Da Honest Kitchen Wishes are 100% Icelandic haddock fillets fur cats and dogs. Yep, da really pawsum thing ‘bout these freeze dried and dehydrated treats is dat most of them are good fur both cats and dogs. So ifin you have a mixed household ya’ don’t have to buy separate treats or worry ‘bout Fluffy eatin’ Fidos’ treats, etc..

 Raena peaking out of a chewy box

       Who’s Fluffy and Fido, sissy? 

Raena, not yet. Those are just general names fur a cat and dog.

       Really sissy? We don’t know not one Fluffy or Fido.

 Honest Kitchen Wishes

Raena, knock it off. Ask those kinds of questions later. We’re postin’ our review. Anyways, let’s see what Chewy’s website has to say ‘bout The Honest Kitchen Wishes treats.

Key Benefits

  • Gourmet treats suitable for both cats and dogs

  • Made with just one pristine ingredient, great for pets with allergies

  • No fillers, by- products or GMO ingredients

  • Grain-free & Gluten-free makes it perfect for pets with sensitive stomachs

  • Made in a human food facility with 100% human-grade ingredients in the USA!

Now as they state there’s only one ingredient and dat is Haddock from Iceland. Iceland must have da lock on fishies cuz The Honest Kitchen has other treats from Iceland as well. But we tried da haddock, so let’s get on with da tastin’ and testin’.

 The Honest Kitchen Wishes treats

Furst me must tell ya’ dat they look kinda like a graham cracker. They’re these fairly large thick wafers. Mommy says they are easily broken into smaller pieces which is a good thing cuz you all know me’s delicate little mouthy likes small bites. Raena’s gonna be just like me, so mommy went ‘bout breakin’ up a fillet. (Takes a bite and starts to chew) Mmmm well, it tastes purretty good. It’s really fish strong, but it is a fish fillet after all. Dat bein’ said, me wouldn’t mind a bite or two every now and then, but this isn’t gonna be one of me favorites. It’s a little on da extra dry side and actually stuck to me’s tongue. check it out.

       They didn’t stick to mines tongue sissy. They wasn’t foolin’ me with dat fishy smell. I’s didn’t want to try it at all. Mommy must have chased me ‘round da house fur an hour with dat fillet in her hand. Hmmpht Didn’t she see da snub I’s had already given it? I’s picked up a piece with mines teefies and didn’t like what It felt like so I’s spit it right back out. Maybe ifin it had been shaved or somethin’. I’s don’t know, I just know I’s didn’t like it. I’s can give it a paw up fur only havin’ da one ingredient, and bein’ good fur both cats and dogs, but dat’s it.

 Raena refuses treats

Well Raena dat’s good enuff. Fanks. Me did think mommy looked funny chasin’ you ‘round and hollerin’, “Raena, c’mon, just try it. Raena, slow down. Come here and just try this yummy treat.” You know me doesn’t recall seein’ her try it at all, so how’s she ‘posed to know it’s yummy? Anyways, me gives The Honest Kitchen Wishes one paw up as well fur da one quality ingredient and bein’ good fur multi pet households. Mommy said she gave it a thumb up fur da same reasons. So, ifin you luv fish as much as da Tabbies, then you’ll purrobably luv these or one of da other pawsum treats you can find at Chewy.

 Raena refusing treats

Now ifin like us, ya’ don’t eat a lot of fish, don’t worry, Chewy has somethin’ fur everyone. And always speedy, free shippin’ on all orders of $49.00 or more and a flat rate of $4.95 fur all other orders. You can save a little extra by settin’ up an auto ship so you never run out of your anipals faves, and don’t worry, you can skip, cancel or delay anytime. We hear a lot of peeps say they wish they could only buy a few cans of somethin’ cuz they’re not sure their kitty or doggy will like it. Well you can shop Chewy with confidence, they have da bestest Customer Service online.

Blest Sunday Remember the Rescues

Meowllo and welcome to chaplain Dezi’s Blest Sunday. So we did some more meowin’ and talkin’ this week and decided dat Wednesdays and Furidays are just gonna stay Surprise/Toss up days. You’re not gonna know what you’ll see here till ya’ come by. MOL  Anyways, let’s get on with today. Furst we wanna thank whoever sent mommy da colorin’ page. She luvved it. Raena and me think she must have used every color they make fur dat kitty face. It stormed and raged all day yesfurday and was da purrfect thing to keep mommys’ mind busy since we couldn’t be on da catputer. Da thunder boomers seemed to get louder and more furequent last night, but me never hid out. Me did want a lot of extra luvvin’ from mommy, which she was more than happy to give. Me is so blest to have such a luvvin’ mommy.

