Review: He’s tried them all, let’s rank them! - My cat has tried the minnows, rabbit, salmon bites, ahi tuna. I will rank them with his favorites and a little note about each one. Minnows- Absolutely his favorites, devoured the entire bag would wake me up every day at 9:00am to get a morning minnow. Salmon bites- Second favorite, loved them. Very stinky but once the bag is closed no harm done. Much more food for your money! Rabbit- Come in a close third behind salmon because he also loves rabbit. They do not smell as much and are quick and easy to give my cat. He enjoys the flavor! Last is the tuna bites- They smelled awful and I felt that my cat preferred them least. They also gave him runny diarrhea so this one will not be a repurchase! Hope this helps!
Review: My cat is obsessed! - These tuna bites are a huge hit with my cat! The moment I open the bag, she comes running and won’t stop meowing until she gets one. They’re soft and easy to chew, which is great even for older cats. They smell a bit fishy (as expected), but not in a bad way. I’ve already repurchased and will definitely keep these stocked!

## 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.
