Target Pet Box for Cats May 2019 Review
Here is the info sheet for the box. We also got a coupon for $5 off a $20 pet purchase, which I will definitely be putting to use!
Sheba Perfect Portions Cuts in Gourmet Chicken and Tuna Entrée, 2 servings – Retail Value $0.85
I use wet food more as a treat for Duchess than as a meal replacement because she is dainty and better at portion control than I am. Even though one pod is considered one serving, Duchess only eats a little bit at a time and likes to come back for seconds and thirds with large chunks of time in between. That doesn't really work for wet food, but she enjoyed tasting this grain-free blend of chicken and tuna (plus I like that chicken and chicken broth are the first two ingredients on the list!).
Sheba Meaty Tender Sticks With Chicken, 5 treats – Retail Value $1.59
These meat sticks are dairy and grain free, and I like that the first three ingredients are chicken, pork, and pork liver. Duchess was more interested in rubbing her chin against these and playing with them, but when I looked away I definitely caught her nibbling out of the corner of my eye.
Temptations Treats for Cats, 1.7 oz – Buy the 3 oz bag for $1.59
Duchess actually isn’t a huge fan of treats (I would give more to her if I actually knew she would eat them), but she gave these a few sniffs. To be honest, I’m glad she didn’t love these - the first three ingredients are chicken by-product meal, ground corn, and animal fat.
Friskies Party Mix in Original Crunch, 2.1 oz - Retail Value $1.59
These are another snack that Duchess sniffed but didn’t deign to eat (I guess I asked for this when I named her Duchess), and while I like that these help to clean your cats teeth these have another ingredients list I am not psyched about- top ingredients include animal fat and corn gluten meal, though chicken meal is the first ingredient.
Blue Buffalo For Cats Dry Food Chicken and Brown Rice, 4 oz – Buy a 3-pound bag for $11.99
Blue Buffalo is actually what I exclusively feed Duchess, though I usually reach for the grain-free hairball control version due to her fluff. This is actually the exact version that my mom feeds her cats, though, and whenever I take Duchess home that is what she eats with no complaints. Whenever people meet Duchess they almost always compliment how soft her fur is, and I think a big part of that is the high quality of Blue Buffalo food- the first three ingredients in this one is deboned chicken, chicken meal, and fish meal (for those Omega 3’s!).
Blue Buffalo Kitty Cravings Crunchy Cat Treats with Chicken, 2 oz – Retail Value $1.99
I am stoked that there are TWO Blue Buffalo products included in this box- and these treats were the clear winner, with Duchess happily eating them after giving them a few sniffs. I really appreciate that I can pronounce all of the ingredients in these treats (and know what they all are!), and the first three ingredients are deboned chicken, chicken meal, and brown rice.
The Verdict: I am happy with this pet box from Target. Sheba was a new brand to me and I liked their ingredients, and I am always happy to see Blue Buffalo for Duchess! The retail value for everything except the Blue Buffalo food and the Temptations Treats was $6.02, but I think the value for the remaining two puts it over the $10.00 cost of the box. If this is a box you’re interested in, Target usually discounts these boxes at the end of the month and currently, this box is available for $7.00.
To Wrap Up:
Can you get this box if you sign up today? Yes, as of publication, this box is still available (and it is on sale for $7!)
Value Breakdown: This box costs $10 + free shipping, which means that each of the 6 items in the box has an average cost of $1.67.
