Pure Taste

Published on by Service Cats U.S.25 Comments

OMC Da year 2015 is almost over. Me can’t hardly believe it. So much has happened this past year, most of it good. And one of those things is dat we became part of da Chewy Blogging Furmily. We luv Chewy. We told ya’ when we started bloggin’ fur ‘em dat we had been shoppin’ there fur quite sum time, and we still do. Those of ya’ dat be a little older will member da sayin’ “Da customer is always right”. Unfurtunately lots of businesses have furgotten this, but not Chewy. Chewy has pawsum customer service peeps and they still believe da customer’s always right. Ifin you haven’t guessed, it’s time fur our last Chewy review of da year. So let’s get on with it.

Dezi rubs the package of Canidae pure treats

 

 

Dezi rubs the package of Canidae Pure treats

We received a package of da Canidae Grain Free Pure Taste Treats. Mommy chose da game bird recipe fur us to try cuz we kinda like da duck, goose, quail and such. These treats are made with limited ingredients. Da ingredient list fur our treats is: duck, turkey meal, quail meal, peas, potatoes, canola oil, sweet potatoes, natural flavors and mixed tocopherals (a source of vitamin E). They’re little heart shaped kibbles fur just da right size kitty bite. They come in a 3 oz packet and are available in 4 flavors, chicken, salmon, trout and da game bird recipe dat we got. So what did we think ‘bout ‘em you ask?

Dezi sniffs the bag of Canidae Pure treats

Me ate 3 pieces da minute mommy opened da package. So she got out a few more pieces fur me, to which me purromptly turned up meez nose at. Sis Lexi munched down on quite a few pieces afur walkin’ away. A few days later mommy offered them to me again. Me sniffed at them and turned up meez nose yet again. Sissy gobbled them down again and again. So me has to give these treats 3 paws down. Me gives them one paw up cuz sissy likes ‘em and me luvs anythin’ dat sissy will eat. Me must tell ya’ dat since changin’ meez noms from kibble and canned to fureeze dried raw and canned, these have been da furst kibbley bites mommy has offered to me. And altho’ these treats be good quality mommy was impurressed dat me didn’t want ‘em.

Dezi tries a Canidae Pure treat

Well you might not have liked ‘em Dezi but I fawt they waz grayt. As a lot of ya’ know I don’t have a lot of teefies left, and these little bite size treats are small enuff fur minez few teef to krunch ‘em up afur swallowin’. And I luv, luv, luv me sum duck. So I give them 4 paws up. 

Lexi smells the Canidae Pure treats in mommy's hand

Meez so glad you like ‘em sissy. So what did mommy think? Well she was very happy dat protein in da furm of a meat was da furst ingredient but wuld have spected no less from Canidae. Because of meez recent bout with da cystits, mommy wasn’t so happy ‘bout all da starch; not one type of potato but 2 are listed. And as ya’ know starch turns to sugar in da body and taxes da liver and kidneys. But as a treat dat gets fed in small purrtions and only occasionally she gave them a fumm up. Also cuz sis Lexi wuld eat them and findin’ things she likes these days gets harder and harder. So there ya’ have it, 1 fumm and 5 paws up fur da Canidae Grain Free Pure Taste cat treats.

As with all our Chewy reviews we got no money fur this review but did receive da treats to try fur furee. And we only bring ya’ things we think you might be innerested in dat we use or have tried ourselves. And we always tell ya’ like it is, good, bad or otherwise.

Meownin’ sissy. Is it time to wake up mommy yet? (Dezi stretches and yawns)

   It’z Christmas Dezi. It’z fur shur time to wake up mommy.  (Lexi stretches out her arm    and pats mommy on the leg with her dainty paw) 

Christmas? Oh sissy me luvs Christmas. (Dezi stands totally awake and walks onto mommy’s chest and starts massaging and purring. Then she starts swooshing her fluffy tail back and forth over mommys face)

    (Mommy slowly opens her eyes and speaks) Good morning girls. Merry Christmas.      I love you both sooooooo much. I’m the blestest mommy in the universe. (Dez continues    to swoosh her fluffy tail)  Dezi, please stop swooshin’ I’d rather not have a mouth full     of fur this morning. (Dezi stops swooshing and crawls off mommy’s checst and settles   in to massage her arms and legs while Lexi gets the wheelchair positioned)

Oh meowllo everypawdy and Merry Christmas to you all. By now most of you have started celebrating with your own traditions. We thought today we would share our Christmas traditions with you. And afur me furgets, weez joinin da Pet Parade as we do every weekend. Our meownin’ starts out just like any other day, but soon da traditions will begin. After we all get around and sissy and me have our breakfast and mommy has a cup of coffee or two we settle in to start our celebrations. Mommy usually tells da story but today she sed I kuld. So pull up a chair and grab you sum coffee or your drink of choice.

Open da Bible to da story mommy, you know da one ‘bout God luvvin’ us so much dat He gave His only Son so dat whoever believed in Him kuld have eternal life. John 3:16 (paraphrased) And then da one ‘bout how Jesus got here.

So, a long time ago in a place very far away, lived a girl and her betrothed. Dat’s a fiance` in case you was wunnerin’. Well peeps had kind of lost site of God and doin’ right. But God knew all was not lost and decided to send His only Son to earth to save us all from sin and hell. The very furst Christmas purresent was born, literally. Happy Birffday Jesus. But Jesus isn’t just fur Christmas, He’s fur da whole year fru. Jesus was born in a lowly stable full of anipals. Da furmily didn’t have much, but they had lots and lots of luv. And so long as you have luv and God in your life, you can make it fru anyfin’. We are so blest cuz we have each other and now all our furiends from all round da world cuz of da innernets. 

 

So after mommy tells us da story, we sing lots of carols and songs together. And then we settle in to purray and thank God fur all da blessings in our lives and His gift to da world. And then we’ll be openin’ up all those pawsum purresents we got. And as we open each one we’ll say a little purrayer askin’ God to bless them fur includin’ us. And then we’ll all snuggle together and take a little nap. Da day will be over afur we know it, but next year when it comes around again, you’ll find us doin’ da very same thing. There’s nuffin’ wrong with a little tradition.
