My 4 months old puppy loves her new food. Not many companies offer raw food formulation for puppies. Even though other raw food companies state that their food is for “all lifestages”, I still feel it’s probably more ideal for the optimal growth of the puppy to be eating food that matches the nutritional needs of a growing dog. I’m so happy that I found Viva. I love that they don’t put synthetic vitamins. Also in terms of cost comparison with other similarly high quality raw food, the cost is reasonable.
After my puppy grows into adulthood, she will transition to their other recipes. I plan to purchase the adult recipes soon for my other dogs. I’m so glad my new puppy allowed me to find this company. My other dogs will also benefit since they will be transitioning over to Viva!

I have 2 Highlanders and they love most of the varieties offered! One of them goes crazy for the venison so it sucks that it’s only a seasonal flavor. It did take a couple of weeks to get them used to eating raw, so don’t be discouraged if your cats aren’t showing much interest at first. I mixed in a little with their normal wet food and increased the amount over a couple of weeks. Now I mix it with a little broth just for added moisture. I had one delivery that was a couple of days late (FedEx’s fault), but customer service was great at helping replace it! I’m excited to try the other seasonal varieties when available. :)

Great quality cat food! My cats absolutely love it, and I feel good knowing I’m giving them healthy, high-quality ingredients. Definitely recommend it! 🐱❤️

We love Viva for our Ducky - Viva la Ducky!
Ducky is a dachshund mix and almost had to get surgery for bladder stones. With Viva she has no more problems with UTIs and struvite bladder stones and her weight is just perfect, even with her morning treats, for which she comes running down the hallway to get them. She loves the turkey, which is a cooling protein and she no longer needs medication from the vet. We can't speak more highly about this food =)

The food seems high quality, however my will only eat the duck and ignore all the other flavors

Our cat Mory loves the food! Were still going through the sample packs but so far, the duck seems to be her favorite protein. She is still a kitten and because of her love for food, we love seeing Mory gaining healthy weight.

I just received my order, and thawed out a pound to give it a try. I appreciate the thawing container! That’s a nice touch. Initially, one of my cats wouldn’t touch it, he is a picky eater. I had to blend it with canned Instinct, then he ate most of it. I will continue this for a while, and hopefully he will adjust! It is MUCH more convenient to buy their food premade, so I don’t have to make it myself. And my veterinarian uses Viva, that’s where I got the recommendation

I think this is one of the best ways to try out a new food, specially when you have one picky cat, and one cat that will eat anything. So far, everything is going really well except for the picky one does not like beef so the good thing with the variety is I can keep going to see which ones he prefers.

My cats refuse to eat any of these.

I bought the 10 pound variety pack, which included pork, rabbit, beef and duck complete raw meals, for my two cats that are 10 1/2 years old. They are no strangers to raw, but about 2 years ago the formula was changed on their favorite raw brand, and it’s been hell ever since. Thank goodness we found Viva. The food arrived right on time and completely frozen. So far, the pork is a smash hit. By the end of the second day, they were eating 40% Viva. I don’t recommend anyone else move this quickly, but I knew it would be okay for them. I added a little Weruva pumpkin because their previous raw had a lot of vegetables, and I wanted the transition (and their poops) to be smooth. And so far, it’s been wonderful. Also, I’m not spending 30 minutes picking out dangerous sharp bones from their meals. The pork has been pretty smooth. I’m hopeful that they will love the other proteins as much as the pork!

As a dog human (and as a human!), I understand that poop gives us a ton of information about how the internal body system's doing. And so, I don't know about you, but I'm quite poop-obsessed when it comes to my dog! I'm still in the transitory phase of Viva - and I wasn't expecting to see any change at all at this point, but quite literally within 2 days there was a visible difference in her mucus content reducing drastically and the poop firming up! My rating's a 4 solely because the price is a little steep - but hey, only the best for her :)

I am a TICA registered sphynx breeder who has been feeding raw food for 6 (ish) years. I have been seeing Viva Raw ads and finally decided to give it a try, and I am so glad I did! My cats love the different proteins and the convenience is top tier! Having food automatically arrive at my door every month makes my life a lot easier. Thank you Viva raw.

I have two kittens and they go crazy for the viva raw food. Their favorite is the chicken. I already notice a difference in their stool, fur and overall health. I’m very happy with switching their diet to raw food.

Great food, my cat loves it. He transitioned just fine. I mix it with a little warm water to make it easier to eat since he only has a few teeth. Getting it however stresses me out, I wish there was a way to select a day or two for estimated arrival. I work 10 hr shifts and am so anxious one of these times it’s going to end up sitting at my door for hours while I’m at work and spoil.

My cat is loving the new raw food. She was throwing up a lot before so I knew I needed to feed her raw for the proper nutrients and Viva has been great. She practically inhales it.

My boy cat Arthur has gotten pickier about food in recent years and seems to be more sensitive to the standard canned food lately. He's unfortunately lost 2 lbs, so I switched him to Viva and he actually eats all the food now, minus the random sinewy bit here and there. Plus he hardly throws up at all anymore. He's still picky about the flavors; He absolutely LOVES the rabbit and beef. He's less enthusiastic about the duck and seems to go either way on the chicken and turkey depending on his mood that day. I don't get the pork just because I don't think pork is a great thing for them to be eating. All the food seems to get eaten even for the flavors he's not quite as enthusiastic about which was definitely not the case with canned food. Overall since there's less waste with Viva, and it's got a higher protein content, I think I'm actually saving money feeding him Viva instead of standard canned food. I've gotten two orders so far and both times the temperature on the meats was good, much of it was still frozen and the thawed bits were all colder than 40°F. Only minor complaint is my Viva container came with one of the tabs broken off the lid, so it doesn't close quite as nicely as it would otherwise. And having to keep the food frozen/refrigerated the whole time isn't quite as convenient as cans, but feels worth it. From my experience so far, I'd definitely recommend Viva.

He LOVES it. I didn’t even need to titrate him in. He ate the raw food from around his old kibble. He has got so much more energy. He used to just lie around but now he zooms through the house like a mad man. I am astonished by the changes it has made. I am glad I gave Raw a chance. I really love the fact that it has the nutrients already added to the meals and not have to add anything to it. This seems to be a quality product and can’t wait to see other improvements to his health. Thank you so much for giving my little guy some zest of life.

My puppy eats this food eagerly. I’m impressed with the clean, healthy ingredients and the excellent customer service. I was very upset when my first delivery arrived thawed, but they sent out a new batch within a week. The food is bright red and not gray like my previous frozen raw brand. My pup loves it.

My cat Steve is picky and I have never seen him SO EXCITED to eat.

The kitties love it I was afraid because they are picky eaters but, it seems like the transition won’t be too hard. The hard part is getting them to eat the old food and not only the new food so they don’t wreck their stomachs

My order was not delivered due to FedEx saying the box was damaged and they are not willing to replace it or refund me. They only offered me a partial credit towards my “next order”…having to go through my bank to get a refund for a product I never got is crazy.

I’ve had a great experience with Viva Raw. My cat is 4 months old and started with this raw food at 12 weeks. So far she loves the flavors, her fur is super soft and her stools are small, firm and don’t smell bad at all.

I also love the convenience of having the food delivered to my home, and the price is comparable to middle tier wet canned foods that I could find in my local pet stores.

We just started Viva raw and I am very happy with it! I used to do my own prep for feeding raw back in the day, but I don’t have the time or freezer space like I used to. This premade is so convenient and easy to store. It ships and delivers quickly. The thawing container helps tremendously too. My girl, Ziva is loving it as well! Her stool has improved so much!! So far one of the best balanced premade raw so far!
