Our cats go all kinds of crazy cute over this tempting treat. If you want to bring out the adorable, the super cute, the absolutely most endearing behavior your cats have to offer, bust out these kitty treats. They will beg and beg for more.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'OK - WHAT\'S IN THESE TREATS?? I have to agree with the other reviews, I think it is some kind of special kitty crack. Yes, I know cats love (or most do) catnip, but this is insane. My little kitty turns into this loving, purring, ball of putty when I get out these treats. I think she would climb the tallest mountain in the fastest time catly possible just to get these treats.\nShe knows where I keep them and if I even go near that cabinet, she appears at my feet with the sweetest, sad-looking, big kitty eyes and you can almost hear her say "just one Mommy, just one treat" knowing full well I won\'t be able to stop with just one because they make her so happy. This is my new bribe! If I want her to cuddle on my lap, just shake the container. If I want her to come to me when I call her name, just shake the container. If I want her to dance on her back legs in a tutu, just shake this container. If I want her to eat all of the wet food in her kitty bowl, just mash up a couple of these catnip treats and sprinkle them on top of her food and she licks the bowl so clean you would think it\'s been through the dishwasher.\nShe likes the other flavors of Temptation Cat Treats, but that SPECIAL INGREDIENT in these Catnip Flavor treats make her go total crazy - in a good way. MARS PetCare I think you must be on to something special here because if there is more than Kitty Crack (Catnip) in these Temptations Cat Treats then you might have the next new secret cat-loving ingredient know to human-kind.\nMy cat strongly and highly RECOMMEND these Cat Treats!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I had one cat. She was a throwaway kitten that showed up at our mailbox one night crying from hunger. Of course we took her in and 9 years later she is the darling in the house. Turns out she is a Korat cat and beautiful. She decided to bring home a buddy, a male, (she's spayed) and he was about half starved and looked like he'd fought his way through the neighborhood. Of course he's ours now too. We call him Hobo. We feed them well and these treats are some of the best. They love them and definitely know the sound of the tab coming open. He has blossomed into quite the handsome male Tabby and loves us too. We always keep the Temptations on hand and will order more. Besides being a treat they are nutritious also."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "This is a very dangerous product. We have 5 cats and 2 dogs. All of them became sick after eating the treats vomiting and diarrhea. We threw everything that we purchased away it took us about a month since our first purchase to figure out it was these treats. Amazon was not able to refund everything we have paid for and said they would notify the appropriate party and try to put a hold on the product. Later on the call, we discovered that the manufacture's phone number is no where to be found. This is the main purpose for this review, to warn pet owners if they want to avoid expensive vet bills and to keep their pets safe since they can't tell us what's going on and by the time we people figure it out, it maybe too late. Good Luck!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Cats approve...we have one OLD kitty that this is all he wants to eat. So we toss in some powered enzymes, probiotics and some small grain free cat food and shake it all up and keep IN this container. The combo of all ingredients he is eating and happy! Grouchy Tom will prob have a few more years thanks to this nummy brand and I love bulk! We buy a few of these a month!!!!

I generally alternate one month with two 20 ounce containers: Salmon and one of the favorite guys.\n\nI have one kitty, Allie that I literally think must live off Temptations. She's very picky about her food. About the only thing she eats consistently are Temptations. Once I was out of town and not monitoring the situation!!! She by herself went through a 30 ounce jar in a month's time. She only weighs 7 pounds - that's almost 1/3 of her weight in treats - which is way too much!!!\n\nOther than the twice-daily small handful that each kitty gets - including Allie - they are fed Indoor Purina One dry food. They free eat. I just put two bowls out every morning. They also get - between the six of them - six cans of canned food. Usually it is Friskies Shreds. Sometimes we alternate with either Fancy Feast (or a store brand version of Fancy Feast) or Blue Buffalo. 3 - 4 tablespoons each of the canned food. Then three almost exclusively outdoor kitties get what's left.\n\nWe have very happy kitties. All of my kitties bless their hearts have lived to grand old ages. They have been very healthy other than teeth problems or occasionally arthritis as they reach advanced age. It's not unusual for them to live to 18 or 20 years old. Knock wood.\n\nI know my cats would get enough food with the dry food and a little bit of canned food they eat... but I like having the treats - especially with the mostly outdoor kitties. I'll go out and shake the jar and I'll come running. I know exactly where they are throughout the day. If we need to go to the vet or it's time for the flea meds I can round them up quickly.\n\nOnly complaint about Temptations are the 16 ounce square plastic containers: I hate those lids. The lid does not snap on securely. If the container turns over on the counter treats dump out everywhere. I usually buy either 20 or 30 ounce bags or large plastic jugs and then dispense into a jar with a secure lid for every day use..