"These “soft chews” are rock hard and too big for cats. Even my dog had trouble eating them. I put them in my coffee grinder to make a powder so they wouldn’t be wasted and managed to crack the plastic grinder cover in the process."

Bottom Line

Avoid these chews especially for picky eaters. Consider other alternatives with better acceptance and lower failure rates. Monitor for strong negative reactions and consult a vet for better alternatives.
