My cats used to love the chicken

My cats used to love the chicken. I've just had a new delivery from a supplier and noticed a packaging change. On opening the tin, I realised that the product as also changed and now lacks the creamy texture it used to have. My cat won't touch it.

Good choice of healthy food & treats.

Delivery was fast with the tins well packed in a sturdy box. Good choice of healthy food & treats for my cats. Helpful to be able to buy 1 small tin of each flavour to let 'the fusspots' try each 1. They didn't like every flavour but my Rottie didn't object to the leftovers! However I wish that larger tins were available for multi cat households. I'm very happy to have found a high quality complete wet food that 'the fusspots' will eat.

Order did not arrivd. A week later it was re sent out …

My order did not arrive after waiting over a week. Finally got hold of someone via email and they re sent my order. I then asked a question regarding this and have not had a single response. This was my first time ordering direct through Thrieve so my experience has unfortunately put me off ordering again.

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience with your first order. This is not the standard we aim to provide, and we understand how frustrating the delay and lack of follow-up must have been over the bank holiday weekend.

We’re pleased that a replacement was arranged, but we’re sorry that your subsequent query wasn’t responded to quickly enough. If you’re happy to do so, please contact our customer care team again and we’ll make sure this is followed up as a priority.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Thrive treats are excellent

Thrive treats are excellent and my little poodle loves them. Great training with them. No nasty additives. The only negative is the postage. Expensive and slow!
