From searching the internet, I have found these brands being mentioned the most:
Wellness, Evolve, “Innova Evo”, Blue buffalo, Nature’s Variety, Merrick, and Avoderm.
>>Ok yes, they all seem to be healthy, but what is the BEST one for my money?
>>Do you know of any better ones?
>>AND: is “Innova Evo” one brand, or two seperate brands?

I live in the fox valley area of Illinois, and there is a ‘Healthy Pet Boutique’ right down the street from my home, and they have all the best natural, healthy foods for dogs and cats. If you’re too far from Aurora, IL you could go online to their website and check everything out for yourself. The prices aren’t bad for the quality you’re getting.

I recommend this place to anybody who has a cat or dog they really want to take care of.
I hope this helps.
Innova EVO is a variety of a brand. Innova has a ‘regular’ formula, and the EVO one which is grain free. Same thing with the others – there is a Blue Buffalo Spa Select and Wilderness, Wellness and Wellness Core, and Merrick and Merrick BG (Before Grain). Many of the premium foods have a regular and grain free formulation available.
All of these are great brands, and there is no reason why you must choose one and only one. If feed mostly canned, and rotate among several premium brands, including Wellness, EVO, the Blue Wilderness, and Merrick. Your cats may prefer one of these over the other, and you won’t shortchange them no matter which you pick.