Cat face coloring page

 Mommy said Fank you fur da colorin’ page.

 

       Me too sissy. I’s not ‘fraid of da storms but they was sooooo loud last night dat even I’s got a little nervous. Even da rain seemed louder than normal. Fankfully mommy has room fur both of us on her lap. 

Oh Raena, what do you know ‘bout normal soundin’ rain? You’ve only been alive fur 5 months.

 Raena sitting in mommys lap

       Maybe sissy, but it’s rained a lot durin’ those 5 months.

You’re right Raena, it has rained a lot this summer. And now they say it’s fall. We even got a cold front move in this weekend. Not dat we felt it in da house. Fank catness fur air conditionin’ and fans. We wanted to show you a foto dat made mommy burst out laffin’. It’s blurry and da red eye taker outer didn’t take out all da red eye like it’s posed to, but we think most of ya’ will get a real chuckle lookin’ at it. Raena and me had been in da pawdee box room playin’ when we suddenly heard a sonic boom. Those happen a lot ‘round here, but we all still jump a little. Yep, even mommy. Anyways, Raena and me heard da sonic boom and well it caused us to immediately stop playin’ and meow out to mommy. Mommy knew we were together and so when we both called out to her, she got “nervous” and jumped up to come see what was goin’ on. And this foto shows what she saw when she got to da hallway. Fankfully she has long arms and could reach da camera, cuz once she appeared in da hallway and stopped, we came runnin’.

 Dezi and Raena sitting outside bathroom looking surprised.

       Well sissy she was laffin’ at us. I’s didn’t know what was so funny, but she laffed till she had water streamin’ down her face.

Yeah Raena, mommies can be emotional, specially ours.

 Raena sleeping in mommys lap

       Is dat why she luvs us so much sissy, cuz she’s emotional?

No Raena she luvs us just cuz. And cuz she’s emotional she shows us how much she luvs us all da time. We are really blest kitties to have a furever home and furever mommy dat luvs us so much. We have lots of amazin’ furiends dat we share our lives with and so much more. You know not all kitties have dat. This past week there was a day set aside to ‘member all those dat never make it outta shelters and into luvvin’ furever homes. They die never havin’ known luv and da warmth of a mommy or daddy holdin’ them tight and purromissin’ them dat they’ll never be alone again.

       Oh sissy, I’s not like to think ‘bout those things.

Yeah Raena, a lot of peeps don’t like to think ‘bout those kinds of things. But not thinkin’ ‘bout it doesn’t make it go away. Until we get everypawdy to think ‘bout it and make changes, kitties and doggies will continue to die scared and alone. We try to educate as many peeps as we can. And every day we purray fur all our furiends and all those less furtunate than us. And hopefully someday we won’t need shelters. Maybe someday, all anipals will have their own luvvin’ furever.

 Raena sleeping in mommys lap

       I’s sure hope so sissy. I’s think #RemeberMeThursday should be everyday till da whole world gets da message.

Yeah Raena me wishes da world would get da message too. Spay and neuter your pets, strays and feral colonies to help cut down on over-pawpulation and over crowded shelters. Children can witness the magic of birth by rentin’ a video. Educate, educate, educate. Havin’ babies doesn’t make a kitty calmer, more well adjusted or happier. Instead it increases da risk of health issues, cancers, spraying, behavioral purroblems and early deaths. We get so tired of hearin’ “I already have homes for the kittens.” Well ifin you don’t spay or neuter, da homes you found purrobably don’t either and someday those kittens will be havin’ babies too. And on and on and on. (Dezi wipes a tear from her eye and shakes and bows her head for a moment of silence) Well we better get outta here befur it starts stormin’ again.

 Dezi lays in lap and takes a selfie

We’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. ‘Member to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur da blessings in your life. Fank you all fur your luv and support. We are so blest to know all of you. Hope you have a pawsumly blest day.

Friday Hijack

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. It’s Toss Up/Surprise Furiday and sis Dezi said I’s could take da lead. Isn’t she just da bestest sissy ever? …What’s dat mommy? She didn’t actually say I’s could take da lead? She was tryin’ to tell me to leave her alone so she could eat? Well isn’t dat da same thing? Ifin she’s eatin’ she obviously can’t be here to blog right? …It isn’t da same thing? Well it should be. And who cares, I’s here now and she isn’t. MOL  So anyways, I’s takin’ da lead today.

