Hi and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Sheba brand is a slightly better formula than the Friskies and 9 lives. It may also be that the Sheba brand food is more palatable to her than the others. Like people, cats can have variable tastes so it may be that she just prefers this brand over the others.
