Easy, Delicious, Effective

My littlest cat had a terrible time with traditional wet food. Her bowel movements were watery, messy, and miserable for her and for her humans. We tried every wet food under the sun (or so it felt!) and no matter what, within hours of taking even the smallest nibbles she was a mess and in need of a bath- not anyone's idea of fun. But with Viva Raw not only is she clean and regular, she's HAPPY! She looks forward to mealtimes again and can eat until her little belly is full without fear of digestive upset later.

Viva Raw gave the entire household peace of mind and a breath of relief knowing that everyone can enjoy their meals (and the stuff that comes after meals) without fear. I'm a full believer in the power and the results of feeding raw!

Love this food for my picky eater!

My puppy has been a picky eater since I adopted her at 13 weeks young. After many different food sources and proteins she finally decided she likes rabbit! She is a small breed and I think this being picky can be common amongst small breeds. She finally liked rabbit for a protein (which is great as it’s a cool protein and she is always warm) in another brand (air dried/freeze dried) so I went on a hunt for raw rabbit dog food. I’ve watched the owners of Viva on Dr. Judy Morgan’s website and then I found out they also have raw rabbit dog food!

After trying other raw foods and my picky eater wouldn’t eat them, I found out you can gently cook this food and voila, it worked! She loves her rabbit food now that she is almost a year old I am mixing with their puppy formula as well. I’m so, so happy we found this brand! Thank you for your great customer service and food choices! Please keep up the good work.

My dogs love it

I have been feeding raw for 19 years. I like the grind size. It’s not just mush. My puppy is intrigued with the chunks.

I will be ordering more

The best!

I've tried everything for my dogs: (so-called) high-quality kibbles, fresh dog food, and another raw food company. Far and away, I like the ingredients, selection, and results of Viva Raw best. I started my new Cocker on the Beef/Turkey puppy recipe last week and she loves it. I've noticed a significant improvement in her stools, as well. No issues with the transition. Go Viva go!

Cat-New to Raw

My 1 yr old orange tabby Boo Boo so far loves the Beef and chicken best! Excited for the rest for him to try! I added a little Nutritional yeast as a topper! As a first time customer the rep texted me promptly to reassure me of my order! The packaging was impressive and solidly frozen-Thank You for this easy transition to raw❣️

my cats love it

my cats love this food. i was worried they weren’t going to at first because the smell is not as strong as canned food. But they love it!! They actually prefer it over anything else now. Thank you Viva!

Absolutely love viva!

We stared our kitten Kepler 32b on it at about 4 months and he loves it. We love the ingredients and how well he's been doing on it. Our other cat Dusty, who was under weight due to stress before coming home with us, has started putting on good weight and also loves his Viva. We can tell a huge difference in both boys coat quality and how they smell, they smell like little gent's BTW lol. Over all we've been super pleased with Viva and they have always done right by us and our cats.

My kitten loves it!!

The cattery I got my Carl from told me about Viva's raw pet food. I was excited to try it out. My Carl is used to a raw diet; I’ve been giving him freeze-dried raw food, and while it is shelf-stable, the moisture in the frozen food, especially Viva Raw pet food, is different in a good way. My Carl happily cleans the bowl. He loves the rabbit. I hope Viva can offer pork as well. My Persian/ exotic long-haired fur baby loves pork. I'm going to feed him the duck blend tomorrow. I honestly love this for my kitten- highly recommend

Cat loves it

I’m a week into the change from canned food. My 7-year-old cat runs home at dinner time and his energy level is higher. Time will tell, but his needs are definitely met.

My cats refuse anything else 😂

Hugo and Samara are one year old and were raised on Viva. Their long, beautiful coats are feathery light and shimmer in the sun!

I have always had good experiences with the customer service team as well - They’ve always addressed my concerns promptly! Happy cats, happy dad.

Easy ordering and the cats like the food

I decided to order as I need and not subscribe. Ordering is easy. The food is packed in 1 pound sealed bags that are frozen. Shipping is fast. My husband likes playing with the dry ice. I like that the box and packing materials are mostly cardboard/paper. I have two cats and they eat almost a pound every two days. The cats each weigh between 6-7 pounds. I take a new bag out to thaw in the refrigerator every other morning and it's ready to use by the next morning. I like how easy it is compared to the freeze dried raw brand we were using before. The cats transitioned very well from the other brand of freeze dried raw to Viva Raw. The cats really love the food, we have tried five meat options that they generally offer: beef, turkey, chicken, rabbit, and duck. They seem to like all five options, I can't tell that they like one any more than the other. I can't afford to buy Viva for the dog, but she likes to lick the spoon. We are happy with Viva for cats.

My dogs thrive on Viva.

While my dogs thrive on the Viva complete and balanced meals, there are other reasons I subscribe as well: good range of proteins and extra seasonal proteins, venison and bison so far; wonderful, informative and easy to navigate website; reliable, convenient and flexible delivery; excellent customer service. Oh, and the occasional free gifts are great too. Thank you Viva for your thoughtful and knowledgeable approach to my dogs' health and well being.

