WAFFLES: Mmmm... HavePaws CHEEKY Chicken! I have paws. And I like chicken.
KATIE: Waffles, what have you DONE???
WAFFLES: Nothing.
KATIE: Then why are you surrounded by empty treat bags? Shredded, empty treat bags.
WAFFLES: I don't know.
KATIE: Don't you know we're supposed to be tasting and reviewing these for our giveaway?
WAFFLES: I already tasted them, Boss. Just doing my part.
KATIE: Way to go, Waffles. It looks like a crime scene around here.
WAFFLES: Crime scene?
FROM THE EDITOR: Please note the grey duffle bag in the above photograph. It was zipped shut. Completely zipped shut. The zipper, known to be sticky, requires that Glogirly use two hands to open it. The unopened treats were safely packed away inside a Ziploc freezer bag, inside said duffle. That is all.
*One week later, after Glogirly emailed the HavePaws treat man. Subject line: Houston, we have a problem.*
HavePaws is something special.
We've known Noah Falkie of HavePaws for quite some time now. We've been in touch regularly as he's been developing his new line of jerky treats for cats and dogs. The moment we first heard his story, we knew he was working on something very special.
In 2013 the first HavePaws recipe was born and in early 2014 HavePaws licensed it's first pet food manufacturing facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Their mission is to give the pets of America a food that is healthy and nourishing, not just words on a label.
Nothing but the good stuff.
Many commercial-brand pet treats use artificial flavorings, colorings and preservatives in their treats. Ingredients you can't pronounce, let alone recognize.
HavePaws is different. Their small batch pet treats only contain fresh and locally grown meats, and vitamins and minerals that you know and understand. Their treats are always grain and gluten free, and have none of those artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. HavePaws ingredients.
The taste test.
The duffle bag story is true. You can't make that stuff up. To say that Katie and especially Waffles love these treats is an understatement. When Glogirly opened up a bag, the first thing she noticed was how yummy they smelled. Like real food.
And the treats look like real food. The jerky chips, available in Talkin' Turkey and Cheeky Chicken, are substantial and meaty. At first Glogirly broke them off into small pieces, but when Waffles grabbed a slab and ran she saw how much fun he was having tearing into the whole thing. He was able to easily chew and break off smaller pieces. It kept him occupied for a few glorious minutes while Katie was able to enjoy hers without fear of Waffles' food thieving tendencies.
The treats are reasonably priced at $4.99 for a 2 ounce bag and $6.99 for a 4 ounce bag. Shipping is free on all orders. We LOVE free shipping! There's no 'treat dust' in these bags... nothing but yummy, meaty goodness.

MOL - you made my HUMAN hungry with your description! But if I win these, I'm not sharing. Except maybe with Binga (not that I would have a choice).
ReplyDeleteWaffles must be part raven. That is all I have to say.
ReplyDeleteWaffles! You are a one mancat wrecking machine! I'm so proud (sniff, sniff). <3
ReplyDeletethey do look good,but not to many now Waffles we don't want you getting to cuddley ,xx Rachel and Speedy
ReplyDeleteWaffles, you're incredible ! What wouldn't you do for chicken ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteMy momma says pickin somefin we'd enjoy are da most important!
ReplyDeleteThose sound incredible! And they are easy to tear apart too!
ReplyDeleteWaffles, you are amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteYou made short worko f those treats Waffles.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
You need to set up a kittycam to catch Waffles breaking and entering!!
ReplyDeleteWaffles certainly gave those treats the claws, paws and teeth of approval!
ReplyDeleteImportant when choosing treats is price and, of course, that they're not full of harmful chemicals, preservatives, and fillers. Greenies reign supreme around here at the moment.
ReplyDeleteThose look like tasty treats that we hafta try!!
ReplyDeleteOhs , way cool, those treats look really nummy! You makes a great model too.
ReplyDeleteLuvs,
Rose ~ the almost grown up kitten
we LOVE that this are small batch and made in the US - we may have to have mom swing by the plant on her next trip to TN MOL
ReplyDeleteWe always try and get treats that are healthy and taste good. Gemini only likes the freeze dried chicken and Chey is a fishy flake fan (probably not so healthy, but you do what you can with Chey). Ichiro might like these!
ReplyDeleteThis might be just what I need to jumpstart Thunder's trick training!
ReplyDeleteThose look good enough for hoomans to eat. Oh boy, we want to try some of these treats.
ReplyDeleteAngel Normie, Mika, Sasha & Grady Lewis
That they are grain free as I have a cat with allergies. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteSue B
Well, if the treats are Waffles AND Katie approved, they must be good.
ReplyDeleteSo hard to find treats without a list of junk ingredients. The list for these jerky chips is great! I'm just afraid my cats might like them so much that they'll figure out how to join together and open the potato chip tin where I keep treats!
ReplyDeleteWaffles is a magician - when it comes to chicken. You need a hidden video camera to see how he managed that trick! The treats look amazing.

