about delicious treats for cats
hartz, a well-known US-based pet products company, manufactures delectable cat treats.
according to the company website, hartz was founded in 1926 by a young german immigrant max stern. Stern established his New York City business with singing canaries, soon expanding into packaged bird food. This began the Hartz line of pet products. In the 1950s, the company expanded into fish and aquarium products. In the 1960s they added products for dogs and cats, including the Hartz Flea and Tick Collar. his flea and tick collar remains the best-selling flea and tick collar in the united states today.
Since 2000, the company has been sold and merged several times with other companies. today’s dominant shareholders are a japan-based company. hartz manufactures over 1,500 different products for all types of pets and their products are sold all over the world.
per hartz, his delectable treats were the first gourmet treats for wet cats. The candies are available as lickable candies, squeezes, broths, stews, bisques, and in other textures. they also make formulas for kittens, adults, and seniors.
The delicious squeezes are described as the first interactive wet cat treat. the treat is a rich puree in a lickable tube for hand feeding. They can also be served in a bowl or as a complement to your cat’s usual food.
delectables recently launched a new ad campaign for their products.
sourcing and manufacturing
the delicious ones are made in thailand, according to information on the hartz faq page. They claim that Thailand is one of the world’s richest sources of tuna, which is a key ingredient in their delicacies.

positive reviews
Three months ago, I adopted a one and a half year old cat. Needless to say, she’s been pampered to death. Simone is a bit thick, so she needs to lose a bit. she’s on a wet food diet, but she gets the occasional treat. she was looking for something other than crunchy treats that she would like.
…OMG I brought these home and he loved them from the start! she would eat them 24/7 if she could open them herself. ? I give him one when I go to work and another before bed. she follows me when she is close to treatment time. once I say “let’s go get your gift!” it’s like someone started a fire under her and she flew down the stairs to the kitchen. They are definitely a hit in this house! – by donna, review of hartz delectables squeeze up interactive wet cat treats to lick on september 29, 2022
cats love these things more than I would have thought possible. my herd (five of them) come running when they hear the container lid unscrew. and even my feral kitten, who won’t let me near her under normal circumstances, rubs her ankles and raises her paws to politely ask me to try. If I hold the squeeze in one hand, I can even apply a flea preventative to the feral while she licks her pouch, she loves it.
I also use the tablets to mix with medicines when my babies need them. instead of spraying the medicine in their mouths and having them spit out half of it, I just mix it with a delectable, and I still *don’t* have a cat that licks up every drop.
The best part is that even my older cat, who doesn’t have many teeth left, can enjoy these treats; no chewing required! – by kindle customer reviewing hartz delectables squeeze interactive wet cat treats to lick on Sep 25, 2022
negative reviews
I’m really mad about this gift. I couldn’t read the ingredient list and it’s my fault, but why call a product “chicken” if the first ingredient is fish? my cat developed a fish allergy due to the ubiquitous use of tuna in so many cat products. despite the mercury levels in tuna, manufacturers continue to use it in most cat foods. irresponsible choice of profit over consumer health. – by kaeen reviewing a variety of 10-pack cat treats a year ago.
