Vital Essentials Cat Treats, Chicken Hearts, Freeze Dried | Single Ingredient | 0.8 OZ | Pack of 6

updated review July 1, 2026 The only thing that I would change is, it is expensive to continue to buy it. My cat ended up, loving this that she eats it more often than not. On that note, I will buy it again but chewy.com has better pricing for a bigger bag, if you do the subscription. otherwise than that it’s a great product. My cat loves it but after reading the other reviews, I can see why people said it was kind of expensive, especially with the way the economy is right now. I saw some reviews where it did say you did not get very many of the treats for what you paid for. But it is so worth it, I am very in tune to making sure my cat gets the best nutrients which saves on vet bills. as far as the questions how much you get, there’s not a lot of treats, but they’re huge pieces. I have just been cutting up the pieces for my cat and it will last you a lot longer than you think. and if this is anything like food, it’s going by volume not how much is in the actual bag, but it will last you a long time because you have to cut them up. They are very big pieces. The flavor is great because I had bought the freeze dried treats from Costco. My cat did not like them. The minute I gave her these she ate them up and then when she saw it on the kitchen counter, she even jumped on the counter to get it off the counter to eat them. So on that note, I’m gonna give flavor a five star. I would definitely recommend this, especially if you have a picky eater when it comes to freeze dry. I would definitely buy these again, I like the idea how the company showed how exactly they freeze dry these treats and how they stand behind it

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My 11-month-old European Maine Coon absolutely loves these treats! They're her favorite reward, and they've been incredible for training. Within just one week, she learned to high five, fist bump, sit, stand, and even "talk" on command because she was so motivated to earn one. I also love that they're made from a single ingredient and are packed with high-quality protein, which is perfect for a growing giant breed like a Maine Coon. I feel good knowing I'm rewarding her with something healthy instead of treats filled with unnecessary ingredients. If you have a food-motivated cat, especially a growing kitten or large breed, these are definitely worth trying. They've become a staple in our house!

I frequently get these for my cats. It's great for them. It doesn't really have a palatable smell but I cut it up as food toppers for them. they love the taste, and the quality of it is perfect because it comes whole and not crushed up.

I bought these for my cats honestly did not think they were going to be the size that they are but my cats absolutely go bonkers for them will definitely be buying more again. The quality is great apparently the taste is really great because they beg for them.

My cat loves it! The ingredients are just chicken hearts without chemicals. Health for cat, good taste

So, before you buy this product for your kitty..... let me just tell you. My cat is addicted. Absolutely stands by the treat door... knocks things off the counter until I go to the cabinet. Swats my legs as I walk by.... This item has absolutely created a monster. He LOVES them so much. I bought some of the other brands.. and they'll do ... for a little while. I'm not sure how many stars to give because he loves them so much and they are so good for him..... but they are causing me agony. I guess I need an extra large bag?????

My cat and dog both love these treats. I recommend taking the time to cut them in half or quarters before giving them to your cat as they are a bit large.

I have two cats and only one loved them! It was nice how it took him a few bites to finish the them. He went through the bag so fast! I ordered another bag and now he wants nothing to do with them. Not sure if something changed? Side note, dogs also love these treats.

It’s real chicken heart dehydrated. My cats just love it like crazy! Good company. Highly recommended.

Very affordable and my cat loves it

The product itself is fine, though there are hardly any pieces of heart for the price. Might be worth it for around 300 rupees and that would still be expensive -- just check with your local butcher

My cats go crazy for these! Healthy, single ingredient, and great for training just break bigger pieces.

I gave my 2 cats this for the first time last week. At first they were very sceptical of the treats as they’ve never had them before but both of them LOVED it after staring at it for a bit. I am going to cut each treat in 2 from now on though (there are not a lot in the packaging) to try to make them last longer. This is not a big deal at all considering how big the treats are. I WILL be purchasing this again.
