Crunchables Chicken Treat
Verified Jul 27, 2026
This is a high-protein, freeze-dried crunchy chicken treat for cats, using real chicken as the main ingredient. Pumpkin, yogurt, flaxseed, fruits, and psyllium husk add fiber and supportive nutrients that can be helpful for digestion and hairball management. It’s intended as a supplemental snack rather than a complete diet and is suitable for most adult cats in small daily amounts.

Strong Choice
Nutritionally, this is a simple, high-meat, freeze-dried treat with thoughtfully chosen extras aimed at digestive support and hairball management. The protein level is very high for a treat, and the ingredient list is short and straightforward, which many cats with sensitive stomachs may tolerate well. Because it’s calorie-dense like most freeze-dried products, portions need to stay small, especially for indoor or less active cats.

Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Very high protein (54% minimum) from chicken, which is an excellent, highly digestible protein source for most cats.
- Short, recognizable ingredient list with added pumpkin, psyllium husk, and flaxseed that can contribute fiber to support normal digestive function and hairball passage.
- Freeze-dried, minimally processed format helps preserve nutrients and tends to be highly palatable to cats.
- Low moisture and high nutrient density make it easy to use as a small but satisfying training or reward treat.
Considerations
- Contains chicken, a common food allergen in cats, so it is not a good choice for cats with known chicken allergies or sensitivities.
- Very calorie-dense (about 156 kcal per ounce), so overfeeding treats could contribute to unwanted weight gain if you don’t reduce calories elsewhere.
- Includes dairy (yogurt), which some very sensitive cats may not tolerate well, though the amount is likely small in each treat.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

02
Potato
Potato is commonly used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate source and functional binder, supplying starch, fiber, and modest amounts of vitamins (B6, C) and potassium—often included as cooked or dehydrated flakes, starch, or protein concentrates. While it provides energy and helps formulate grain‑free recipes, potatoes are not a primary protein for dogs or cats (and are not nutritionally required for obligate‑carnivore cats), can contribute to excess calories or affect blood glucose in diabetic animals, and must be cooked and free of green skins or sprouts to avoid solanine toxicity; allergies are uncommon but possible.

03
Pumpkin
Pumpkin is used in pet foods primarily as a fiber-rich carbohydrate and moisture source that can help regulate digestion and firm up loose stools or add bulk for softer stools, and it provides beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor) plus small amounts of vitamins and minerals for dogs and cats. It is safe and beneficial when plain cooked or canned (not spiced or sweetened pie filling), should be fed in moderation as a supplement rather than a primary food, and introduced gradually since large amounts can cause gastrointestinal upset or interfere with absorption of some medications.

04
Yogurt
Yogurt is used in pet foods and treats as a dairy-based source of protein, calcium and live probiotic cultures that may support digestion and gut flora. It can be beneficial for some dogs and occasionally cats because it is lower in lactose than milk, but owners should choose plain, low‑fat, unsweetened varieties, avoid artificial sweeteners (especially xylitol), and be cautious with lactose-intolerant pets or animals with pancreatitis or weight concerns.

05
Flaxseed
Flaxseed is used in pet foods as a plant-based source of alpha‑linolenic acid (ALA) omega‑3, soluble and insoluble fiber, and modest protein, often added to support skin and coat condition, digestive health, and kibble texture; ground seed or flaxseed oil is more digestible than whole seed. Dogs can partially convert ALA to long‑chain EPA/DHA but cats convert ALA poorly and therefore still need marine sources for essential DHA/EPA; flax is calorie‑dense, prone to oxidation if not stabilized, and contains lignans (phytoestrogens) and trace cyanogenic compounds, so it should be processed and used in moderation.
