Impressive list of igredients that cats loved
"These squeezable treat sticks are made with high quality ingredients and seem very nutritious for my cats. The first ingredient (after water) is tuna, and my cats go crazy for these as soon as I open a tube and they get a sniff. While the added vitamins are a nice bonus they do not justify the insanely high price for this 4-pack of sticks. The larger, bulk packages come in at a better value than these $3 per tube option. The contents are fairly liquidy but no so much that I would call them watery. My cats are able to lick it from the end without it dripping. Overall, these are a tasty, healthy treat. Just don't buy the rip off 4-pack."

Great nutrition comes at a cost.
"Our puppy loved the taste and texture! You can see her response in the video. The instructions suggest two sticks per day for a dog her size (18lbs). Each serving is just over one-half ounce, four servings per package. The ingredients read like a super food snack. The proteins are all seafood. There is no grain. The only filler is Tapioca. We did not smell fish on her breath, so that is a good thing! They are referred to as sticks, but they are not solid. When opened as directed, the contents can be squeezed out as a paste (see the video). As nutritious and tasty as these are, there is only variety, seafood. The cost works out to about $3.00 per serving. As much as we love our furry family member, these kind of treats must be reserved for special occasions. It is a bit expensive per serving."

My cat and dog both enjoy it
"I wasn't ready to buy a full box, so the 4 stick pouch was perfect. Both my cat and dog loved it from the first stick, and I ended up ordering the larger size! Great option if you're trying Total Balance for the first time."

The cats really like it
"The cats really like these. They come in a plastic pouch and each of the squeezable pouches is pretty thick. I had a little bit of a hard time pulling it open. I was about to go get the scissors when I finally got it. So, you don't have to worry about these pouches leaking unless you really put some pressure on them. The cats really liked this. You just squeeze the paste out of the tube. The cats licked up every last bit and were looking around for more. The big issue I have with them is the price for only four of these. They are $11.99 as I write this. That means each of these little squeezable sticks is about $3. That is really expensive in my opinion."

My cat Loved These Treats
"These squeeze treats were a big hit with my cat. The texture is smooth and creamy, and she was very interested in them right away. I like that they can be used in different ways. You can hand-feed them as a treat, mix them into food, use them as a topper, or even freeze them for enrichment activities. The individual packets are convenient and easy to open without making a mess, which also makes them nice for travel or quick treats during the day. The seafood flavor seems very appealing, and even my pickier pet had no problem eating it. I also appreciate that the treats include added ingredients beyond just a basic puree snack. These are a convenient and versatile option for treats, food toppers, or enrichment activities for both dogs and cats."

Expensive at $3 per stick
"My dog loved these packets of vitamin filled treats. There are four sticks in the container. Each stick is mainly water with 9% crude protein. The protein comes from tuna, cod, salmon, and lobster. The vitamins come from broccoli and mango. The calorie information is very confusing�..829.14 K cal ME/kg. Since each stick is only 15 g there is only 12.44 k cal per stick. It is really useless information to list the calories per kilogram. The product appears to have a three-year shelflife because the Best Buy date on the package is 2/24/2029. My dog loved licking it right from the package, but it can also be poured into a bowl, or on top of food. It is recommended to feed a small dog or cat one stick per day. A large dog or cat can get four sticks per day, which makes this product extremely expensive. Since there are only four sticks in the package at a price point of $12, or $3 per stick, it can really add up if you are feeding multiple sticks per day. For that reason, I do not recommend this product. It is a nice treat for special occasions, but not something. I would feed my pet every day due to the excessive price."

My picky Frenchie Lola LOVES them. 200% frenchie and Frenchie Mom approved
"No spoken audio My 9 year old Frenchie means the world to me so keeping her healthy is of the utmost importance, especially now that she�s technically a senior citizen! I know from personal experience how difficult it is to maintain vitamin levels as we age, and since dogs and humans have similar systems I wanted to find a nutrient supplement that would be easier for Lola to absorb all while tasting great. I opted to give Choolip a try after reading great things about it. Choolip is a nutrient enriched goop. That�s really the only way I can describe it. But don�t let the goop turn you off, most dogs love eating funky stuff!! My Lola is super picky, i�m sure other French bulldog owners know this feeling. But she never ceases to surprise me with the things she chooses to eat! In all honesty, she was skeptical about the Choolip at first. But once she realized it was the only snack I had in my bag she gave it a try, and from that point on a relationship was born. Lola loves this stuff!! I can�t tell you exactly what she loves about it whether it�s the creamy texture or the funky smell. That�s not too overpowering, but just funky enough for her to want to give it a try. I take a prepackaged tube out of my bag, she sits like a good girl gives me a little head tilt , looks at me with loving eyes that say �Fanks Mom!� Then proceeds to devour it. I often have to take it away from her just so she can catch her breadth. As a dog Mom, I really appreciate several things about the Choolip Vita Sticks. First off it�s portable. I love the easy to open tubes that these come in. Lola can lick her new favorite treat right out of the package.I can take it with me as one of her treats while we�re out for the day and she doesn�t know that she�s getting something that�s really good for her. These vita sticks are chock full of nutrients and vitamins, which, if I were to buy all of this individually for her would cost me a fortune, so they�re definitely a great value. I love that they�re not pills then I have to try to hide in a cookie or a piece of cheese, which I will most certainly find later in the day or possibly in the week stuck in the corner of a totally different room than the room I originally gave her the treat in. They seem to have a good variety. I have yet to try other flavors. I don�t want to mess with something that�s already going so well. But I have a feeling that Lola would probably enjoy other variations given how much she loves this stuff. Overall, I am very happy with the Choolip Vita Stick. They�re conveniently packaged, highly portable, are filled with lots of the nutrients my elderly French bulldog needs and most importantly Lola really loves them!! I�m so happy to have found this great product. If you have a dog , regardless of their age, and you are thinking about adding a vitamin regimen to their diet, give these a try. I don�t think you will be disappointed. Big win for this Dog Mom and her super picky Frenchie!!"

