Hartz Delectables Chowder Lickable Wet Cat Treats for Senior Cats, Tuna & Whitefish, 1.4 Ounce (Pack of 12)(Packaging May Vary )

My cat loves this!
My cat is super picky and super spoiled! The delectables chowder is one of his favorites! The packaging is always perfect and the product seems to be fresh and consistent. So glad I found them as I usually buy four different types a week.

Word of Caution
My older cat loves this brand but hates the senior one, he likes the one with the flakes of fish, in fact all of them as long as they are fish. My youngest one eats anything. The problem is this is a treat, I even think it says it in the box, in other words it should not be their main source of food. The problem here is that he would only eat this every 10 minutes. You are probably thinking “well don’t give it to him”  Easier said than done, he is a very expressive talkative and did not stop crying until I gave it to him and even would bite my toes. Make the calculations every ten minutes at $1.20, not getting the nutrition that should get, and refusing to eat anything else. I decided I had to find food that he would like and would not have all the crap that most pet food contains and would not break the bank. I bought the most expensive cat food there is at $3 a can, and he still would smell it and walk away, Would I recommend these treats? Sure, just be aware they become addicted and would refuse anything else.

Picky eaters no problem
My cat at my equestrian center was adopted just over year ago. She is beyond picky with her food and treats. I’ve tried giving her cheap treats and food all the way to super expensive gourmet varieties. Almost all of those were complete waste as there’s very few things she’ll actually eat thus just flushed money down drain as she either wouldn’t touch or only ate what she wanted of it liquid, meat, etc. I have to give her a pretty specific diet so that she’s not wasteful.I’ve gotten a variety across the board of Hartz delectables including one flavor in each of the varieties (gravy, broth, stew, etc). She’s had zero issues with any of them and she begs for them as much as she can in day. She gets 1 to 2 of them in evening as they’re her reward for coming into barn for lockdown all on her own.She absolutely loves them and will pick them over the treats she likes every time. She has her dry food set up right by where she’s given these in separate bowl. She’ll eat all of this and then eat her dry food.What I found in the other canned/wet foods I attempted to give her is that she liked the “juice” over the actual meat in most. She does same thing with these by licking all liquids first then grabbing the shreds and little pieces of meat.These are the perfect size for a treat feeding or added happy food. There’s not a ton in each bag and there’s not some minuscule amount either. There’s no need for a can lid or refrigerator as they’re basically single serve baggies.Something to scrape out the contents of bag is necessary as some the meat will stay in bottom or get stuck to sides while dumping into bowl. I use a plastic knife to do this but the $1 icing applicator/scraper at dollar tree that’s a miniature silicone deign also would work great. I’ve tried rolling bag up to empty all out without scraping but it doesn’t work.Just wish better cost per unit so could give her how many she would like to have in day (1 to 2 in am and 1 to 2 in pm). But I’ve yet to find them.The box they come in doesn’t hold up too well. I apply duct tape to the bottom to give it some firmness and make it where just doesn’t fall apart. Rather than keeping in original boxes separated by flavor (way they come unless variety pack), I empty the boxes, strengthen with tape, put each flavor into a stack, and then set up the daily giving order so different flavor each time given. Once all gathered for a box they’re placed into one of their original boxes with tape.It’s also great to know that if and when another cat comes into my life that both kitten and senior versions available. As far as scent they’re horrendous and can smell it from far away when in trash or been open few hours.

My cats love this brand
And the chowders are no different. 🥰
