In my opinion, yes. i have been recommending Orijen for cats and dogs for many years, the ingredients are extremely high quality, it contains a lot of meat and it's grain free, you can't do better than that.

Wellness, Weruva and Royal Canin are all good choices. When it comes to a canned food, look for one with a named protein source of animal (not plant) origin. Choose a food that comes from the can looking like a hockey puck. Avoid foods with gravies or sauces. These are typically higher in carbs which can predispose a cat to obesity. Avoid meat meals, by-products as well as store or discount brands. These latter two contain low quality ingredients and more fillers.

The single pouches are meant to be single serve per cat, and it gives the cat fresh wet food each time as opposed to the larger canned food that must be stored in the fridge if all of it isn't used at once. By a cost comparison, the pouches will be more expensive, so it's fine for you to give Wilkie and Orieo the half a can of the wet food instead. Brands I recommend including Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I hope this helps :-)

Either kind of wet cat food is fine to feed. Your new cat may have his or her own preferences so you may want to buy both types and see which kind is preferred. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and good luck with your new cat!

If you are concerned about food sensitivities or allergies, feed one exclusively (no treats, just the food) for a minimum of 6-8 weeks. Then do the same for the other. Choose the food that Sweetie does best on. If she tolerates both, choose the one she likes best and is easiest for you to buy.