Wow! We are amazed at your treat thieving skills Waffles! You must share your secrets with us!
ReplyDeleteWe thought your belly was fat
ReplyDeleteSnorts,
Lily & Edward
I look for a flavor I think my cats will love and the treats have to be pretty healthy, too.
ReplyDeleteWe have to try them! I hope my cat Cheesecake loves them!
ReplyDeleteWe have to try them! I hope my cat Cheesecake loves them!
ReplyDelete<3 your cat's name!!! Haha
DeleteOooh, those do look yummy! I bet my kitty sister Pigeon would love them. She's a picky eater, so Momma just looks for whatever she'll EAT for a treat!
ReplyDeleteOooh, those do look yummy! I bet my kitty sister Pigeon would love them. She's a picky eater, so Momma just looks for whatever she'll EAT for a treat!
ReplyDeleteThose do look delicious - that is one of the most important things about treats! Also, my treats need to be made out of healthy stuff, not junky stuff.
ReplyDeleteOh Meow those look nomiliscious. We wuld fur sure luv to win those. Dat's just da kind of tweat we like. Weez never heard of this company but those awe gweat purrices. Have a pawsum day.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Lexi
Waffles dood...you're our hero! Amazing getting into that duffle!
ReplyDeleteThey look very yummy!! :) I look for meat being the first ingredient when choosing treats for my cat.
ReplyDeleteWell, since they are treats, the most thing I look for is that my cats really like them but, I am far from opposed to giving them treats that they love AND are good for them.
ReplyDeleteThose sure look like something we'd love to sink our teeth into@
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful to feed treats that they like and that are good for them but difficult to find! I'd love to try these.
ReplyDeleteTreats are no good if we don't like them, so we would say taste is important. Jan would say quality of ingredients.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds us of a few incidents around here, including the one a few years ago when Percy found Jan's stashes of cat and dog treats and helped himself!
I guess the most important part is whether they'll eat the treats, then how healthy they are.
ReplyDeleteAshton is drooling at the idea of that real chicken and turkey. These sound great!
ReplyDeleteI just try to steer clear of treats with artificial colors. Healthy treats is always a bonus!
ReplyDeleteHealthy treats as long as they have chicken in them.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have seen a video of Waffles stealing those treats :)
ReplyDeleteMy cats get all things that are healthy
ReplyDeleteThose look yummy. Mum gives me real chick-hen when she makes chick-hen for herself, we had chick-hen tonight.
ReplyDeleteI try to give my furbabies - both cats and dogs - food and treats that are healthy. I look for grain-free, quality protein products that are NOT made in China.
ReplyDeleteThese look lovely! I know a bunch of feral cats that would love to tear into there. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my dog, those look delicious. I bet Molly Mew would love them. She loves when ma makes us chickyum treats. She loves to share with me too. Just ask her!
ReplyDeleteI try to get treats that are healthy and taste good. I hope my cats think they taste good. I don't eat them☺.
ReplyDeleteThe ingredients are the most important, but I also want the treats to taste great for my pets.
ReplyDeleteWaffles you chicken beast you! To rip through a bag like that, they must be awesome. We gotta try em. Love the names too. Purrs, Greyson, Mr. Chivers, Tabitha & Chloe
ReplyDeleteThe treats need to be made in the US, grain free and low carb since my primary treat lover is a diabetic. This would be great to try!
ReplyDeleteThose treats look good. Waffles you need to teach all the other kitties your burglary skills. To get into a duffle bag that Glogirly has to use 2 hands to open and then get through a ziplock bag. Boy, do have some skills. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteInquiring minds wanna know if Glogirly took a nibble. Pop would prolly taste them but I wouldn’t. Best of luck to those who enter.
ReplyDeleteI try to make sure the treats I give my cats are healthy and something they will enjoy.
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of Waffles eating the treat!
ReplyDeleteIt's important that the products are made in the USA. I think that's healthier and supports America.

Mom looks for the best ingredients in our treats, or more importantly what isn't in them. We want taste and lots of it! ( Raine on RC buzzyngabe at yahoo dot com )
ReplyDeleteI like all meat treats for my big fluffy fellow. (Made in the USA)