\n\nOk - who's who in the photos? Small blue gray is Gilligan age 2. Gray stripey is Nigel age 15. Calico is precious Allie age 4. Beautiful white Jasper is age 12. Yellow tabby sunbathers are Angel age 6 and Bodhi age 10. Orange cremesicle is weet Sammie - age 12.\n\nHappy catting! :-)"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have 3 cats. The male will eat anything, and it shows, but the two females can be picky, even the one I rescued from a charcoal pile. Maybe it's because they are girls? Who know. So, no surprise that my male cat loves these. But also, my youngest female cat (the one from the charcoal pile) does as well. 2/3 cats is a good start for my house.\n\nThe two female cats have feline herpes, so they have to get a lysine treat every day to help control the virus. The male cat gets one too, because he demands it. I keep all my cat treats in the same drawer in my vanity, and they all come running when the drawer opens. After they get their lysine treat, I'll usually scatter a few of these around as well, since I give it to them right before I leave for the day, and it makes me feel less guilty. The cat who doesn't like these gets a piece of freeze-dried salmon. The two cats gobble these up like they are starving, no matter when I get them. Then they all sniff around near the others to see if there is anything left over. There never is, even though they all make a mess of their food. Also, I used these to train my male cat to sit up and shake. It's very cute, and he enjoys the reward, if not the practice.\n\nI like the resealable container. I have left these out of the drawer before, and the cats will try to knock it around to get inside, but they cannot. I made the mistake of leaving a little bag of treats out, and they just chew through the bag. Great product."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I LOVE the Temptations brand. Not only is this brand of good quality at a reasonable price, but it is the only brand all my cats will eat! (Yes, they are spoiled rotten!) I tried the Catnip Bliss for the first time and my kitties LOVED THEM! My cats don't like the hard treat brands that seem to me more like regular dry cat food than treats. These Temptations have a crunchy outside and softer inside filling. I am so glad that this larger 16 oz. Value Size is available on Amazon as it gets expensive having to buy the individual packs. I don't give my 7 kitties treats very often, but when I do, I give them each a small handful. (Who can give your cat just 1?? SMILE) For example on the price: I can get this size for $7.49 - $7.99 (depending on the flavor). If you get the individual packets (TEMPTATIONS Classic Cat Treat Variety Pack), you get 6 - 3 oz. packs for $10.99 (Total of 18 ozs). So you get 2 oz. more for about $3.00 more. The only difference is that with the 6 pack, you can get 2 packs each of 3 flavors and with the value size it is just one flavor. But there are several different flavors available in the value size. Just depends on what you want. I am very happy with this purchase of the Value Size in both quantity, quality and price!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Oh my... The folks doing marketing and such for Temptations, they\'re hip folks! I couldn\'t resist handing over money for, "Tasty Human" flavored cat treats!\n\nThe cat here, he has bit and scratched me before, and I know, as the packaging for these treats states, that if it came down to it, and the cat were larger, he may try to bite off a finger or toe of mine. I showed this package to the cat, and his thoughts were, "Meat\'s meat, and a cat\'s gotta eat!". The cat then realized this was only Beef, Liver, and Chicken flavor.. But where is the liver from? Reading the ingredients, it\'s vague, the Liver Flavor is from, "Natural Flavors", whatever that is. It takes all kinds of critters to make Temptations, "Tasty Human" cat treats!\n\nWithin the box is a resealable pouch of the cat treats. There are 3 different colors, so this seems to be a blend of Chicken, Beef, and Liver flavored treats. So, each color is 1 of the 3 flavors, I am guessing. The cat ate them all, so, I guess they all taste human enough.\n\nCat approved, and yes, I will be keeping the box. One of the better 2021 Halloween season items I\'ve encountered, that\'s for sure!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "My cats love these waaaayyyyyyy too much in my opinion. Every night my babies chase me around and give me a million verbal reasons why I need to give them these treats right now til they wear me down, and I have to drop whatever I'm doing to oblige them or they won't leave me alone. I feel constantly harassed and have considered not buying these to liberate myself, but then my beautiful baby gives me the Puss-In-Boots look from the Shrek movie and my heart melts, so off I go to get the treats. May my home never be without these! And not just this variety, all of the have the same effect. No idea what they put in here but I wish food had the same ingredients. Now I find myself arguing with my cats all day long because they don't want to eat their food, just live on treats. Sigh.\n\nCaution: keep the container in a protected location, preferably under lock and key. Otherwise your cats will find them and help themselves at will. On the bright side, there'll be no mess for you to pick up, only the empty container will serve as evidence of the crime. Look for the satisfied, contented faces slumbering like angels and you'll know who the perps were. Case solved!"}]
