Best Freeze-Dried Cat Food of 2025

"My cats absolutely love these Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Minnows! They are all-natural and raw, making them great for their health, and I appreciate that they are packed with protein. Their small size is perfect for treating and rewarding my cats, and they go wild for them! Plus, there are no artificial additives, so I feel good about giving them these treats. The bag lasts a few weeks, and the price is reasonable. Highly recommend for any cat owner!"

"I have tried other brands, but my cats only eat Vital Essentials! They are always crunchy, help with their teeth, and provide an omega boost. I usually buy the larger dog bag because it offers more for the money, and it's the same product. I just wish there was an even bigger bag available. Also, the cats love the chicken hearts!"

"I gave my two cats these treats for the first time last week. Initially, they were very skeptical, but after a while, both of them LOVED it! From now on, I'm going to cut each treat in half since there aren’t many in the package to make them last longer. Not a big deal considering the treat size. I will definitely be purchasing this again!"

"I wanted to start a raw diet for my Devon Rex but didn't have the time. After discussing it with my vet, we decided on Stella & Chewy Freeze Dried Raw Cat Morsels. My cat loves the Chicken flavor and eats it well. I ordered various flavors, but the Salmon and Beef made him sick. The Chicken, Duck, and Turkey have been great, and since my cat is only 6 pounds, we manage with one serving a day. The cost is a bit higher, but it lasts long on my subscribe and save plan every two months. I found that pouring warm water over the morsels helps break them up easily, and I consider this a great investment overall."

"My senior kitty has been very picky lately, so I've been trying different products. She has a fish allergy, which makes me careful with ingredients. Thankfully, this product has limited ingredients, and she hasn't had any issues. When I first gave her the Duck Duck Goose flavor, she devoured every morsel! I noticed she acts like a kitten again since starting this food, proving the high-quality ingredients are digestible for her!"

"I really like Stella & Chewy's Freeze-Dried Raw Cat Dinner Morsels. The idea of feeding my cats raw food in a convenient format is fantastic, especially since it's grain-free for those with sensitive stomachs. They really enjoy the taste, and even though I wish it were more affordable, it's a good way to incorporate raw food into their diet without breaking the bank. If you're looking for high-quality, healthy food, this is a solid choice!"

"My cat is absolutely obsessed with the turkey nibs! At 17 years old, she was diagnosed with IBD and pancreatitis, and I regretted not switching her to a raw diet sooner. After discovering freeze-dried raw, she stopped vomiting, regained a healthy weight, and is full of energy again. If you're considering this for your cat, especially the turkey flavor, give it a try!"

"I have a cat with a more sensitive stomach, and other brands have made him throw up, but this food never does! Both my cats love it, and I appreciate the smaller, crunchier pieces that help with their teeth. I couldn't find a better-priced option, and I hope they never stop selling this!"

"I discovered this product at my local pet store, but they often run out. Thankfully, I found it on Amazon at a better price with the convenience of delivery. It's a relief to know that my pets are getting top-quality food without the chemicals often found in other products. My animals have never been healthier!"

"I forgot to take a picture, but my cats love these freeze-dried salmon bites! They come running as soon as I open the bag. Knowing they're free of artificial additives gives me peace of mind. The pieces are lightweight, so a little goes a long way. Despite a minor inconvenience of some pieces being a bit large, these treats are now a staple in my home!"

"I have two cats, and only one enjoys these treats, but that's okay. My pickier cat will only eat them if mixed with her lunch. The other cat absolutely loves them! I appreciate the diet-appropriate, high-quality ingredients, but it would be nice if I could find these treats for a better price."

"My cat is quite picky, but he really enjoys the rabbit bites. They are a good size, and I’ve already purchased two bags without any issues."

"I have two cats who absolutely love Feline Natural Topper. It's a unique and healthy food supplement that's hard to find elsewhere."

"I started feeding my three older cats this food after realizing how unhealthy their previous diet was. Now, they’re much healthier and even more playful. It's amazing to see them enjoying their meals!"

