I second that. I hate most cat treats as they are full of artificial additives that will not only create an unhealthy addiction but medical problems in cats. They are junk! I hate these companies. It's not enough that the food giants are making America sick with their over processed, artificial additive filled junk. Now they have to turn quick profits from our pets by creating unnecessary addiction and illness. I seldom use treats, but if I have to, I'll use ones that are 100% meat and nothing more. There are many brands out there that make single ingredient meat treats - Orijens is one of them. I feel sorry for people (and their cats!) who have been duped by the advertising, marketing and PR gimmicks that tell them the treats are healthy for their cats.
I registered just to say this- Don't give your cats temptations
google search it- they are killing cats left and right according to the reports. And I have first hand experience that they are highly addictive and your cat will become less loving after getting addicted ot the treats. And if you try to stop giving them to your cat, it won't eat or anything and basially starve itself.
Those things are highly dangerous and need to be recalled.
Don't take a chance. Get rid of those and give it something else. Do your research before you buy anything. Many cat litters are also toxic.
We talk all the time about regular meals, but in the two and a half months I have been here, I have not seen a single thread about treats.
Considering cats eat less than an ounce each time (Patricia usually gets three) and treats are also used as training tools, obviously we do not want to worry as much about the ingredients as we rightfully do with the bags and cans with stupid misleading labels. But I am wondering if all the discussions about carrageenan, vegetables, and grains are relevant to cat treats because Patricia eats them every day and during his last two weeks, Wilbur refused to eat anything else. I guess it is like eating frozen yogurt instead of ice cream.
I always buy Pounce for one reason: I hate the containers Whisker Lickens treats are packed in. Patricia always loved Pounce. Petco has two flavors - chicken and tuna - in bottles, which are easier for me than bags. Patricia has no preference. If it is a treat it takes five seconds to eat. She always washes them down right away, so I think it encourages her to drink more.
