But, for me, my cats are all strays I took in, and I try to find a balance between a decent quality food and price. Decent enough that the food itself is not likely to cause health problems. For me, this includes that the company is big enough to be able to invest in quality control and nutrition, so I have tended to stick with Iams and Science Diet. Purina (One and Pro Plan) aren't bad options, either (several vets over time have agreed). Royal Canin isn't bad, either, but there have rarely been deals (going back 15+ years) that bring the price down enough for me to choose Royal Canin.
Science Diet is the best of the 3 - and it posts more complete nutritional info for its foods on its website, including more precise phosphorus content. I switch to Science Diet options with lower phosphorus as cats get older, due to the higher risk of kidney disease in cats.
Prices, especially on Science Diet cans, have gotten ridiculous lately, though - although that's across the board for all foods.
Prices now are high enough that it's relatively cheap to occasionally cook up a little ground beef or chicken and give that to them - I do this instead of buying 'treats'. (Treats are about the least healthy thing you can give to your cats). I wouldn't feed this as a high percentage of their diet because they need the nutrients that are added.
A little cooked meat, without anything added - no salt, no seasonings, absolutely no onion or garlic - makes a great treat. You can freeze the cooked meat in a plastic bag and then take small amounts out to thaw and feed your cats. Spread the meat out in a thinner layer when you put it in the freezer, and it's easier to break off small amounts.
Thank you for helping strays!
I can't imagine how much that adds up, especially Science Diet!
If you live near a Costco, look into the Costco Kirkland branded dry cat food for your strays. It actually rates decently. Yes, it does contain grains & yes, cats are obligate carnivores. But the brands you mentioned all also contain grains in their dry foods. The Kirkland food is priced well & overall has good ingredients.
I made 2 orders and the coupon worked on both orders

Kudos for taking in some strays. However, being misguided should not be a point for pride when it comes to nutrition.
People can pay very close to the price of grocery store brands with a little shopping and buy better-than-average foods instead. Chewy's American Journey, for example.

Chewy and Amazon have the same deal, if people prefer other stores/deal groupings.