"I introduced this product to my cat, but unfortunately, she vomited several times afterward. I recommend being cautious when introducing it to your own pets."

“I have five cats who go crazy for this freeze-dried food! As soon as I shake the container, they all rush to me, meowing with excitement. It feels great to know they’re getting the nutrients missing from their dry kibble. I often mix it with dry kibble or toss it around for fun, and they absolutely love it!”

“I had high hopes for this freeze-dried cat food due to its quality ingredients, but it turned out to be just okay. My cats enjoyed it initially but lost interest after a few meals. I ended up mixing it with other food to keep them engaged, which was a bit disappointing.”

“These treats are a huge hit with my cat! She loves them so much that I think she'd try to open the container herself if she could. They are single-ingredient and made without artificial preservatives, which I really appreciate. However, I wish the salmon was wild-caught instead of farm-raised.”

"I previously used a different brand and got a sometimes-I-like-it feedback from 2 out of my 3 cats. After trying this brand, I now get a great response from 2 out of 3. One of my cats loves fresh chicken and chicken liver, so she prefers this. The second one enjoys liver but is not too fond of fresh chicken; however, she still likes this product. The third cat, unfortunately, remains attached to Friskies, but at least she's eating more nutritious grain-free food now. Overall, this is a great product with essential vitamins and nutrients that cats need. I plan to continue purchasing it."

"I’ve been feeding my three cats various protein sources from this company, and they absolutely go crazy for all of them! They’ve never shown this level of enthusiasm for any food in the 16 years we've been together. I add water or homemade chicken bone broth to the dry chunks, which they love. One of my older cats, who is quite picky, now adores this food and is putting on weight with a beautiful coat and sparkling eyes. I’m thrilled with these products!"

"I’ve been a loyal customer of the freeze-dried rabbit for months, as my five cats love it so much I had it on a subscription. However, I recently found bits of blue film and hard black material in the nuggets, which concerns me greatly. Given the recent avian flu issues, I can’t trust this brand anymore and have decided to stop using it. I appreciate Amazon's customer service for handling my refund."

"As a raw food enthusiast for my pets, I’m always on the lookout for new treats. These are a real winner! All my boys love them, and they have a satisfying crunch and good flavor."

"I bought these for my cat, and they are the perfect size for him to enjoy. The jar is fantastic; it keeps the treats fresher than bags, and my cat can't chew through the plastic!"

"I tried these treats for my cat, and he hasn’t thrown up for a month since I started giving them to him. I gradually increased the dose from 1 to 4 per day and crumbled them into his dry food."

"I highly recommend the BARF diet for pets, and Primal Nuggets are a great option. After switching my cat to these nuggets, he has thrived and seems much healthier. I wish I had found them sooner!"

"I don't usually write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with Primal Nuggets. My cat Cooper had serious issues with feline hyperesthesia, and after switching his diet, his symptoms have improved significantly. His fur is softer, and he seems happier than ever!"

"Although my cat is picky, he enjoys the Primal Nuggets. I do think they are a bit pricey, but for my fur baby, money is no object."

“I was initially hesitant to switch from dry kibble, but as soon as I opened the bag, my cats couldn't wait for me to add water and break it up. They seem either sick of their old diet or this food is incredibly tasty. Plus, it smells just like chicken — a relief! As long as they enjoy it, I’ll keep buying it.”

“For years, my cats lost interest in several canned foods, possibly due to formula changes. When one of my cats got sick, I tried various new options, and the turkey patties were a hit! I now crumble them with water since they’re used to wet food. They love it and gobble it up quickly. I appreciate the quality ingredients and the lack of fillers, though it isn’t cheap.”

“I got the chicken snacky pack for my cat. While it smells a bit bad, he absolutely loves it! I crumble it in my hand, add some water, and if he doesn’t eat it all at once, I just add more soup later. The pack has 9-10 patties, which offer good protein at a price similar to regular cans. He enjoys it, but he’s started demanding it over his dry food.”