Good and Good For Them!
"No spoken audio My little Chiweenie absolutely loves treats, but because of his small frame, I have to be incredibly careful that he doesn't pack on extra pounds and become overweight. These Choolip Squeeze Vita Sticks have been a fantastic alternative to traditional biscuits because they allow me to spoil him with a high-value reward that is actually healthy for him! Here is why these functional puree treats are an excellent addition to a small dog's routine: I really appreciate that these aren�t just simple treats with zero purpose. They include essential Vitamins B, C, and E, alongside premium Korean fermented postbiotics. It feels great knowing that every squeeze offers genuine daily wellness, immune support, and gut health benefits rather than empty calories. The ingredient profile is incredibly clean, which gives me complete peace of mind. There are absolutely no grains, no artificial colors or flavors, no trans fats, and no mysterious meat by-products. Most importantly for a health-conscious pet parent, they contain no added salt, sugar, or other artificial sweeteners. We tried the savory seafood flavor, and it is a massive hit. The rich puree format is highly aromatic and flavorful, making it perfect for encouraging picky eaters or jumpstarting a daily feeding routine. It can even be used as a wholesome topper to dress up standard dry kibble. They are so easy to use, you simply cut the end off of the tube and your furry friend will lick it clean. These 15g squeeze sticks are exceptionally versatile. They work beautifully as a direct, mess-free reward right from the tube, but they are also fantastic for spreadable enrichment activities. I love squeezing a stick onto a lick mat or inside a puzzle toy to keep my dog mentally stimulated and occupied. Considering the high quality of the ingredients, the specialized postbiotics, and the added vitamins included in each stick, the price point honestly seems very reasonable. You are paying for targeted nutrition rather than filler. Final Thoughts: If you have a small dog or a pet whose weight you need to monitor closely, these Choolip Vita Sticks are a wonderful investment. They bridge the gap between a decadent, high-value snack and a healthy wellness supplement seamlessly. My Chiweenie gives them two enthusiastic paws up, and I will definitely be keeping these stocked in our pantry! <<<<<<< As an Amazon Vine member, I personally select products to review. I tend to choose items that align with my interests and needs, which often leads to positive 4- and 5-star ratings. However, if a product does not meet my expectations, or it is not a good value, I will always provide an honest and transparent assessment of its performance. EVERYTHING starts at a 5, and goes from there. I thoroughly read the descriptions and if I don't like the description, I don't order the item. If the product shows up as advertised they get a 5. If there are unadvertised flaws, or if the information or photos are misleading, it is noted and stars removed accordingly. All opinions expressed in my reviews are my own, and on occasion, I may include feedback from my family or friends to offer a more comprehensive perspective."

Costly even if Delish
"My husband mixes up things to make the dry kibble more interesting anyway, but the little one in my video can be somewhat picky. I think she could smell this and was already ready to gobble it down. I looked at the ingredients in these and among the first six ingredients were four different types of fish. Dogs do like fish! At least mine do. Hubby fed the other three sticks to the other three dogs and got the same result as the first one in the video. Evidently, these are delicious. I had expected them to have a strong odor, but they don't. At about $3 each, I'm not sure I would buy these regularly, as a whole can of store brand fishy cat food can be had for less than $1 and is about 3 ounces vs. the half ounce in these sticks. When being given to 4 dogs, these sticks would cost us $12 a day. The 3 ounces of canned cat food would give each dog about 3/4 ounce and would cost about 25 cents each vs. $3 each. This is why I gave 4 stars. If cost is not a consideration, 5 starts would be appropriate."

Cat and dog loved it !
"I ordered these treats and honestly loved the idea behind them because most treats are usually made specifically for either dogs or cats, but not both. The funny thing is that neither my dog nor my cat care about that distinction whenever something smells delicious. If my cat sees me giving my dog a treat, he immediately comes over wanting one too, and if my dog sees me giving my cat something, it�s even worse because she gets so excited. My cat is actually very patient with her though � I think he understands she�s an older dog and tries not to bother her too much. What I really liked about these treats is that they�re made for both cats and dogs, so I can safely give them to both pets without worrying. And I can confidently say that both of them approved immediately. My dog usually loves almost anything food-related, although at her age there are definitely some things she doesn�t enjoy anymore. My cat, however, is much pickier. There are many dog treats that don�t interest him at all, and he usually walks away without even trying them. But with these treats, both of them got excited right away and happily ate them, which honestly made me really happy. I also appreciate that these aren�t just simple treats with no purpose. They include vitamins and added nutritional benefits, so it feels like they offer more than just a snack. The price honestly doesn�t seem unreasonable considering everything they include. That being said, for my personal situation right now, they are a little harder to buy regularly. I have a 15-year-old dog with a heart condition who requires ongoing medical care and monthly medication, so most of my budget goes toward her treatment, food, and daily needs. Because of that, treats like these become more of a special purchase for us rather than something I could give every single day. Still, I think these are excellent treats, especially for people who have both a dog and a cat like I do. Usually you have to buy separate treats for each pet, and even then they always want what the other one has. I also tend to worry about ingredients and whether one pet should or shouldn�t eat something meant for the other. That�s why I really liked that these are intended for both, which gives me extra peace of mind when sharing them. Overall, both of my pets loved them, they seem high quality, and they made my pets very happy. I�ll definitely buy them again occasionally as a special treat for both of them."
