Cat demands it, just as cheap as canned food!
I got the 3.7oz chicken snacky pack for my boy. Smells bad, therefore he loves it! I just crumble them in my hand, put it in a dish, and add some water - if he doesn't eat it all in the first hour or so I'll come back and add more soup (water) to it. The little pack has 9-10 patties in it, so they're about the same price as regular cans but have much more protein. Since the serving size is 3 patties for my chunky man, I've been giving him one a day and about 1/2-2/3 his regular amount of dry food as we attempt a light diet. Pros: healthy, inexpensive, cat enjoys it Cons: cat DEMANDS it and will put off eating his dry food if he suspects he's getting more chicken soups.

Great snack for cats
My cats loved it. A little too much lol they chewed through the bag and one of them got sick. I had it up high but they found a way to it.

Esta descompuesto, el olor al abrir la bolsa fue terrible
Siempre compro este producto de esta marca, pero en mi รบltima compra al abrir el empaque el olor que saliรณ fue horrible, como si estuviera descompuesto es imposible que mi gatita que ama este tipo de comida se la pueda comer, trate la primera vez y no quiso pero una segunda vez esta descompuesta.... trate de hacer una devoluciรณn y no lo permitieron. Lรกstima no volverรฉ a comprar

Stank!
When this product first came out, the food didnโt have a foul smell like it did. My cat loves this but it is the worst smelling cat food now! It smell like carcass! I am trying other cat foods to see if I can switch it to something that we can also tolerate.

100% cat approved
I recently began giving my cat raw food. He had been on a wet and dry food diet but he was constantly throwing up. I did some research about the problems with dry food and decided to try raw. I put at least 1/4 cup of water in a dish with one patty (I break it up) and add a quail egg. He devours it!! He's only vomitted once in 3 weeks (hair ball)!! Iโve also noticed that he doesnโt ask me for sink water any more bc I think heโs getting enough by lapping up the 1/4 cup 2x a day. I swear I can tell he is so much happier now. He barely will touch his dry food at all but I leave out in case he needs a snack in between meals. I wish I knew about this option for raw for all my previous cats bc it seems to suit them as carnivores so much better. (Side note, he is also OBSESSED with vital essential freeze dried minnows as a treat. Def try for you cat!)

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.

Best way to feed raw in a pinch
Dewey absolutely loves this freeze dried meal! 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!
