Ingredients & Nutritional Information
We start with wild-caught tuna and bonito flakes as the foundation of every Inaba Churu Tuna & Bonito Flakes Cat Treat. The ingredient list remains simple: tuna, bonito extract, natural flavors, and essential vitamins including vitamin E to support your cat’s immune system.
Each 0.5 oz tube contains fewer than 10 calories, making these treats ideal for cats on controlled diets or those needing portion management. The high-moisture formula delivers approximately 91% water content, contributing to your cat’s daily hydration needs. Protein content reaches 7% minimum on a guaranteed analysis basis, supporting lean muscle maintenance without unnecessary fillers or by-products.
Feeding Instructions & Daily Recommendations
We recommend feeding Churu treats as a supplement to your cat’s regular diet, not as a meal replacement. For adult cats, offer one to two tubes per day depending on size and activity level.
You can serve these treats three ways: squeeze directly into your cat’s mouth for hand-feeding, apply as a topper over wet or dry food, or spread inside a lick mat for extended enjoyment. The resealable tube maintains freshness between servings, and the pliable packaging makes it easy to control portion size. Always provide fresh water alongside treats, though the moisture-rich formula already supports hydration goals.
Quality Standards & Manufacturing
Our Commitment to Safety
Every batch of Churu treats undergoes rigorous testing at our Thailand facility, where we maintain strict adherence to international pet food safety standards. We source tuna and bonito from trusted fisheries and process ingredients in a temperature-controlled environment to preserve nutritional integrity.
Our manufacturing process uses human-grade standards for handling and packaging. Each tube receives individual quality inspection before distribution, and we track lot numbers for full traceability. The result is a treat you can feel confident offering your cat every day, backed by decades of Inaba’s expertise in premium pet nutrition.
