We have two cats who are addicted to treats.
Okay, we made them that way. We fed them Temptations for years, before we really took the time to read the labels and understand what the ingredients really were. That brand is about the same as flavored potato chips for humans flavor enhancers are added to make us crave the item. Temptations does the same for your cat. No wonder they didn't want to stop eating them!
Anyway, we were on the hunt for a healthier treat that wasn't full of kitty junk food.
Both our cats love chicken and could care less about tuna or fish flavors, so this was one of the items we tried.
The ingredients are top-notch, and the treat's size is really good for cats.
However, while both cats get excited about the bag being opened (like a can opener sound or popping the lid on wet cat food),
I could swear I hear them sigh when they see this bag! While they do eat these, it isn't a favorite by any means. Both will eat a few pieces then walk away, almost unheard of in all previous treat feeds of all brands. I can leave a few out and they'll get eaten, but it is probably out of boredom, not because they want them. One of our favorite games with both cats is tossing a treat for them to catch. They both love to do this, but are too bored to play catch with these treats. While I am glad that these do not contain the kitty version of MSG, it also needs to have something more appealing to the cats too.
There is enough chicken in this to make it a decent product for your cat. However, there also doesn't seem to be a lot of flavor, in their opinion. While I did not buy mine at Amazon, no matter where you shop, Halo treats are pretty costly, given what
they are little round pieces of cat food.
We won't be buying them again. For a few dollars more, we can get a 3-lb sack of very healthy cat food that we can use as treats instead. Right now, we are using Blue Buffalo cat food as their treat. They both adore it, it is full of healthy ingredients too (despite being more grains than I really think cats need), and you get a lot more value. We also use Eukanuba dry food as treats, and both of those brands are very popular with both of our cats.
So, while everyone's cats have different likes/dislikes just like we humans do, I'd put my money into some other brand.
If this one came way down in price, then it would be an okay value as an extra treat.
But, for the premium pricing on a bag of treats, you can do just as well by your cat with other brands.
There is nothing really special about these, and don't have either the flavor or fragrance to get our cats too excited about them.
I think we were all a little disappointed with the Halo chicken treats.
