What Are Freeze-Dried Cat Treats?

What are freeze-dried treats?

They are 100% raw meat preserved by removing moisture while keeping it raw.

How are these treats different?

Unlike cooked kibble, freeze-drying locks in nutrients without heat damage.

Is freeze-dried meat safe for my cat?

Yes, it’s a clean, raw option that avoids the mess and risks of handling raw meat at home.

Can all cats eat these treats?

Most cats enjoy them, but check with your vet if your cat has special needs.

How should I store treats?

Keep them in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness and texture.

Do these treats replace regular meals?

They’re meant as supplements, not a full diet; always provide balanced daily meals.

How is it made?

Flash Freezing

Vacuum & Sublimation

Heat VS Cold

The frozen meat is moved into a vacuum chamber, which is a controlled environment designed to remove air and create an optimal setting for preservation.

After the meat has been positioned within the chamber, we carefully lower the pressure, creating a unique atmospheric condition that is essential for the subsequent process.

At the same time, we apply very slight warmth to facilitate a gradual transition.

In this specific environment, the ice that is contained inside the meat does not melt into water, which is often the expected outcome in regular conditions.

Instead, the transition occurs smoothly, allowing the ice to evaporate directly into gas, bypassing the liquid state altogether.

This intriguing process can be described as a transformation from Solid Ice ➡️ Gas Vapor.

This method not only helps in maintaining the quality and texture of the meat but also significantly reduces the risk of spoilage, thereby extending its shelf life and improving its suitability for various culinary applications.

The Result

98-99% of moisture is removed, but the structural integrity of the meat remains.

The treat keeps its shape, size, and most importantly, its nutrient profile.

Fresh, human-grade raw meat (Chicken, Salmon, etc.) is frozen instantly to approximately -40°C.

This rapid freezing process is essential as it prevents large ice crystals from forming within the meat.

When large ice crystals form, they can cause significant damage to the cell walls, leading to a loss of texture and flavor once the meat is thawed.

By freezing the meat quickly, we help maintain its natural qualities and ensure that it remains nutritious and delicious.

Moreover, this freezing technique is crucial for preserving the integrity of the meat, allowing for safe long-term storage without compromising its freshness and quality.

Why Is It Better than Normal Treats?

Most supermarkets treats are full of grains, corn, fillers, and artificial flavors ....

Protection of Heat-Sensitive Nutrients

High heat destroys vitamins. Traditional kibble is extruded at temperatures over 100°C

This destroys natural enzymes and vitamins (especially Vitamin B and Taurine)

Taurine is Critical: Cats cannot make their own Taurine, they must eat it. Heat destroys Taurine. Because our treats are never cooked, the natural Taurine in the meat is preserved.

No Maillard Reaction

When meat is cooked/roasted, it turns brown

(The Maillard Reaction).

While tasty for humans, this chemical reaction can bind amino acids (Lysine), making them harder for your cat to digest.

Lowest Water Activity

You might ask, "Is raw meat safe?"

Freeze-drying reduces the "Water Activity" to such a low level that bacteria like Salmonella cannot survive or reproduce.

It is the safety of dry food with the nutrition of raw food.
