Description
Renal Essentials Feline Bite-Sized Chews help maintain proper kidney function by supporting renal circulation, normal fluid retention, normal detoxification, stress management, homocysteine balance, and kidney and liver function. The inclusion of astragalus root powder supports kidney circulation and immune function, while the Chinese herb rehmannia supports kidney and liver function, and is known as the "kidney’s own food." Other ingredients like vitamins B1 and B2 support metabolic activity, including the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, supporting proper energy production. Folic acid, DMG, B12 and B6 help support methylation and sulfuration pathways, while minerals like potassium are important for water balance. B vitamins are water soluble and not properly recycled during times of kidney stress or dysfunction; therefore, supplementation may be required.

I had ordered Vetri Lysine Plus for my cat elsewhere, and she liked those chews fine. I figured I'd buy the Renal Essentials chews for her to see if she'd like them. She won't touch them. By no means do I blame the product or company, but I'm disappointed that she won't eat these chews.

This was delivered today and my cat was so excited to eat them. She hasn't had any "treats" in a while because she is diabetic. Now that her kidneys are failing I am glad she likes these chews.
Great for older cat with kidney issues.

This is an honest review as an employee of FoodScience. I have a senior cat with kidney issues, so I wanted to try this product. My vet approved the product for his kidney health, which was reassuring. He had some teeth removed but was able to eat the treats easily.
I would buy this product again!

This is an honest review as an employee of FoodScience. I bought these for some cats that I help to take care of. While they get lots of attention and love, they are working cats so aren't in the regular pet home environment. Because of that + the fact that they eat dry food more often than wet food, I wanted something that could help support their kidneys. I like that this product has a lot of really good active ingredients and is clearly made specifically for cats. These chews are a little firmer than other cat supplement treats but they're still soft enough to be chewed right up. The Orange cat gobbled them up, I had to crumble them into the Gray cat's daily canned food, but it's worth it to make sure they're getting their supplements and staying healthy.

Cats ate it the first time on its own but then refused. Now I crumble it up and sprinkle it on their food topped with a spoonful of Lil' Soups. Then it disappears. Supplements or prescription foods don't do any good if cats won't eat them so "season" it!
I will not be purchasing again.

My cat will sometimes eat these but most of the time he will not. I was giving him Standard Processing tablets that I pulverized and blended into his food. I was hoping this Kidney supplement would be as good because it is about 1/2 the cost, but he is too inconsistent in eating them.

My cat wouldn't eat these when I first tried. I had purchased the chewable tablets as well and ended up crushing the tablets I to his food. After a week of that I tried the chews again and he will now eat them so I stopped giving him the tablets.
My cats love these!

My male cat was diagnosed with renal disfunction and bladder stones about 8 years ago. I have been using this product (his little fishes) as an appetizer before his meals for the last 8 years. After a few small changes and this product, my cat no longer has bladder disfunction and he hasn't had any more stones. Thanks for such a great product! I will be reordering from your company website.

No issues with the company or product. Both cats did not want to eat. I tried as a suggestion by my vet. I'll donate to local shelter

Purchased 3 bags of these renal treats due to regular treats being unavailable. Cat started vomiting almost immediately. Cat is finicky, but vet said stop the treats…just in case. I left four (4) voicemails at company number over the past week, with NO return calls. They may sell you the product, but they don't seem to care once the purchase has been made.

Thanks for reaching out to us, Salvatore. We're so sorry to hear that your cat didn't do well with these chews. Our products contain high levels of active ingredients that can lead to mild stomach upset in some cats. Your cat should be OK once it's out of their system. However, if symptoms persist, we'd recommend contacting your veterinarian for further evaluation. You may want to administer these chews with meals to offset the possibility of stomach upset. With our 100% satisfaction guarantee, you can return this product to us for a full refund or replacement product within 45 days of the purchase date. Please contact us at 1-800-882-9993 or info@vetriscience.com for further assistance. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused and hope your kitty feel better soon!

I'm a veterinary technician and I want the very best products for my cat as he makes it towards the end of his journey. This company has a solid reputation in this industry and I've tried three, soon to be four of their fish chew supplements (lysine, renal, probiotic, glycoflex) and my cats get so excited to take them every day. Prompt, excellent customer service as well. I'm a happy customer :)
My cat is a lot more energetic

My cat definitely seems to be doing much better after starting on Renal Essentials - noticeably more vitality and better appetite. I haven't had his kidney values retested yet, but he seems his old self again. I had trouble getting him to eat these supplements at first, but now I finely chop two and mix them up with a broken-up freeze-dried salmon treat that he loves. Licks it all up in no time. I do the same again in the evening. It would be nice if VetriScience would run a randomized control study to have actual scientific evidence for this product's efficacy, but it seems to help!
