Debbie, I don't mean to be sarcastic but it really depends on the issues the cat has or doesn't have. For my CRF kitty I am looking for the lowest phosphorus food she'll eat. Cats with sensitive systems really need grain free foods. For most cats a high quality canned food is usually best. High quality doesn't necessarily mean highest price. You can go to www.petfooddirect.com and find the ingredients for most canned and dry foods. I avoid anything with garlic/onions or designer ingredients. Many companies are adding ingredients that people take for various health issues without testing to see the impact on cats. For this reason I avoid any food with cranberries. I expect the 1st few ingredients to be a protein in the form of a meat. I avoid any food where the first or second ingredient is a grain. Cats are carnivores not herbivores. All that said I feed my CRF kitty whatever she will eat. Today it was Fancy Feast. Yesterday it was Friskies. She refuses to eat any of the renal diets or any of the so called 'high quality' foods.
