Are lickable treats low carb?

[Howiesmom]

Are any of the lickable treats like Churu and Delectables low carb? I want to infuse something new into Howie’s world as it’s just full of ear pokes, pills, and injections these days. And if anyone knows of any that don’t have gums or carageenan, that would be great as he is very sensitive to them. Thank you!

As far as I know yes, but you can always look it up on Chewy as usually someone has asked that question and there’s an answer listed.

I wrote to Hartz and inquired about Delectables Squeeze Ups. Chicken flavored. I recently found these in our local Walmart. And can share both cats love them. Which made me think they are too carby for my sugar boy. Here is what they shared...

The additional nutritional information on the Hartz Delectables Cat Treats is as follows

The Phosphorus is approximately 0.14%. So based on a 40 g pouch there is approximately 0.056 g Phosphorus in the 40 g serving. They also contains 1.92% Carbohydrates and salt content is 0.6%
Unfortunately, cholesterol content is not something we test for in our products, therefore we do not have these values available. They recommend they only be given as a treat.

I haven’t! Any kinds/brands you recommend?

Anything that is just protein with no seasonings like onion. I buy Gerber turkey, chicken, or ham. They make beef too. I mix it with a little water to thin it out

Tyler loved the Gerber ham. They are called Sitter 2nd foods

Thanks! That's close to the product I was asking about too the other day. I called Purina on the back of the packaging abt their Hartz Delectable Broths, Stews, Bisques, etc. along with their Fancy Feast Broths and they couldn't give the info to me straightaway, but took my contact info to get back to me (perhaps bc of the weekend or to brush me off, idk).

Good luck with that. I went through that with Fancy Feast and never heard back from anyone even after speaking with a supervisors!
