Do you have questions about which human foods are safe to give your cat? Petco has the answer to this & other feline diet questions.
I don't normally recommend Meow Mix, as it's a very low-quality food with lots of fillers, artificial dyes, etc. I'm not sure what's available in Jordan, but if possible, I would prefer Iams, Purina, or Royal Canin - you can see if your local pet store carries these brands, or order them online or through your veterinary clinic if needed.

I think Friskies is the slightly better diet. You can also feed a combo of wet and dry, most cats enjoy some variety. You may also look at Purina, they produce a nice food and tend to be less expensive than some of the other foods. Please post again if you have any further questions!
Great question! When a cat food costs more, its' because of the ingredients used in the food. Meow Mix likely has better quality ingredients than Friskies (but not as good as the higher priced foods like Royal Canin), and owners typically are very concerned with feeding their pets the best quality food they can afford. That would be my guess as to why Meow Mix is the most popular food on Amazon even though there is a cheaper option. 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 Boop by Petco and good luck with your new cat!
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.
