"The cats went crazy over these treat packets. Once they smell it they all come running and try to eat right out of the packet. Both flavors seemed to be enjoyed equally. You get a decent amount of food in each packet so all three of my cats got a nice share from one pouch."

— Diane

"Good evening, Peaches is difficult to say the least and unfortunately, I have more failures than successes with Peaches. She won't eat the Inaba Churu Bisque Chicken Recipe. She hates the scallop one and at least tried the salmon, but only tried and then waited for another food, more to her liking..."

Bottom Line

If your cat enjoys lickable treats and doesn't mind a strong seafood smell, this product is worth trying. However, be aware that the texture might not be to everyone's liking.