 Raena laying across pounce tou

It’s been kinda crazy ‘round here this week. Mommy’s had to clean up all da mold from da a/c leak dat still isn’t fixed. Seems da maintenance man didn’t show up this week cuz he worked 3 days last week and dat was 2 more than he wants to work. Da office be closed today, so you know what mommy’ll be doin’ Monday, don’cha’? I’s wouldn’t wanna be da manager dat’s fur sure. You’ll get a clue why Service Cat Monday. Anyways, not sure how much more there is to clean and dry, but it’s lots of fun fur me. Things strewn everywhere…it’s like a kitty playground. Altho’ not sure dat’s what mommy intended. She sure does a lot of hissin’ at me. 

       RAENABELLE MAYCEE!!!!! 

Wooooooops Gotta go eat mines brekky now. See ya’ in a minute. 

 Dezi atop the Liberty cat tree

       Raena, ya’ can’t just hijack da bloggy anytime you want. What ifin me had somethin’ special planned fur today?

Well did ya’ sissy?

       Well, No. But dat’s not da point. It’s me’s bloggy, me was here furst, and me’s da elder cat and Queen of da house.

 Raena laying on the pounce toy

Well sissy, I’s didn’t wanna say anythin’ but since ya’ brought it up… You have been lookin’ a little tired lately. And ya’ might wanna ask mommy ‘bout her beauty tricks fur getting’ rid of those bags unner your eyes.

       RaenaBelle!!! Furstly, dat’s not very nice. But more purrtantly, me’s a cat. Me doesn’t get bags under me’s eyes. And ifin me’s tired, dat would be your fault fur not lettin’ me nap. Didn’t you get da memo? Kittens, dat’s you, are ‘posed to sleep ‘tween 16 – 18 hours a day. 

Oh Catness sissy, I’s might miss somethin’. 

 Dezi laying on the liberty cat tree

       Trust me Raena, you ain’t gonna miss anythin’. We live ‘round a bunch of old folks like mommy. Da most excitement dat happens ‘round here is when da ambulance pulls in and everypawdy’s tryin’ to figger out who it’s fur.

Is dat da noisy thing with all da fun colored lights?

 Pet Parade banner new

       Yes Raena, it’s da noisy thing with all da lights. And me knows, you really like it. Anyways, we’s gotta go finish our brekky. You know what mommy says, “no treats unless you eat all your meal.” But befur we go, we’s joinin’ up with Rascal and Rocco and their pawsum co-hosts fur da weekly Pet Parade. Tell everypawdy bye Raena.

See ya’ll later…or sooner ifin I’s can hijack da bloggy again.

 Dezi and Raena in a tiled frame

Duck Duck Goose #ChewyInfluencer

Meowllo everypawdy. As ya’ know we’s been re-workin’ our days and postys here. We now have Service Cats Monday, Chaplain Dezi’s Blest Sunday’s, and then nuffin’. We also regularly write postys on Wednesdays and Furidays, but we don’t have a name to give ‘em yet. And why is dat? Well cuz we do write reviews, but not enuff to give them their own day each week. And we write update posty’s and VET postys, but fankfullly not nearly enuff to even give them a day a month. Raena would Amen dat, big time. So fur now you’re just gonna get a toss up Wednesday and Furiday till we figger it all out. And today’s gonna be one of those reviews.

 Dezi sits in a chewy box

As most of ya’ know we’re Chewy Influencers and they send us a couple purroducts every month to try out and tell you all ‘bout. Well when we got our box this month we couldn’t wait to jump right in. Some of you may ‘member me’s little health scare a little over a year ago and da subsequent nom changes mommy made ‘round here. She’d like me and Raena to be eatin’ a totally raw diet, but me’s just not ready fur dat yet, so we’s eat da next bestest thing, freeze dried raw.

 Stella and Chewy's Duck duck gose freeze dried cat food

So when mommy opened da box and we saw a bag of Stella and Chewy’s Duck, Duck, Goose freeze dried cat food, we thought it was dinner time. Furst let me tell ya’ a little ‘bout da freeze dryin’ purrocess. Freeze dryin’ locks in vital proteins, vitamins, minerals, natural enzymes and amino acids dat us kitties need. It also locks in da flavor so dat it still tastes furesh. Let’s see what da Chewy website says ‘bout Stella and Chewy’s freeze dried cat food. 

Key Benefits

  • Suitable for all stages of life

  • Includes parsley for added vitamin K

  • Naturally preserved with mixed tocopherols

  • Pumpkin seed aids in digestion

  • Grain-free & Gluten-free formula reduces allergic reactions

  • Made in the USA!

