Awesome , thank you so much . I am not having much luck with can foods so I thought I would try the freeze dried and add water .. I really hope they like it .. I requested samples of the Turkey . Hopefully Primal will send some , if not I will order a small bag on Chewy.com ..
Our cats eat a lot of all three of Primal's dehydrated foods: you just crumble them up into the dish, add water, squash/stir with a fork, and then serve. (Beef is, by far, the hardest to crumble.) We usually mix up various blends of the three foods so they get varied flavors. The cats love them and eat them up so they've worked out to be pretty economical for us because there's no waste. It did take a week or two to get the cats eating them consistently -- we originally fed freeze-dried and frozen together -- but they love them now. They eat about the equivalent of 2.5-3 nuggets each a day. Plus a can or two of something else. They're small but active!
I hope your cats like Primal, too!
P.S. Yes, it's complete.
Hugo is a big, big fan of primal freeze dried. He isn't a fan of the re hydrated version so I tend to crumble a nugget up and mix it in his wet for variety. it is also the only way for me to get him to eat his barf meat patties as well.
I sometimes mix Primal (or Stella & Chewy's, that's even more effective) into canned foods, too... sometimes it will "convince" the cats to eat something they don't really want!
Sigh - Primal is the only dehydrated raw complete that I can find here in Hong Kong. It does work to convince the cats to eat except when they get too smart and start to pick through the food for primal and ignore the rest of the food after they are done with primal... And then hop on the counter top to whine about the lack of primal in their food..
Yeah , I am definitely going to feed it with water added ..
Awesome , thank you . I requested some samples , they emailed me this morning and said they should be here within a week . Hope my cats like it .
I've been using Primal FD turkey for about a year now, both my cats really love it. One 14 oz bag lasts me a week, however, I feed a combo of other foods as well (Primal frozen rabbit and NV canned). I always add water, make it chunky, that's how the cats like it. I wish Primal had other flavors in FD, I only use their turkey. They are a good company and have full transparency, e.g., they disclose the sourcing of their ingredients to customers (on truthaboutpetfood), one of the few companies that do this. I trust this company. A little Primal FD goes a long way, I find it to be very cost effective (not as cost effective as a balanced homemade raw, however, I've saved money cutting down on canned foods using Primal). Good luck.
I'm not sure what the cost is of the canned food you are feeding, however, my canned food bill really went down once I started feeding FD Primal. It takes less FD raw for my two cats to feel sated versus canned. One of my cats doesn't like it super wet either so what I do, after I add the water, is take a pinch of a dry nugget and sprinkle it on top. Or, I'll take a FD raw meat treat, e.g., Origin or Pure Bites, and sprinkle that on top. The one cat that doesn't like the FD too wet then laps it up without a problem. Primal is less expensive than S&C. I like S&C ingredients since they don't use all the vegetables that Primal uses, however, the cats aren't thrilled with the food, I've tried the turkey and duck, duck goose.
Great , thank you .. My cats are so picky with wet food . I cannot find anything they will eat so I decided to try the Primal FD and add water .. They do eat one meal of kibble too .
@Maureen Bradley, it was you who was saying before that your prices are high, wasn't it? Yikes, those are crazy high. One of our local stores will order Stella & Chewy's frozen... the cats liked it, though they eventually rebelled. I think it got a little old/freezer burned. Oops on me.
