TIKI PETS Cat Thrive Kitten Chicken Leater 5.3oz, 8 Count

I got these for my 3 (almost 4) month old furbaby after her spay when she wasn’t eating. I had tried almost everything and she was losing weight fast - I was desperate for anything to stick. She wasn’t taking to her pate after intubation because her throat was sore. Pate would make her cough so hard to the point of gagging so she had an aversion to it. I tried different complete wet foods/textures for kittens but she would only have a couple licks and walk away, rather weakly. Calories/nutrition were necessary in small amounts so these gave me hope (if she ate it). Let me tell you, these were a life saver! This was one of the only things she would reliably eat, even more than churu. The smooth texture was perfect for her (she did still cough a little but everything made the poor baby cough during her healing) and the portion was great because she didn’t want too much during that time because of her throat. The smell isn’t as potent as her food (still not the greatest for humans) but she seems to like it. Luckily it doesn’t last long on her plate so I don’t have any issues with its scent. During the week I needed to get her as much food as possible, I was feeding this 3-4 times a day along with other options (she preferred kibble). Within that week she started plumping up beautifully (back to normal) and looked forward to her servings. This didn’t give her any issues with defecating even though it was a big part of her diet and new, for that matter. Now that she’s eating normally, I do still like to give her 1 a day just in case she’s lacking any calories since she’s still just a baby - these are a great addition/treat for her now and I can switch between these and churu (she’s now back to loving those too). She did prefer it on my finger for a bit but now has no problem with a dish. It is rather oily when using finger but the baby gets what she wants! Not sure I can rate the value for money because her health is invaluable. It’s way cheaper than constant vet visits (which I had) for not eating so I will continue to purchase this until she’s over it because it brought her back from a really hard time. She doesn’t need as many now, but for once in a while it doesn’t seem too bad. I spent a lot of money and have a lot of food that she (still) wont eat so that hits harder on my wallet than these. Would recommend to try if you have a baby that is having any problem eating!

So worth the money, saved my baby cat’s life. Helped with gaining weight and she would devour the whole packet each time. All around great product for small frail babies kittens

25 calories in a tiny amount of irresistible food! Tiki Cat’s Baby Thrive has literally been a life saver for my tiny malnourished kitten born with a congenital birth defect. My Trixie was born with a ligament wrapped tightly around her eaophagus, meaning she could only swallow liquid food until she gained enough weight for a surgical correction. Trixie would often tire of her liquid food that came in only one flavor. She never turned down a packet of Baby Thrive. While she also liked Churu treats, they only have six calories. Baby Thrive gave us so much more ‘bang for the buck’ so-to-speak’. Trixie’s mother was very sick when her kittens were nursing so all three seemed healthy underweight. Even though her two sibs could eat normally, they begged for packets as well. So, all three kittens enjoyed this daily treat. The three are now 11 months old and doing well but, I still continue to buy Baby Thrive for them because they are still in the small side and, I believe this gives them a great boost of nutrition and will get Trixie eating when nothing else will!

I purchased this for my kitten that I rescued that was not growing. She absolutely loves the taste and has gained weight. This is a great product!

We have an older cat that has become finicky. She loves this food and eats it right up. Not a ton in each pouch but works. Note Tiki cat also has a cat food puree in bigger pouches. Our cat likes those but still likes this better. We use this as a topper.
