Best canned wet cat food packs under $20

Top pick: Purina Friskies Gravy Shreds 24-pack — it's the only true 24-can case here, so it lands closest to what you asked for, and Friskies is the brand most cats actually eat without a fuss. Gravy shreds suit cats that turn their nose up at pâté.

Who the others suit:

• 9Lives Paté Favorites 12-pack — the cheapest way to try a variety; pâté is easiest for kittens and seniors to lap up.
• Friskies variety 12-packs — best if you want to test flavours before committing to a case.
• ZIWI and Weruva cans — for a fussy cat or one on a grain-free, high-meat diet; sold by the single can, so you'd buy 24 individually.
• Tuna Tuesday 12-pack — a fish-forward treat rotation rather than a staple.

Note: the 12-packs are half a case, so two of them gets you to 24.
