## Description

Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Raw Rabbit Cat Food Soft Mini Patties is a high protein, grain free cat food made with 99% rabbit, organs, and bone to support the natural diet of obligate carnivores. Freeze dried to help preserve aroma and flavor, this raw cat food helps entice picky eaters, reduce food boredom, and encourage consistent eating. The mini patties format offers a unique combination of structure and flexibility. Pre-formed portions make it easy to control servings, while each patty can be broken apart, crumbled, or rehydrated with water to create a softer, moisture-rich texture similar to gravy or pâté. By delivering minimally processed raw nutrition in a customizable format, Mini Patties make it easy to tailor meals for selective eaters and multi-cat households with different preferences. Serve as a complete and balanced meal or use as a cat food topper or mixer with dry or wet cat food to add variety and nutrition to your cat’s routine. Many cat parents choose to pair freeze-dried raw food with wet food as part of a mixed feeding approach that introduces raw nutrition while maintaining familiar feeding habits. Start by adding a small amount and build from there—even a little raw can help support long-term health and more moments together. Available in a variety of protein options, Vital Essentials makes it easy to rotate recipes and keep cats engaged at mealtime while delivering minimally processed nutrition. Made in North America’s largest freeze-drying facility for pet food, it’s a simple way to feed raw with confidence—so you can feel good about what you’re serving every day.

Review: Scavenger hunt of bones - Mid product. Truly quality control issues. I get that this is supposed to be raw and grounded up rabbits and the ingredients seem great. But I can’t tell you enough how big and sharp the bones are. It’s good for my cats, they like it, but I don’t. Every time I’ve purchased this I feel like I have to do a scavenger hunt of bones. Except there is no reward waiting for me. Only perpetual torture. The fact I have to sit there and spend at least an hour and a half trying to break apart all of the patties so I can dig through the insane amount of bones just to create a good enough batch for them for like 2-3 weeks makes this product not worth it. I have two cats btw. Honestly painful, for both me and potentially for them. It’s really dangerous if they’ve ingested all of the bones I’ve found in a single batch. Which adds up to like at least 1/5th of a bag. Wish I can show a picture, but I stopped buying this because it’s such a hassle. Also, it smells weird.
Review: Quality - Bought twice and had the same results: half crumbs, half small bits. Rarely will you find a whole square solid. The cats didn't like it as much as I thought they would.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is raw freeze-dried food safe for my pet?**
A: Absolutely. 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.
