GOOOD
Vital essential can never go, do be mindful there are dried bones in some pieces but, they already mentioned and is really big so I see it I think vital essential has really great ingredients. That’s why I always buy it. The quality top. I’d say it worth the money because it’s real meat and fresh. I do like the crunchy ones better cause the soft nipples are almost just like the squares and really soft. Smells like meat

cats love it but it expensive
my cats love this so so much, unfortunately it's far too expensive for me to buy regularly unless it is on sale. i initially purchased on flash sale and i hope it goes on sale again soon because my cats truly enjoyed it. seems like high quality, tasty, and nutritious food. smells awful, but doesn't all cat food?

Great for cats that have had majority of teeth removed!!
My cat loves this!!! I bought it to use at snacks because he has had 14 teeth removed mostly all back ones and all the snacks on the market tear up his gums leading to infection. I break these up and he is so happy. I don’t have to add water or anything. So happy I took a chance on this product!

First bag was loved, 2nd not so much, 3rd order?
My cat loves these "soft" pellets. I love that i dont have to tear the blocks up for her to have bite size bits. I (we, her & me) dont love the rotting carcass smell this last bag has. She still asks for them, i think, but doesn't eat em. So after she has ignored them for a day or so, i toss em outside. Someone eats them after they are less putrid smelling. Hesitant to get a 3rd bag of them. Have to hope the next bag isn't as gross smelling. She is loving the beef&chicken entre one, (first bag of the soft pellets. She loves the patty version, too.)

yum yum yum
cat LOVES it! and since she is on a restricted diet now due to allergies, I was happy to find this. Have already ordered again. She will eat it plain, crumbled over her wet food, or moistened by itself.

Reckless manufacturing process
Manufacturing process is reckless and leaves many large bone/beak fragments that could pose a choking risk for cats or damage to their teeth. Pictured are all the inedible fragments I removed from ONE bowl of duck entree food. The pieces pictured are hard as rocks and I discovered them as I was mashing the food because they literally made a “clink” sound against the fork. I can understand a piece here and there but this much is excessive and took me almost a half hour to find and dig them all out. I never have this issue with Stella & Chewy products and will no longer be purchasing this brand.

Fresh delicious pet food in an easy to seal bag.
Always fresh, a good seal bag and our cat can't eat the chicken fast enough. Arrived right on time.
