Living it Up -- Kitty Style With Liv A Little Treats by Halo

My gang of five likes treats... they all run into the kitchen every time I walk into it looking for goodies.  This month I could not resist trying Liv A Littles Whole Chicken Breast treats...from chewy.com and, I am glad I choose these high protein treats to review, so is my gang of five...they love them!

My Tonkinese cats are sniffers and they seem to know when something good has shown up at the door... and Liv a Little didn't disappoint.  The first thing I noticed about these treats is that they smelled really good and looked even better, this is because they are freeze dried and not dehydrated.  The freeze drying process helps them to retain a good wholesome color, great smell, and texture.


The second thing I noticed was their size, the container was packed full of large chunks of white chicken breast meat.  There isn't anything wrong with small treats but, it seems that half the fun of having Love A Little treats for Sabu is trying to fish them out with his paw adding an element of fun to deliciousness!


Benefits of Freeze Drying

Liv A Littles Whole Chicken Breast are made by  US company, Halo, Purely for Pets whose goal is to be transparent about what is in the pet food they make and where the ingredients come from.  I like the fact that this treat is freeze-dried as opposed to dehydrated because it helps to lock in the whole chicken nutrition, aroma, and taste. 

The process of freeze-drying uses a vacuum to remove moisture from frozen meat without thawing it, similar to the process for preparing raw food. The protein doesn't shrink or toughen during the freeze, which makes it enjoyable to eat. Plus, it doesn't contain additives that dehydrated food does, and it retains its original nutrients, while dehydrated food loses up to 50%.




Healthy Highlights

For over 30 years, Halo has insisted on creating only holistic pet foods that rely on whole meat, poultry or fish and never any rendered meat meal. This is the fundamental difference that sets them apart as a premium pet food brand.There are several key reasons why to try Liv A Little Chicken treats for your dog or cat and chewy.com makes ordering them easy.

  • Pieces of freeze-dried white meat chicken breast made in the US.  
  • No meat meal of any kind is used in this product.
  • Grain-free perfect for pets with a sensitive stomach
  • All natural, single protein treat that is low in calories, a real plus for indoor felines. 
  • Simple wholesome ingredients: chicken, water, sodium phosphate, salt, and carrageenan.
  • Serve as a high-quality special treat or crumbled them in food at mealtime for added incentive.
  • Packaged in an easily stored 2.2-ounce  hard plastic container that keeps the product fresh. 
  • Best of all my cats love them and I think they would eat the entire container at one sitting if left to their own devices!
  • Good to the last drop, with the small amount of chicken "dust"  at the bottom of the container I sprinkled it on their wet food for a special treat and they went wild!

It's Just Yummy!

My gang of five and I are not the only ones that think that Halo's Liv A Littles Chicken Breast Treats are good, out of 478 reviews on chewy.com this product had 4.5 out of five stars with 78% of reviewers giving it 5 stars, 9% giving it four stars and 4% giving it three.
