Absolutely not chewy. Chewy=soft. Very misleading.Thankfully my cat will still ear them and his teeth are strong enough. He seems to enjoy flavor. Too soon to tell if effective for uti help

Bought these for my cat and, when I opened them, all I could smell were cranberries. I'm pretty sure there's no meat in them and if it's listed in the ingredients then I missed it before I had used most of the treats, there aren't as many in there as I had expected, and threw out the bag. I tried every way I could to get him to eat them, even tried hiding them inside his food AND some tuna (he howls when there's a can open and practically climbs my leg to get to it). I'm sure the treats work perfectly fine for cats that will eat them but I'd advise just being aware if you end up spending that much on treats and your cat is like mine and thinks they're too good for cranberries.

TLDR: Flow has helped our kitty become much healthier and prevented her from getting more UTIs. Our British shorthair cat with chronic UTIs and a sensitive stomach loves these "treats," and hasn't had any UTI symptoms for the past 6 months! She used to never drink water, but now loves to drink from her water bowl at least 3x per day; also, she has become a little less overweight, which is a great thing for her health too!FULL STORY: We have a lovely British short-haired cat who has always been slightly chubby. She is a very picky eater with a very sensitive stomach. Most importantly - she never drank from her water bowl and had a difficult time cleaning herself after using the little box (again, she's a little bit chubby). About a year ago she developed her first UTI. We called the vet, who then put her on antibiotics and gave her fluids. For one month, she was fine, but then had UTI symptoms again. The vet said we had a chronic UTI cat. For the next 30 days, we gave her tons of liquids (more brothy and gravy-filled foods and tried every way to convince her to drink more water from water fountains, to ice cubes, to all shapes, sizes, and temperatures of water bowls to no avail), we tried apple cider vinegar treatments and cranberry paste for cats, but after 30 days, she had a UTI again. In desperation, we tried Flow, not expecting it to work, getting ready for more vet bills every month. However, SURPRISE SURPRISE, Flow worked amazingly!!!Flow is excellent!! First, our cat loves the flavor so much we call it her "treat." Second, she now drinks water on her own from her water bowl at least 3x per day with no coaxing! Third, she's been losing weight, eating better, and acting like a happy kitty once again. And finally, and most importantly, she hasn't had a UTI since we started using it six months ago. For our kitty household, Flow is as important as food and water, usually taking 1, 2, or 3 Flow treats per day for our 13-pound British shorthair cat. To the people who created Flow - you guys are lifesavers - literally. Thank you!!

We are the third bag of Flow and things are all great. My older girl kitty was having issues with urinary crystals and urinary food did not seem to be helping. Plus, she did not like the urinary food since she has been fed grain free food. So, I started looking for an alternative. She loves the Flow and runs to get them. She is back on grain free food with Flow supplement and she is feeling much better and the issues seem to be resolving. Her throwing up issues have been minimized too. Will definitely continue with Flow. My only problem is the size of the treat, it is quite large and she has trouble getting in her mouth. So, I just cut in half or thirds and all is well. My question, why don't the vets offer Flow as a suggestion as a supplement?

Just received my order today and gave two of then to my 15 yr. old female cat and she liked them. Several years ago, she use to get bladder infections and my vet suggested I buy Purina Urinary Health dry food. I give it to her every day (as well as Tasty Treats canned food ) and she hasn't had a single infection since. I feed the same two kinds to my 7 yr. old male cat also and he has never had a urinary tract problem. I am passing along this info. in case it may help someone else. I purchase a 7 lb. bag of the Purina dry food from Amazon every so often.

My 'Squirt' has cronic UTI issues but didn't have at the time. I mainly bought for maintenance. The first dose she ate just fine and everything was great. The next day I gave her a couple before I went to bed and woke up twice to her throwing up. That's not normal for her and the treats were the only thing that changed in her diet. Knew I had to try again to make sure. The third day I gave her treats and within just a couple of minutes she started screaming crying like she was hurting. She made a huge dash here and there and just cried, hissed, and growled! Squirt hardly ever meows so this was abnormal for her. She spent about 10 minutes acting this way. I was thinking I needed to head to the vet. She finally calmed down and let me pet her and she was fine. She just acted like the treats hurt her stomach. Can't say I would recommend these. I sure won't use them again.
