Stella & Chewy’s Freeze-Dried Raw Cat Dinner Morsels

my 3-month old kitten loves these! currently using as only a topper in addition to wet food - this size is super affordable to try. she also had no hesitation eating these the first time I gave them to her and she’s usually a big critic! these smell exactly like the ingredients list, and they also didn’t crumble during shipping which I was worried about. I’m definitely thinking about buying the larger bag next time.

I finally figured out that Georgie is allergic to chicken (not like a VET could have suggested that might be her problem!), so I bought a bag of this to tide me over till I could make some food with only ruminant meat.All my cats love Stella and Chewy's Bountiful Beef and digest it well. And while it is expensive, it is biologically appropriate with all the organ meats included as well as vitamins and minerals. There are no gross seed oils, legumes, rice, etc, or chemicals. This is the only commercial food I buy now, and use as a treat and as a supplement to their homemade food.

I wanted to start a raw diet for my Devon Rex but I just don't have the time and this was a good alternative. I did speak to my vet about this and we went over the ingredients and she approved the Stella & Chewy Freeze Dried Raw Cat Morsels. My cat loved the Chicken and eats it very well. I did order all different flavors and the Salmon and Beef both made him sick at his stomach but the Chicken, Duck and Turkey have been great so I will stick with those 3. The cost is a bit higher but my cat is only 6 pounds so we just do one serving a day and this has lasted a long time. I have it on my subscribe and save every 2 months. Lots of complaints about how to use them but if you just pour a little warm water over them and let them set for a few minutes they break up easily. The Beef is the hardest to break and then the turkey. The chicken is easiest and the Salmon and Duck are good but not as easy as the chicken. Lots of complaints about there being a lot of powder and yes the easier to break up morsels are more powdery but you should be breaking them up anyway so that is really not relevant. All in all for me great investment.

My cats love the beef flavor!!!! My cats also love the chicken but the turkey, not so much. I haven’t bought the other flavors yet. I wish this wasn’t so pricey as my cats love it. I do hydrate it but it took about 3 minutes to make sure it had soak the water like a sponge as I wanted my 5 cats to get all the liquids they need as they are on an all wet food diet. It’s also great crushing it with my hand and sprinkling it on top or mixing it on their wet food. One of my cats even drinks the leftover “broth” that it creates after they are all the soaked up the pieces. When I give them the pieces, I find that it’s easier for them to eat it when you cut it in half with a fork. I included a photo comparing its size to the treats. Once moistened, it doesn’t change in size but it does get softer. It’s easier to cut it in half when it’s a bit dampened by the water. I will get more but only with a discount as this is very pricey. I wished I bought more when it was on a discount but I don’t know how much they would like it. I also store it in plastic containers as my cats can smell it from the original bags that it comes in and they try to bite the bag to get through the food.

My cat isn’t typically picky- we found him as a kitten in a Disneyland parking lot, so he’s kind of a laid back, carefree guy who will eat almost anything (he loves turkey legs and churros, but that’s not sustainable).The problem is, nothing excited him, food-wise. He always seemed to be intensely bored with both his kibble and his wet food lol. The only thing that ever interested him was when we opened of a can of tuna, and we know that’s not good for him.Getting home from In n Out the other day, I watched as my cat strolled over to his bowl, maintaining eye contact with me the entire time (maybe glancing at the bag in my hand for emphasis), and the look on his face very clearly said, “In n Out? Seriously? But for me this kibble stuff AGAIN? What. Ever.”So I decided to look for something that would give him some food joy, and $10 was definitely not too much to spend in my quest.SHOCKING results. Like you know when you order something weird on Amazon and you can imagine both the best and the worst possible outcomes? This was the best possible- plus a rainbow and a unicorn.My cat LOVES this food. He is sitting outside of my bedroom door right now staring at me, something he hasn’t done a lot since he was young (don’t miss it that much tbh), waiting for his breakfast. He also follows me to the kitchen, tries to redirect me if I get distracted, and puts both paws up on the cupboard door and talks to me when he knows I’m rehydrating the chicken. I obviously can’t be certain, but I think what he’s saying is, “It’s about time! Real food! thank you thank you thank you! I love you so much!”Is this magic? Totally worth $10!We put a few in water and let them sit for a minute, then use a fork to break them up to a consistency that looks a lot like cooked ground turkey. If there’s extra water, my cat thinks it’s gravy, and he laps that up, which is also good for hydration.No smell!I believe some people felt the price was too high, but we only use 3 or 4 of the nuggets for our huge beast of a cat. Once re-hydrated, we mix it with his kibble to help slow down his eating (because he was totally scarfing this stuff at first). The $10 bag has lasted a week, and there’s plenty left.This is one of those purchases I felt obligated to write a review for, because the world is a really stupid place, and we all need to stick together and share the genuinely good (not being paid to say that, I have no stake in this), just really good, stuff :) :)

My cat absolutely loves this Stella & Chewy’s topper! She’s usually a picky eater, but as soon as I sprinkle this on her food, she dives right in. I love that the ingredients are high-quality and natural, so I feel good about giving it to her. It adds extra flavor, nutrition, and variety to her meals without upsetting her stomach. The resealable bag keeps it fresh, and a little goes a long way. Definitely worth it if you have a picky eater or just want to boost your cat’s regular meals.
