Whole Life Cat Living Treats for Cats – Human Grade Probiotics for Gut Health...

I have two cats. One has inflammatory bowel disease so he has a tendency to throw up a few times a week. He's on a special dry food but I do give him wet food that has minimal ingredients or that say"sensitive stomach." At first they had a hard time chewing them but I decided to put them in a pill crusher (where I crush his heart pills) and it makes a powder I sprinkle on the wet or dry food. They both seem to like them and even eat as a treat if I break them apart.They are kind of hard if not.If it helps with the throwing up I'll buy again.

We have 5 indoor, formerly feral cats that we've captured and adopted (now all are indoor, every spoiled cats). Over the years, we've been treating them with the common variety of cat treats found almost everywhere. However, after reading several scathing articles about the artificial ingredients injected into those treats, we decided to purchase a half dozen different very healthy treat products - to include this Whole Life Cat Living cat treats. However, our anticipation was met with a huge bust. After trying to give these treats to our cats, we were surprised to see that none of them liked it. They all first went over and smelled the treats, but then turned their noses up and walked away. I then decided to crumble them up a bit - because most of the morsels were a bit large - but even that didn't work. Just a quick smell, and taste, and again, they all walked away. So I tried for the next week, figuring it would just take time - but it was not to be. All 5 cats rejected the food permanently. Now, here's where it gets interesting. We also feed a half dozen outdoor feral cats on our patio on a daily basis. Then I figured, it won't be a complete waste if I feed those cats these treats. I then tried giving those cats the treats - and now get this - none of the outside feral cats would go near these treats (and they tend to eat anything you give them). In the end, all this talk about healthy, tasty treats meant nothing to both our indoor and outdoor cats - now go figure? So for us - and a warning for others before you buy - this was an expensive waste of money.

I purchased the chicken flavor. The consistency is like a meringue. Half my cats like it and half don’t. It’s not the manufacturer’s fault I think it has to do with the cats’ food preference and psychology. The ones that didn’t like it, it’s possible that there wasn’t enough chicken flavoring in it that the smell wasn’t as attractive to them. I noticed another one of my finicky eaters she has a smaller snout, had a somewhat liking to the smaller sized pieces (she ate one). It really just depends on what you’re cat likes. If you’re curious try one bag and see. The cats I have that do like it have weird quirks like they hate canned wet food and will not touch any (safe for cats) fresh meat. They only eat and like dry food. Other than that great product for supplementing probiotic if your cat isn’t too picky. I think I’m going to try the other flavor for them and see if that doesn’t resolve my picky eaters dilemma.

Today is only their first impression. Kitties sniffed and even licked, but weren’t interested. However, after I snapped one in half to let them sniff the freshly exposed inside, they seemed to like it more and ate a couple. Then they were done with them for awhile. Texture is like they’re freeze-dried, kind of like merengue because they melt in the kitties’ mouth. The kitties liked them alright, but didn’t go crazy for them.

Staple in our household for dogs and cats alike. Problems with a cat refusing to eat (I got some picky eaters)? Crush one of the pieces and sprinkle the ‘sugar’ on top. Works like a charm, every time. This freeze dried chicken is fresh, soft , can be easily crushed. Never a bad smell, never hard!

First of all, let me say, I bought the old formula for at least a year now. My cat has serious digestive issues and I added these every single day. Things have been going very well. He didn't mind the pumpkin soft dissolvable shoes, they were kind of camouflaged in the food, and I was very pleased. Now with your new formula, it's completely different. Completely different. Not only does it stink, but it's hard and hard to bite, and my cat will not eat it. I read it three times to make sure it had the same ingredients but whatever you did, I am not able to buy it anymore. I had to give it to my feral cats outside and I'm not sure they even liked it. It's too expensive to give away. I'm very disappointed

I had been giving my cat these probiotics regularly for more than two years to help with her allergies. I would crush the treats into a powder easily and mix it in with her wet food. These treats worked really well to keep her allergies away. However, the brand has changed their formula, and now the treats are as hard as a rock. My cat refuses to eat them as they are, and it is extremely difficult to crush them up to put in her food. When I try, it just breaks into large chunks, and she just eats around those chunks, avoiding them. I tried to make it work, but it just isn't happening. I will be switching to a different brand so I can give my cat the probiotics she needs to keep her allergies away. I really hope the brand listens to these many, many negative reviews and changes their formula back to how it was.

My cats LOVED the old shape/formula which WAS a 5star product. They still eat the new formula but they have a much more difficult time eating them now due to how hard they are. The hardness varies too. I would love to keep getting these and serving them to my babies as the benefits are great for them but I'm so concerned about their teeth at this point.
