Nulo Freestyle Freeze-Dried Raw, Ultra-Rich Grain-Free Dry Cat Food for All Breeds and Life Stages with BC30 Probiotic for Digestive and Immune Health, Chicken & Salmon, 5.5 Ounce

My pet cat is 18 years old. He loves his product. He has stopped, throwing up other food and his fur is softer and he is acting like he is a younger cat playing and more active. He doesn’t sleep all day like he did before .This food has given him a new lease on life. I would recommend this freeze dried food to other cat owners. I am very satisfied with this product. Only wish it came in larger quantity.

My cat will not eat without this mixed in.She LOVES this.Goes crazy over it

After seeing dandruff on two of my cats, I did some research and discovered my cats skin may be dry from lack of moisture in their diet. In the beginning, all 3 of my cats were on a dry food diet. But after watching Jackson Galaxy’s YouTube video on food differences, I decided to change that. Wet canned food research was giving me a headache because I have a cat who is also allergic to most grains. Even some wet food brands claiming to be ‘grain-free’ still had rice and corn in the ingredients list! So I began searching Raw food. I found 2 different brands on Amazon and gave them a shot, compared, and fed them to my cats. Here are the Nulo Freestyle Freeze dried raw food results. These were the test subjects: Banana - Age 6 - Breed Gray Chartreux - High energy and high affection. Picky eater. Have to trick her to eat healthy. She’ll only eat the raw food with the smallest amount of water in the bowl, she likes to have some dry bits of food in between, and some crunchy cat treats on top to bribe her into eating. It took her 4 days before I could get her to eat taste a little bit of raw food, she actually still prefers her dry food. Despite her pickiness, she does finish ALL of the Nulo brand in her bowl. The same cannot be said for the other competitors brand I bought. Derpy - Age 10 - American Shorthair Tabby - Largest and most sensitive cat. Loves to eat TOO much, will eat other cats food if I don’t keep an eye on her. She developed a grain and corn allergy at age 6, finding safe foods for her can be challenging. She likes her food to be fully hydrated with water, but won’t eat it if there is too much water on the top. She is no fool and doesn’t wish to ‘fill up on water.” She had zero difficulties with the inclusion of raw food into her daily routine. Pooky - Age 12 - Breed American Shorthair Black -Oldest cat. Laid back, patient, has arthritis and asthma. “Don’t cite the old magic to me witch, I was there when it was written!” Pooky prefers the raw food heavily watered down with lots of warm water, to the point there is a pool of gravy fats that appears at the top. She’ll drink all the gravy water, then wait about 15 minutes and come back to finish the rest of her meal. Pooky had a little difficulty in the beginning getting used to the raw food, it wasn’t until I began to heavily water it down that she would accept and eat all of it. She can’t eat it all in one go tho, and paces herself. ****Each cat is having dry food in the morning and then raw food with water in the evening. Measured half of what they need for the day based on the bag measurement instructions on the back of the food bag. My picky princess cat Banana still prefers dry food over raw food, so I don’t think I’ll be able to do a full transition to freeze-dried raw for awhile.**** Pros- -Appetizing color. The pellets have a pink/orange color similar to a salmon fillet. Remember, cats can see color. While it is different from what we see from our eyes, they definitely prefer something that looks like meat compared to boring brown canned food. -Mouth-watering smell. I won’t lie, I was adding water to their food one night and I hadn’t eaten for a bit. The foods smell gets potent after adding water, and hit me like an aromatic bomb and made my tummy growl. 😅 The smell is so intense that the cats begin meowing for their food as soon as the water is added. -Nutrition - The bag says they have met all cats nutritional needs and have been approved by AAFCO Cat Food Nutrient Profile for All Stages of Life. In short, you don’t have to go out and buy a bunch of vitamin supplements for your cat to meet it’s daily nutrition levels. It’s a ‘guarantee’ that the food already contains all the protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals your cats little body requires daily. -Ingredients - Something that really caught my eye with this food is that they are giving the cat a lot of the chicken breast and thigh meat, not JUST the organ meat. The chicken and salmon meat is higher than the organ meat on the ingredients list, meaning there is more cuts of real, whole meat than the stinky organ meat (that my picky eater cat is NOT fond of!). -Freeze dried. Did you know that freeze dried food only loses 3% of its original nutrition? You do now, and you can tuck it safely away in your pantry. It will spoil however, yes freeze dried food expires! The bag I got said it would have expired by April 2022. Freeze dried is a natural preserving method. So be sure to use it when you have it and only buy it when you need it. -Light weight. Until you add water to it, the bag is so light weight that you may question if there is actual food inside. -REAL raw food and bones. Cats are carnivores, and carnivores typically devour their prey bones and all. Those bones contain needed cat nutrition. The bones are small and ground up so there is no choking risk to your cat. -Resealable bag. I didn’t have to go out and buy a container to keep the food in. The bag seals down so easy, with no struggle to “line up” the ziplock cause it isn’t a ziplock seal. It’s a Velcro seal. Nice! Con: -Price. Yes, remember I mentioned buying two different brands. This brand is a whopping $5.00 higher than the competition. $5.00 doesn’t sound much more expensive until you realize you’ll need a bag of this every 2 weeks. -Pellets. I’m sure the companies can’t help this because of the machines that perform the freeze-dried process on the raw food. The problem is, the pellets are SO large that none of my cats risked chomping into them. Every time I make this food, I have to break apart each and every pellet which is easier to do when it’s dry, which means… -Frequent hand-washing. Remember even tho it’s lost the moisture THIS IS RAW MEAT. If you drop it on your countertop, you need to disinfect where it touched. Since I have to crush the pellets before my cats will eat the food, I have to wash my hands to get the salmon-stink off my hands. Twice. This food is POTENT, which is a fantastic quality for the cats but a con quality for me. I suppose I could just buy some disposable food prep gloves in the future. SUMMARY: I’m giving 4 out of 5 stars. This food is high quality with minor cons and enjoyed by all 3 of my cats. The one star deduction is for the price, because there exist other more affordable freeze-dried raw food brands that also meet the cats daily nutrition.

