Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 274 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the product quality, noting its high meat content and suitability for even the fussiest cats or those with dietary sensitivities. Many reviewers highlight the ease of the ordering process and the prompt, reliable delivery service, often arriving quickly and correctly. People appreciate finding healthy, natural options that their pets love and thrive on, especially for those with specific health needs. However, some customers also noted that while the product quality is superior, the pricing can be on the higher side. A few other people also felt that delivery times were occasionally slow or experienced issues with specific couriers, leading to lost or delayed parcels. There were also mentions of product inconsistency between batches, with some receiving treats that were brittle or powdery. Despite the general appeal, a small number of pets, particularly fussy ones, did not enjoy the food or treats.

Allergic to chicken but my cat loves the tuna. Great customer service !

Evri were a disaster and apparently lost the parcel but when I complained to Thrive a new parcel was immediately dispatched and arrived the next day. Great customer service.

My cat is allergic to chicken and loves the tuna. A relief to find something she can eat which she enjoys.

Best dog treats ever..

Thrive treats are my toy poodle's absolute favourites. My order always comes quickly and correctly.
Our favourites are the freeze dried chicken and other flavours, and the top one is the freeze dried hearts.

Prompt response

Whenever I have needed to contact Thrive the response has been more or less immediate - very impressive. My cat loves the chicken treats and I only have one criticism. When one gets to halfway through the tin, the chunks become very small and there is a lot of powder rather than large pieces, which is a bit disappointing. Other than that I cannot fault either the product or the company.

We’re really pleased to hear that you’ve found our customer service responsive and that your cat is enjoying the chicken treats. We also appreciate your comments about the texture towards the end of the tube — feedback like this is helpful as we continue to review and refine our products. Please don't throw away the powder, sprinkle it over your cat's dinner for a delicious treat!

Thank you, on behalf of your cat, for choosing Thrive.

Food in too much juice

Reply from Thrive Pet Foods

Hi Donna,
We’re sorry to hear that the texture wasn’t to your preference. Wet food is naturally higher in moisture by design, and our Complete Wet recipes are formulated to provide both nutrition and moisture as part of a balanced diet.

We appreciate you taking the time to let us know your thoughts.

All the best,
Thrive

The thrive products arrived safely.

The thrive products arrived safely.
Our cat really enjoys the chicken treats, though the tins of chicken and the beef went untouched. She just didn’t like them, which is a shame.
I would have liked to given her good food out of a tin instead of plastic pouches.
Cats can be strange creatures.

We’re pleased to hear that your order arrived safely and that your cat is enjoying the chicken treats. We’re sorry that the tinned recipes weren’t to her liking — as you say, cats can certainly have their own preferences.

My fussy cat loves these!

Very speedy delivery. It’s great to know that there is only white fish in these treats and my Ragdoll (who has many dietary issues) loves them.
