My indoor cat goes crazy for churu cat treats chicken. I usually pair them with Pure Cravings wet food or sprinkle a few bites on Nutra Nuggets. The lickable texture is perfect for picky eaters, and portioning from the tubes is easy. I love that the ingredients are mostly real meat, so I feel good giving them as snacks or meal toppers. It’s not a full meal replacement, but seeing her so excited makes it worth it. The variety packs, like 50 or 60 count, also last a while, which is convenient for multi-cat households.
Purina friskies playfuls with salmon and shrimp flavor cat treats are a fun addition to my cats’ snack rotation. I also mix in Purina Pro Plan cat treats crunchy bites during playtime to keep them motivated. Purina Dentalife cat dental treats help with oral hygiene. Their main meals are Nutra Nuggets or Kirkland Signature dry food, so treats are just for fun. They love the variety and textures. Snack time is always a bonding moment, and I haven’t noticed any stomach issues. The treats are easy to buy online and at local stores.
I ordered a Smalls cat food sampler to see if my cats would eat it, and they went crazy for the bird and chicken flavors. I usually feed Nutra Nuggets or Nature’s Domain for dry food, but Smalls feels fresher and more natural. I mix the wet pate with a little water to soften it, and my senior cat eats it without problems. No stomach upset, normal litter box habits, and energy is up. I can see myself slowly transitioning my cats fully to Smalls, though the monthly cost is definitely higher than Costco Kirkland bags.
The UK focus makes sense for fresh food requiring cold chain logistics. International shipping of refrigerated products becomes prohibitively expensive and complicated. For UK residents this looks like quality option. For everyone else, need to find local fresh food alternatives like Smalls or Nom Nom in US.