Here’s da ingredient list fur da Duck, Duck Goose dinner: 

 

Duck (Ground with Bone), Turkey, Turkey Liver, Goose, Turkey Gizzard, Pumpkin Seed, Potassium Chloride, Sodium Phosphate Monobasic, Choline Chloride, Dried Pediococcus Acidilactici Fermentation Product, Dried Lactobacillus Acidophilus Fermentation Product, Dried Bifidobacterium Longum Fermentation Product, Dried Enterococcus Faecium Fermentation Product, Taurine, Tocopherols (Preservative), Zinc Proteinate, Zinc Sulfate, Iron Sulfate, Iron Proteinate, Vitamin E Supplement, Niacin, Copper Sulfate, Copper Proteinate, Riboflavin, Manganese Sulfate, Sodium Selenite, Manganese Proteinate, Thiamine Monnitrate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Folic Acid, Calcium Iodate, Vitamin B12 Supplement.

Well we don’t see any of those questionable ingredients dat so many worry ‘bout and avoid. And maybe a couple little known facts ’bout an ingredient or two. Did you know dat parsley also helps with bad breath? And punkin’ seeds are pawrt of a natural de-wormer. Me knows all ’bout dat one cuz mommy used it with me when me was a baby. Anyways, da noms also come in several flavors and a doggy furmula too. And they recently started makin’ it available in several sizes. We received da 9 ounce bag, but it’s also available in a 3.5 oz. 12 oz. and 18 oz. bag dat we have on auto ship. Purrice ranges from $8.99 to $35.99 and this is a complete and balanced meal fur all life stages. So let’s get to da tastin’ and testin’.

 Bowl of Stella and Chewy's duck duck goose freeze dried nuggetsStraight outta da bag, no water added.

As you know, we always tell da truth, so dat bein’ said, we already eat Stella and Chewy’s Duck, Duck, Goose freeze dried dinner on a regular basis. It can be fed straight outta da bag, da way we like it, or with added water or broth. Da little nuggets are soft and mommy says there’s a small bone in each peace almost. She knows dat cuz she has to break each piece in half fur me. Yes, we are entirely too spoiled. But mommy says she wouldn’t have it any other way. Anyways, me luvs Stella and Chewy’s Duck, Duck, Goose. Sometimes me will pick it outta da plate and eat it furst. So me gives it a full four paws up.

 Dezi eating freeze dried noms

(Dezi yells over her shoulder) Raena!!! Do you wanna tell everypawdy what you think ‘bout da noms? 

      

       (Raena running down the hall)  Yes Sissy, fank you. I’s was in da pawdee box. Oh Catness, we’s already here. Ya’ll just ignore dat furst pawrt. (stretches paws and claws and clears throat) Well I’s luv da duck, duck, goose noms. I’s always pick ‘em outta da plate and eat those nuggets furst. They fur sure get a 4 paws up from me. And me luvs how mommy calls us to dinner. She says, “Come on girls it’s time for some duck, duck, gooooooooose.” 

 Raena eating freeze dried cat food

Yeah Raena, mommy can be silly sometimes can’t she?. And speakin’ of mommy, let’s ask her what she thinks ‘bout da Stella and Chewy’s Duck, Duck, Goose noms. 

 Raena peaking out of a chewy box

 

  Thank you girls. I like that it’s nutritious, good for you, doesn’t contain a lot of questionable ingredients, is made here in the USA, and most of all that ya’ll like it. The morsels are very soft and therefore we often get a bag that has a lot of crushed pieces that look a bit like sawdust. Altho’ this would be fine for kitties who eat it with water or broth mixed in (would mix up much like a pate’ food), it means waste for us. Since ya’ll won’t eat it with water or broth we need the nuggets to be intact. Thankfully, Chewy has amazing Customer Service and always makes it right. So I give Stella and Chewy’s Duck, Duck, Goose dinner 2 thumbs up. I would like to mention that there has been some talk about Stella and Chewy recalls. I did some research on this and found only a few recalls and that Stella and Chewy’s voluntarily issued those. I feel completely safe giving this food to you girls. 

 

Fanks mommy. So there ya’ have it, 8 paws total and 2 fumms up fur Stella and Chewy’s Duck, Duck, Goose and Chewy’s Customer Service Team. Now me knows you wanna get your own bag, so head over and check it out. And while you’re there, have a look around. Chewy carries lots of pawsum purroducts fur your furry and non furry furmily members. And you can save a few dollars by settin’ up an auto ship so you never run outta your bestest furiends supplies again. Chewy offers speedy furee shippin’ on all orders of $49.00 or more and a flat rate of $4.95 fur all other orders. To see more reviews this month head on over to da Chewy blog hop.  Hope you all have a wonderful day.
