I have an old cat with few teeth. Are these soft, easy to chew?

No, they are hard and crunchy (they are hard to the touch and sound crunchy when she's eating them), which is probably one way they clean the teeth. There are some soft treats out there but not Greenies.

No, they are not. In fact, that crunchiness seems to be intentional so that the texture helps clean the cat's teeth. Perhaps if you moistened them first with a tiny dr of water and let the, rest a minute before giving them to your cat ? ? ? I haven't tried this though.

No, I would not at all recommend them. For cats that love & can handle the crunch, they're fantastic. You may want to try another all natural brand for her comfort & digestion.

They're more on the crunchy side so they can clean the cat's teeth (sort of). My cat loves these things but she's young and has her teeth.

These are not soft treats. Our Feline GREENIES® have a crunchy texture which helps reduce tartar and plaque build-up. Thanks for asking.

No in my opinion. Very hard & dry. My 4 yr old would not eat & she loves treats. Very Disappointedin product

They are pretty soft. If you press them with your finger they crumble. I love them! My old guy is getting around great after being on them!

They are hard, but not as hard as a raw hide. My 10 year old carries it around for awhile, and then eats it in one sitting.

Yes, they are very hard in order to clean their teeth. My cats manage fine with them, but maybe try Feline Greenies instead.

They are pretty durable unless you have a cat that likes to chew. Although I wouldn't buy from this seller after my last experience.

They are soft and chewy for my old girl Ling Ling I break them in half. Ling Ling is missing a few teeth. My youngster at 5yrs Merlin gets 5 pcs am and 5 pcs pm he has weak hip bone.

They're pretty hard. I can break them into tiny pieces with my fingers and drop them into the food bowl. My stinky cat eats them, but another non-stinky cat won't eat them (but then, he only likes cheese for treats). So, if your cat won't eat them as treats, you might try crumbling them and putting them on his/her food.

They aren't soft but not extremely hard either. Sometimes I split them in half when giving multiple treats and they break easily so it could be something you could crumble up for your puppy. I hope that helps.

Yes they are soft. We have 2 dogs that much prefer the softer treats opposed to the milk bone type treats. We have been using them for at least 5 years. Hope that helped. Randy L.

Yes, they are relatively soft. They're not like the rock hard mass produced ones we were buying before we found these. We have a very old Jack Russell and a middle aged Yorkie (who has had dental work for bad teeth) and they have no problem with them. The treats are in varying sizes, some quite large, but we cut them up into bite size pieces.

I've a 4 pound Pom whose 12 this year. Looks young and very healthy but lost jaw teeth to neglect before we met at the pound 5 years ago. Would these be easy for him to chew without too much discomfort?

Well, I don't know how you describe "easily" but these definitely are chewable and break into pieces by an average cat. He loved the toy for 10 minutes--until he chewed it and then pieces broke off. I took the toy away and it's in the trash. I wish I could find metal ones...

These are very small heart shaped soft chews. A small dog would have no problem chewing them. My dog loves them

No, they are "hard", but dissolve in your mouth... I'm an older fella and don't have any teeth at all. I just like them because I can suck on a few and they keep me from having "dry mouth". Alot of the medications I take make my mouth dry, and they prevent this... All I can say is that I like them.

They are a very soft chew & quite sweet. I find it easier to eat one with a meal for digestion as i have an adverse reaction to corn syrup that is in the chew...but that is my gut of course. I notice a previous comment mentions frig storage...that's a choice but the instructions are to keep at "room temperature"...just sayin'

I'd say they're mostly just chewy. Not too hard or soft. If you put them in liquid (I like to make overnight oats and put these in) then they will get very soft.

Will they hold up? I think they would for a bit but not sure how long. Another item to take into consideration is that they are not regular strings but instead made of plastic. My cats are also chewers but after one or two chomps they gave up on these because I assume it was a texture they did not like.
