Friskies Shreds Gravy Variety Pack vs 9Lives Paté Favorites Wet Cat Food Variety Pack

Both are budget adult wet foods with strong owner ratings, so the choice comes down to texture and pack size. Friskies Gravy Shreds gives you 24 cans of shredded meat in gravy across beef, chicken, and turkey and cheese, which suits cats that prefer gravy and variety. 9Lives Paté Favorites is a 12-can pack of smooth paté in chicken, tuna, and mixed flavors, and paté tends to be easier for cats with dental issues to eat. Reviewers of both brands report cats eating them readily; neither is a premium or grain-free formula.

• Choose the Friskies Gravy Shreds if your cat likes shredded meat in gravy and you want a larger 24-can pack with more flavor switching.
• Choose the 9Lives Paté Favorites if your cat prefers smooth paté or has trouble chewing, and a smaller 12-can pack fits your rotation better.
