If You Are a Cat, This Post Will Make You Really, Really Hungry!

July 29, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat26 Comments

I got a package in the mail and was thrilled when I saw the return address!

I knew it was certainly what I wanted!

My human had ordered some Grandma Lucy’s freeze-dried treats from Nip and Bones! That’s the store that belongs to my friend, Baby Patches. Oh yeah, and her human.

Heaven in a plastic jar. Make that TWO plastic jars.

I waited impatiently for my human to open it. She seemed to think it was more important to take photographs than let us have the treats. Sometimes her thinking is really warped.

Can you tell I was getting really annoyed?

The liver treats looked crumbly, which meant they would be good to sprinkle on my food, but maybe not too good for the rug, so my human opened up the lamb treats. I decided to help myself.

Aren't these the tastiest things you've ever seen?

I confess I got a little out of control.

I could eat this whole jar! In fact, can I have them instead of a can of cat food?

The great thing about Grandma Lucy’s treats is that they are made out of freezed-dried meat without any of that junky stuff you find in most brands of cat treats. The only downside is that they tend to draw a crowd.

I guess this means I have to share.

There is one problem with the packaging, though — some humans think that the little cloth covers are cat bonnets. They are not.

Grandma Lucy - please don't put those covers on anymore!

    Those do look yummy! We want to try them so bad and we’ve been trying to get Mommy to buy us some but she’s afraid of Isabella choking on them or something crazy like that because she doesn’t chew her food, she just swallows it. I have a solution, Isabella doesn’t need to eat any – I’ll eat them all!

    Oh those sound yummy! We have had freeze dried chicken before but never lamb or liver – you are so lucky! But we do think that they need to not include a “cat bonnet” with each one – we can see our mom trying to put it on us or something!

    Those treats sound wonderful and it must be great to have it sprinkled on your regular foods as well…Even though you might find the bonnet irritating, Sparkle, you are adorable, sweet girl!!…xoxo…Calle, Halle, Sukki

    We love Grandma Lucy’s freeze dried treats. Yes, the liver is very crumbly. We like the lamb a lot. Please tell your Mom not to give our Mom any ideas about making hats from the packaging.

    This reminds me of the Yugoslavian restaurant I waited tables at in high school. The seniors would come in Wednesday afternoons and order liver and onions. Gawd, I hated Wednesday afternoons–old people smell mixed with liver and onions smell. Makes cat pee smell good!

    Thanks for the tip! Our cats love treats, but it scares me to think of what are in some so I try to be extra careful what I choose. These look like a definite must try 🙂

    They look yummy! We’ve never had freeze dried treats, wonder if we’d like them? We bet they smell delicious. Even our human is hungry now…though not for freeze-dried liver or lamb. LOL.

    I don’t know if I would like those treats or not. My mom has tried some freeze dried stuff, but I turned up my nose to it.

    We think your bonnet is really cute sparkle. LOL, But we are sure going to check out those treats and get our assistant to get some of them for us. It looks like all of you really like them.
    Thanks for the info.
    Have a great day.

    Sparkle, we were gonna have our mom order those for us. Then we saw those jar covers and we knew they would end up on us like they did on you. So we changed our minds….

    Mmmmmmmmm that DOES make me hungry! We would love to get some but not sure if they would meet our custom laws (they destroyed some lovely nip mice already – booo)

    Nom, nom, nom! Our favorite treats, ever. We have not tried the lamb ones yet. Sometimes we get the crumbs from the bottom of the liver treats sprinkled on our foods!

    Oh Sparkle! Is your ‘snack fest’ sort of like the human equivalent of partying and ending up wearing a lampshade on your head? Sorry, but we had to laugh at that last photo!! We’re going to send Momma over to Nip and Bones though….since her Grandma was named Lucy I think she needs to get us some of those snacks!!!