Best Raw Food

I started feeding my dogs raw food many years ago & my dogs (who are rescued) have always thrived on it. I’m always looking to get the most nutritionally complete & balanced diet, esp when I got my new puppy at 2 month old (my soon to be service dog) I needed a raw food made especially for puppies. Viva Raw is the one my vet & I chose together & I’m now feeding it to my 6 1/2 yr old Golden & my now 14 month old puppy. They both love the food, I love the nutrition & the conscience of the food too. I’ve never had better service than I’m having with Viva & will be a lifetime customer, highly recommended!

So excited to see the effects!

I have the pickiest cat on planet Earth that would refuse even wet food. I had always wanted to move her to raw but it was a shot in the dark on if she’d even ever eat it. The first day, I gave her a piece, and she ate it so quick!
Viva is the best! My first package got lost in the mail and they sent me another for free. Customer service is exceptional and the brand is super personable. They are also very transparent. I love looking at their IG to learn more about how the food is made and what is added to it.

From the bottom of my (and Wilma’s) heart, THANK YOU VIVA 💜✨

I feel good feeding this!

Went raw and stopped feeding all that other crap to my two cats. They let me know when it's time to eat so they must love it!

Great customer service. They replied to my question quickly and solved my issue. I’m so happy I found Viva and my pup loves the beef & turkey for puppies.

Cat loved it

My cat loved the raw beef! But unfortunately it seems like he developed an allergy to it and started throwing up every time I fed it to him. I chatted back and forth via email with a representative and I am very happy with the customer service despite the fact that the beef didn’t work out. I am hoping to try poultry or rabbit next.

Saved my kitty's health!

Before switching to VIVA, my cat was struggling with bladder stones and constant UTIs. Veterinarians were recommending a urinary diet, but the ingredients list on those were terrible and I knew that diet would negatively impact her health. Since switching to VIVA around 6 months ago, she has had no more issues. Her energy and overall health have improved, and her coat is also softer. I can honestly say that VIVA saved her life and probably has added years to her life as well.

We love Viva!

We have been feeding our cats Viva for just over a month now and have been very happy with the quality of the food. It is packaged very well and always arrives completely frozen. To top it off, all of our cats absolutely love the food and we have not had any problems introducing Viva into their diet. This includes my 16 year old cat that is the pickiest eater on the planet! He now prefers Viva to any other food, which says a lot! 🥰 Thank you from Thomas, Herbie and Sam.

Research pays off!

After a ton of research into feline nutrition in an effort to solve two very different problems for two very different cats, the only solution I could come up with was raw. Shockingly, although I live in a big city, the number of pet stores that carry cat food that’s raw are very few. That being said, I stumbled on Viva raw and they are amazing. It’s not a subscription if you don’t want it to be. It’s not only chicken which the subscription services tend to be. And although there’s a moment where I think about Rudolph, the red nose, reindeer, my cats really loved the special reindeer they did last year. We stick with the things that they like I order as necessary and it’s perfect. The cats love it and in the space of I’m going to say nine or 10 months the bulk of that digestion problems have been solved. If you’re looking at nutrition, alone, raw is the way to go and the nice people here are fantastic.

Proof that Viva cleans teeth.

I believed the hype that hard food was better at cleaning teeth so I had some concern that the soft food would require more dental maintenance. But Ivy had tartar on her canine teeth even with home care. So since that is disappearing, I have become a believer. So while raw food is more expensive than kibble, she won't need sedation, cleaning and the antibiotics. That's a win on multiple levels.

Super food for super dogs!

I've been feeding raw for over 15 years and VivaRaw since shortly after they started a few years ago. It is THE BEST food I've found for my Golden Retrievers. I show and have multiple Champions. I usually take my dogs to the shows so they can room with me as handlers seldom have storing capacity for raw and that's all I want them fed! Great food and wonderful owners & customer service. Puppies start on Viva around 5 weeks of age and they love it, too.

FABULOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I have two kitties I am trying to convert to raw, and it's been a struggle. I have not been able to use up my original order of Viva Raw, and in the interim, I moved from a place where I had a normal sized kitchen and normal freezer, into a 400 sq ft apartment with a CLOSET for a kitchen and literally no freezer space. Between the move, and with a mother in hospice care, I failed to cancel or delay my next order of Viva! This morning I saw the charge come through on my credit card and I panicked! I was at work in my medical clinic and couldn't place a phone call to the company, so I emailed and texted them immediately. I was then able to use their live chat. An agent came on with me and INSTANTLY responded by canceling my order and refunding my purchase to my credit card! I don't know why I expected a "fight," but I did: I think because customer service has declined in quality so much in recent years. This is what customer service SHOULD be like! Thank you, Viva Raw! I'll let you know when I've figured out next steps!
