Looking for VERY soft cat food - maybe a jelly

I have a sick cat who is struggling wit her food. I've moved to pate - but sometimes even that is often challenging. She will take a bit of the jelly from pouches - but no bits. I can't seem to find any all-jelly or similar options - anybody know of anything?

My cat likes pets at home luxury mousse, you could add some water to make it runny.

She did eat some mousse tonight so mousse is good. Oh - the liquid food looks really good thanks.

Thanks all. Yes she's under vet care and on steroids but it's Sat in the village and didn't seem like an out of hours call issue. She did not like the prescription food at all (wet or dry) but I'll ask if they have a prescription soup. She won't have the pate now (that she loved last week...) - but she did eat a couple of pouches of Felix cat soup and I got some little moussey looking treats to try. Bone broth coming tomorrow. We know she has IBD and/or cancer so we are almost certainly on a downhill slope here.

Oh I'm so sorry. This happened to my little girl but they couldn't work out what the matter was except for an enlarged liver. I ended up hand feeding her freshly cooked cod just to get her to eat (as it had a lot of moisture too) so she had strength during her chemo/steroid months in the hopes that she would eventually recover. Looking back I really shouldn't have done it, she was utterly miserable.

I hope your furbaby does recover and just needs that extra bit of help during this time❤

I don't know what they put in that Felix soup but she really likes that. And her sister - who is rather fat - is being driven insane by all the 'treat' food she's not allowed to have.

@Pixiedust1234 It is just so hard knowing when to stop. I have been there before though - so just hoping to keep her going while she's still alert and has quality of life. (I recall poaching white fish for a previous cat - but this one it has to be more liquid.)
