    I’m trying to find the best wet cat food for three cats without spending too much. Has anyone found a brand that stays affordable but still keeps everyone happy and healthy?

    If you’re trying to keep costs down, I’ve had good luck with “Purina ONE” and “Fancy Feast Classic Pâté”. They seem to offer decent quality without being too expensive, especially if you buy multipacks. I also stock up when they’re on sale, which helps a lot when feeding multiple cats. Hopefully you find something that works well for all three of your cats!

    We’ve had good luck buying larger packs when they’re an offer and mixing wet food with a bit of dry food. It keeps costs down without any complaints from the cats! The trick seems to be finding something they’ll actually eat consistently rather than constantly trying new brands. 🙂

    We use the Fancy Feast Classic Pate also and in addition to a sprinkle of Forti flora or Inaba in the sticks but clearly not the whole tube since we want them to get the benefits of the food. We were feeding Friskies along with a much better food but we got to where friskies was upsetting some digestive tracs. We feed 7 cats and so we do understand the high cost and especially since foods have increased in cost.

    We have used the dry kibble that they like real well by adding warm water or no salt chicken broth and letting the kibble absorb it, then add soft food to that.

    I hope you have this figured out but if not perhaps this may help