So, this package was more sandy than chunky… I don’t know if it was squashed in its travels…but I spent more than an hour with a sieve trying to ferret out pieces…which is a waste…about a 1/4 was chunky…as it was supposed to be…1st time this has happened. Usually, the chicken is in nice pieces…and Nulo is a great product.

What's to say? I have to give it five stars, because I'm not the one eating it. I don't make these choices. It appears to be re-formulated (?) because she likes it more than ever. Now I keep back-up because it had a history of being out of stock.

After my cat finally got used to this food, he now eats it out of the automatic feeder. It is expensive and wish that they could find a way to make it less expensive. The major problem with it is that a lot of the pellets crumble in the bag making it hard to use in a feeder and then can only be used over kibbles. I have not tried to make it a wet food since my cat does not eat wet food. It is very good for you pet. You probably will have to use it as a supplement to other food and use it in little amounts to make it last. I think that this product could use a better packaging and shipping in a box to help stop the crumbling problem.

I purchased this for my little girl who gets occasional ins. She is 1 of 4. I prepared as directed and she snubbed it. To make sure it wasn’t just her I made some for her sister and brothers. They all had the same reaction. The size of each kibble stayed pretty much the same after I added the water and didn’t get soggy. The food does have a very strong fish oil and vitamin smell to it so maybe that turned them off. I placed a bowl with the remaining prepared food in it outside, I will be surprised to see if the opossum likes it.

About half of the bag was decomposed into powder which my cats refused to eat once I turned it to a paste by adding water. Cats loved it in solid form. Spent a lot of time sifting out the powder. Expensive when half of it's a waste for my cats. Won't buy again.

All our cats would give two paws up for this treat. Each cat has a preference: toss it as a treat to chase, in the bowl plain , and one prefers with a little water to soften it. Either way, it is quality food or treats

Not everyone enjoys the same food and Bandit is the same, chew on plastic and not eat- this he eats!

My cat refuses them but the dogs love them!

I was expecting great results for the price as it is very expensive, $18.00 for 4 ounces of food. My cat is a diabetic so I have to watch his diet extremely carefully. Well, he will not touch this food even when I tried to hide it in his other diabetic wet canned food. I am very disappointed with this product and I want a full refund for this. I don't believe in your product and I will not recommend this to anyone that has cats ..and I have a great many friends that do have cats !!

mes chats refusent cette bouffe et un des deux mange n'importe quoi
