Hi, everybuddy! It’s me…Ernie! The peoples at Mr. Chewy asked us if we would try the Nature’s Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites and let everybuddy know what we thought of them. Hey, I get treats?? Count me in!!

According to Mr. Chewy, the Raw Boost Bites are a pure and healthy treat made from minimally processed, freeze-dried raw ingredients. They’re totally grain-free. The mom has been looking for grain-free treats for us that we’ll eat.
We tried the chicken flavored ones. They also come in beef, venison and lamb. And here’s an interesting thing…they’re for cats AND woofies! A multi-purpose treat!! They’re a little big, so the mom broke one into smaller pieces for us.

What do I think of the Raw Boost Bites?? YUM!!! I gobbled my pieces up and went looking for more!!

But Wally was not enamored and turned his nose up to them. That’s okay…more for me!!

Zoey loves them, too!
Now at $9.99 a bag (through Mr. Chewy), Raw Boost Bites are a little pricier than your average kitty treat, but really, when you think about the fact that there’s about 18 in a bag and you can break one up easily into about 5-6 smaller pieces (that’s what the mom did), they’re really not that much more expensive. And they’re a YUMMY treat that’s GOOD FOR YOU! You can’t beat that!!
So here’s how we came out on the Nature’s Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites:
Zoey – 4 paws up![]()
Wally – 4 paws down
(eh, he doesn’t know what he’s missing)
Me – 4 paws (with extra toesies) up ![]()
As Meatloaf sang… ♫ Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad!! ♫
(Disclaimer: We did get the Nature’s Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites for free when we agreed to do this review, but that’s all we got, and it did not influence our opinion about them.)

Mmm looks yummy! I love it’s grain-free! I agree, two out of three ain’t bad. It’s hard to please everyone.

Sigh. We’ll probably never see those at our local stores…
But we’ll make Mommy write it down so if Daddy goes to the US again for a meeting, we can get him to buy a pack for us! Thanks for the review!

Yummy always works for me too!

MOL Ernie there is always a critic in the group. Wally must not like it because you and Zoey do. Just has to be different.
As for me I’ve never met any food I didn’t like. I live to eat.

Those treats look tasty…we have had our treats cut back, while we are trying to lose weight…it really isn’t fair!
August 20th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
We love those too! Well, 9 out of 13 of us do…
August 20th, 2012 at 11:40 AM
I haf to eat Nature’s Variety Instinct canned foodz coz I haf problems with some common additives. We is telling the human to lookie these when she orders my venison!
August 20th, 2012 at 11:57 AM
Glad you enjoyed testing those out. They do look good, I must say.
August 20th, 2012 at 1:02 PM
Sounds yummy!!! We think grain free is a good idea too
August 20th, 2012 at 1:05 PM
I hope you got an extra bite for the review!! Great job, I love the four paws up /down arrows!
August 20th, 2012 at 1:19 PM
Nhumi!
August 20th, 2012 at 2:04 PM
We ALL love those Boost Bites! Even picky me! Wally REALLY does not know what he is missing!
August 20th, 2012 at 2:06 PM
Grain free is a good way to go, and it does always seem more expensive. But then, why pay for grains that aren’t natural to their diet anyway?
August 20th, 2012 at 2:34 PM
I love Wally’s refusal to acknowledge treat! I’ve definitely gotten that reaction from my kitties before!
August 20th, 2012 at 2:40 PM
Sounds like they are yummy but mum says she bets I would be like Wally. I do turn my nose up at lots of treats.. Enjoy yours Hugs G xx
August 20th, 2012 at 3:39 PM
These seem extra yummy treats from Mr. Chewy. Also Ernie I like the added paw in your four paw review good to put your purrsonal stamp on this
August 20th, 2012 at 4:14 PM
Wally, you are a discerning cat! The kittenbabies would eat anything! Tulip too when it comes to treats only though! But we have discerning cats here too where treats are concerned

THey look good. they are about 55 cents each or 14 cents per quarter!
August 20th, 2012 at 5:59 PM

That was a great review Ernie! We haven’t tried those yet but Mommy says we will eventually. She’s a slow poke. At 5-6 treats per dealy bob, that’d be two days of treats for us!
August 20th, 2012 at 7:07 PM
That is one of my FAVORITE treats! My Mommeh breaks them up and I get a few little pieces at a time.
August 20th, 2012 at 7:43 PM
I’m gonna side with Wally even though I never had them. Actually, TW brought something from Blogpaws that she had to break up for you and I turned my stunning nose up at it.
August 20th, 2012 at 8:40 PM
Hmmm. me thinks that me would LOVES to eats those treats!

August 20th, 2012 at 8:41 PM
Treats!? We’d try those too!
August 20th, 2012 at 9:32 PM
Hey, how do we get on Mr Chewy’s review list? Cushy job….
August 20th, 2012 at 9:43 PM
Gotta say: I never met a treat I couldn’t walk away from.
August 20th, 2012 at 10:11 PM
…sooooo, what you guys gonna do with the ones Wally didn’t want? …they all gone already, huh? Well, …we woulda gobbled them up too! They sure looked good to us. Enjoy! Those are the kinds of tests to get
Hugs to all you guys!

I guess the moral of this story is that two out of three cats love Raw Boost Bites! As for Wally — there’s one in efurry crowd.
August 20th, 2012 at 10:54 PM
Tommy is all into no–grains for us too. Says better for our insides, even it tugs at her purse–whatever THAT means.
Might gotta give these a try!! Thanks for the review, dude!

Ooooh! Two out of three cats liking the treats isn’t bad
Carmine and Milita are pretty picky about their treats, but Jewel will eat just about anything, LOL! I bet they would go for the chicken out of the available falvors, so I may have to check them out sometime.
Thanks for sharing the review!
August 21st, 2012 at 9:31 AM
I’ll bet we’d like those–we like freeze dried chicken–so we should try these too.
August 21st, 2012 at 3:51 PM
Sounds tempting but kinda pricey for us.
August 21st, 2012 at 4:07 PM
That sounds like a delicious treat! When you rated the treat 4 paws up (with extra tosies), my owner thought it was so cute!
