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. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My cat loves this *by J***T on July 19, 2026* My cat goes crazy for these bites. I don’t mind because I know she’s getting good quality healthy food. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good *by J***E on July 7, 2026* Cat seems to like it ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a difference! *by J***H on June 24, 2025* My cat has been on freeze-dried raw since birth. The breeder had her on a competitor brand, so I continued with that. After a while, I noticed that the recipe of the other brand had changed. The nuggets got too dry, and the color has changed, too. I could no longer crumble with my fingers, and my cat would not eat it happily. When she also developed a loose stool, I knew I needed to switch. A friend recommended this brand, so I decided to try. What a difference! The nuggets are smaller, soft, and easy to crumble with no effort, it doesn't require a lot of fluid to hydrate and my cat goes crazy for it! The color is different too (the other brand used to be this color earlier, but not anymore). The only thing I regret is not switching her sooner. This is top-of-the-line quality! Your cat will thank you!. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Raw Beef & Chicken Entree & Mixer Cat Food Soft Nibs, 12 oz - Vital Essentials Minnows Cat Treats, 0.5 oz | Freeze-Dried Raw | Single Ingredient | Grain Free, Gluten Free, Filler Free - Vital Essentials® Freeze-Dried Raw Chicken Entree & Mixer Cat Food Crunchy Nibs, 12 oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/704865524-vital-essentials-freeze-dried-cat-food-beef-and-chicken-nibs](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/704865524-vital-essentials-freeze-dried-cat-food-beef-and-chicken-nibs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-11*
