[They Seriously Devoured It] 3 Cat Treats My Cats Loved Besides Churu

Many people probably think of Inaba's "CIAO Churu" when it comes to cat treats that cats really go for. So, this time, I've arbitrarily set a restriction of "no Churu" and will introduce three treats that my cats really loved. These are real reviews, not sponsored content, so I hope they're helpful.

Mamakuku's "Freeze-Dried Chicken Fillet Granules"

Mamakuku's cat treats feel as beloved by cats as "Churu." Mamakuku is known for its treats that let you enjoy the natural flavor of the ingredients, and their freeze-dried chicken fillet is especially popular, isn't it?

Those are also incredibly popular, but as someone who's clumsy, I often spill them when breaking them apart or make my cat wait, which has always been frustrating for me.

That's when I found the freeze-dried chicken fillet in granular form. Personally, these are incredibly easy to give, and I've repurchased them many times.

It's perfectly fine to give them as is, but my cat, Gigi, who has no teeth, finds it a bit difficult to eat them that way. So, I crush them with my fingers and sprinkle them over her dry food.

Crushing them requires a bit of force, but this way, even senior cats or highly senior cats without teeth can enjoy them. It's also helpful when they've lost their appetite or seem to be tired of their food, as this little extra effort makes them more likely to eat.

As temperatures rise, appetite can sometimes decrease, so it's reassuring to always have these on hand for days when you want them to eat well. Although, once they know how delicious it is, they might start targeting the chicken fillet on the dining table...

By the way, Mamakuku's "Freeze-Dried Tuna" is also dearly loved in our household.

These are cube-shaped, but just like the freeze-dried chicken fillet (granular type), you can crush them with your fingers. Just recall any irritating incidents and crush them with a powerful "Hmph!"

My sister taught them the deliciousness of "Gin no Spoon NyanSpoon"

The moment they hear the sound of the package opening, my cats rush over at top speed. They absolutely love "Gin no Spoon NyanSpoon." The shape of this treat is simply divine.

Sometimes, with treats in these kinds of containers, cats have trouble licking up the last bit. But these seem easy to eat, and my cats always lick them clean to the very end, which makes me, as the owner, feel satisfied with giving them.

In my household, it's the same as with "Churu": if each cat gets one, their stools become loose, so the three cats share one. My cats always have sparkling eyes, wondering when it will be their turn.

I'm happy that this treat offers various types, such as one for kidney health maintenance, one for hairball care, and an additive-free type, allowing owners to choose according to their cat's condition and their own preferences.

If they're accustomed to eating it regularly, I think you can also rely on the "complete nutrition type" of this product when they've lost their appetite or are recovering from an illness.

Also, the paw print design on the handle is just adorable. I always find myself holding it firmly, thinking, "I wish I could put this paw print on my finger..."

The incredible appeal of nyans' "Matatabi Mafia Matatabi"

Nyans is a company I'm constantly indebted to. But I'm not introducing it just for that reason; I genuinely find their catnip to be incredibly appealing and something I want to recommend to everyone.

First of all, the packaging is adorable. If all mafias were like this, I'd want to meet them again and again, and I'd even spoil them as much as I could. The matatabi in the cigarette he's holding, is it too strong? Is he okay? I can't help but worry.

Nyans' matatabi uses domestically harvested matatabi, so it has a rich aroma, meaning cats are more attracted to it. My cats, Gigi and Kotaro, especially love matatabi, so when I feel they're "stressed out lately," I sprinkle it on their usual cat food.

However, there's one scary thing: Gigi's wild behavior when faced with matatabi. Normally, she's docile, but when she smells matatabi, her behavior completely changes—she'll scratch with her claws or playfully bite with her gums (since she has no teeth).

At times like this, she won't yield to other cats and goes straight for it first, making me jealous of how much the matatabi is loved. In my next life, I want to be matatabi...

Hoping for "next-generation treats" that cats can hunt and eat

With various new cat treats constantly appearing, what I'm looking forward to in the future are treats that cats can hunt and eat. Feline animals originally gained satisfaction from hunting and catching their prey.

So, while receiving food from someone else is certainly appreciated, I believe that food they've obtained with their own paws holds significant meaning for cats.

I believe that this goes beyond the pleasure of eating and can contribute to a sense of purpose and emotional stability. Therefore, I hope for the emergence of treats that can be enjoyed after engaging in play that simulates hunting.

I'm a passive person, hoping that smart cat lovers and companies will one day develop such treats and change cat nutrition for the better.

Eating is living. Since that's true for both humans and cats, it would be great if they could enjoy exciting meal times.

Also, treats that can be shared with my beloved cats are more than welcome. I hope a future where we can deepen our bond with our cats by sharing meals comes true.
