My cats used to love the Fromm's shredded chicken, which they discontinued a couple of years ago for unknown reasons. After much searching, we found that my cats will eat the Sheba domes (more as a treat), which also has shredded meat and chunks of fish meat. now they are discontinuing that too. they will eat the chicken and beef Fancy Feast appertizers, but not much else. I am at a lost as to finding good alternatives. Any suggestions?

I give my Chester Cheetah Nutro Max Cat or Natural Choice Cat canned with his dry diet. They have chunks with sauce, not necessarily shredded but the chunks aren't too big. There are also several choices. Chester is partial to a few different ones. I think his favorite is the Max Cat Seafood Tomato Bisque, he is a fancy boy!


Good luck!

If you can find it, Almo Nature is shredded. My cats love it, especially for Schweppie (who is supposed to be eating Rx food but I give him a treat once in a while) who is the pickiest cat. It's just chicken and broth really. They have a chicken breast and chicknen drumstick formula! They also have ones with pumpkin and salmon. I like it because they have little extraneous ingredients.

The orange can(Harvest sunrise chicken and pumpkin) of Soulistic is also shredded. Mine love it.

Have you tried 9 Lives shredded cat food? Not the best stuff in the world but it is shredded and cats seem to love it. It is an option to see if your cats will eat it. The best food isn't any good if your cats won't eat it. Mine prefer the cheap stuff over most grain free. They will really only eat the Soulistic when it comes to more expensive canned foods. Honestly the best food for a cat is what the owner likes, what they can afford, and most important, what the cat will eat. Honestly, I would feed 9 Lives if it was all my cats would eat.

When I was feeding canned food....the favorite here was the Tiki shredded chicken varieties.  I really liked Tiki.....but many of them have fish, and not all are grain free, so I only used a couple of them.  Earthborn Holistic is also nice....but again, all but the chicken one have fish.  Weruva is good, but not as much meat, and more gravy....Soulistic has the same issue.  Unfortunately, almost everything out there has carrageenan, or some other ugly ingredient(s)....which pushed me to raw.  Based on results.....I can't imagine ever going back to canned.  Canned, however, is WAY better than dry.
