The 9 Best Wet Cat Foods Reviewed
There’s no denying just how much our cats enjoy delicious wet food, but it can be tough to separate the good from the bad in such a saturated market.
Some brands fill their wet cat food varieties with lots of by-products and fillers, make them less than ideal for your cat’s digestive system.
Thankfully, we’ve taken on the hard work for you, and found a few canned options that offer high quality products suited to your cat’s specific needs and tastes.
The 9 Best Wet Cat Foods
9. Fancy Feast Gravy Lovers Cat Food Variety Pack
First on our list is a popular product from Fancy Feast. It’s one of the best canned foods you can get (otherwise it wouldn’t be on this list!) and here are the Cliffs notes:

- A great taste your kitty will love
- Complete and balanced nutrition
- Very good for your furry friend, again buyers have commented on their cats having shinier, silkier coats after using this food.
8. Meow Mix Seafood Selections Variety Pack
Meow Mix might have my favorite name of any of these brands, and fortunately their product isn’t half bad either.

Remember that a cat’s health is the main thing to consider, so don’t be afraid to buy something a little bit more premium. Canned food might cost more, but you’ll save money on vet bills in the long run.
