I just ordered the minnows so we'll see if she likes those also. Vital makes all sorts of healthy options for your cat. Highly recommend.Update Jan 26th, 2024I did get the minnow option. I also got rabbit from a local shop by me. Minnow sadly is a no for my girl however they look exactly as described with all the organs and everything in them. The rabbit looks like pellets and hard to break. The rabbit for my girl is 50/50. I thought she'd like the treat given that I've been serving her freeze dried full meals from Primal Instinct brand she loves both dry and rehydrated cooked. I'm not sure what Vital is doing with the rabbit option as my girl isn't the enthusiastic about eating it.Duck treat is still her all time favorite freeze dried treat followed by Origin freeze dried raw lamb treat.I'm still giving the options 5 star as I can't expect my girl to love everything presented to her. It's great if your fur baby loves the other flavors as Vital is reasonably priced for their options and highly desired.Overall, I still highly recommend all of their treats.Update 4/8/24I decided to rehydrate the rabbit treat. In doing so I noted why it is so stiff. It's got a tiny bone in it. Nothing wrong with this as it gives your cat more calcium. My cat is a princes sand doesn't like working hard for her protein so she doesn't eat this treat. She does like rabbit pate and the freeze dried meals of rabbit from both Primal and Vital Essentials.I also recently got the salmon in store. My girl sadly doesn't like salmon however another cat I previously sat for enjoyed this option. I passed the treat off to their owner who said their cat immediately took to the treat. I also passed off rabbit and the minnow to this cat to which he too denied their flavors. For him, these proteins is too exotic.Still these are excellent treats for those whose pets actually like them. 5 of 5 stars all around. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vital Essentials Duck Liver Cat Treats, 0.9 oz | Freeze-Dried Raw | Single Ingredient | Grain Free, Gluten Free, Filler Free - Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Raw Cat Treats, Rabbit Bites, 0.9 oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/584790186-vital-essentials-freeze-dried-cat-treats-duck-single-ingredient-premium](https://www.desertcart.us/products/584790186-vital-essentials-freeze-dried-cat-treats-duck-single-ingredient-premium) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-24*
