Feed them dry catfood. It keeps their teeth healthy.

You need to use an institutional sized cans, so you can fit larger cats in them.

My cat only eats dry cat food. No fish, chicken or anything that is not in the form of dry cat food. She only eats from a white bowl and will yowl for food standing 2 feet from a full bowl until I point her to it. I think she has no sense of smell and only recognizes food by sight so she only eats what she was given as a kitten, before I acquired her.

If it is like the cat I have a couple of decades ago, you will just have to try various brands until you find some the cat likes.

Our two kitties split a (small) can of Friskies in the morning. We also leave dry food (Iams) down all day & we give them assorted treats (Pounce, Meow Mix) on occasion (like every couple of hours). They prefer the pate style canned food to the shredded. But they’ll eat the shredded stuff if I mince it with a fork.

No, my kitties are NOT spoiled!

Friskies or Winn-Dixie canned and Purina Cat Chow (indoor formula) dry. My 3 chow it down.

My Manx will only eat dry food, he will walk away from any canned food. I have to feed him with one of the auto feeds that holds 3lbs of food because I will get woken up in the middle of the night if that bowl gets empty.

Dry food only for my catz. And they do sometimes get to clean the leftovers out of my sardine cans. Suprisingly, they don't care if it's in mustard, hot sauce, or oil, they clean the cans.

Just started getting Trader Joes dog food cans for my “goggiez”, which is great, and knowing TJ’s reputation for value and quality, I’d suggest trying their kitteh food!

One tabby will eat only dry food and a little milk with dinner.

One tabby will eat 1/2 can of anything, most table scraps, and dry food.

One Doxi will eat any left over cat food wet or dry, milk, table scraps and cat poop.

My cat is very picky and also allergic to fish. We feed him a mix of canned and dry: Buffalo Blue dry turkey & potato recipe and their canned turkey & chicken
entree. He likes both a lot, but favors the dry.

Google this:

“most expensive cat food”

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=most+expensive+cat+food&aq=1m&aqi=g1g-m3&aql=&oq=expensive+cat+foo&gs_rfai=

Then go buy all of it. One of each brand.

Your viking overlord kitties will secretly like some of it, but still will reject it all. But it is your job to subject yourself to their whims and go buy more.

Blue Buffalo is the only food I could find with no corn. It stopped the vomiting. Pet Smart carries it, and they run $5 off coupons in the Sunday paper occationally.

My cat is really old (16 years) and her entire life she ate dry food, until a few months ago. She seems to like the gravy in the canned cat food. Sorry, I don’t have any recommendations. I have the same question about canned food that you have.

Friskies Poultry Platter Classic Pate, canned, orange label
Friskies Turkey & Cheese Dinner in gravy, savory shreds, canned, purple label
Dry down 24 hours: Iams Healthy Naturals
Some of my cats eat only dry, some eat only the canned food, and some eat both.
They only have these three choices, and every one is healthy.

My Princess Kitty LOVES Tiki Cat canned food.

I mean absolutely LOVES it. It’s all natural, no grain, and the ones that say cutlets really are...with recognizable chunks of fish.
