I will add to the list that Scrumbles has a new shredded chicken in tins.
My cat Biggles has been devouring it.
He also likes the chunks in jelly by Scrumbles.
You can get Scrumbles and Blink in Sainsburys superstores & Pets at Home.

Blink & Meowing Heads in Waitross.
Meowing Heads is more of a mushy pate than a traditional pate. It is very liquid.
 
Also forgot to ask has anyone tried the edgard cooper wet food?
Yes, I bought Edgar & Cooper a few times from their website and Pets at home also has some varieties.
Only one of my two ate the chunks in gravy but both ate the pate.
I mash the pate up with a fork.

About topping to entice eating, Thrive freeze dried treats or Cosma snackies from Zooplus are good.
 
Felix doubly delicious contains vegetable protein and various sugars.
Neither of which a cat needs and are cheap fillers. They are likely to be less filling than meat protein.

I would try to wean him onto jelly food without sugar. Scrumbles is an option for tins in Jelly without sugar.
He may also like the shredded chicken in broth by Scrumbles.
Pets at Home or Sainsburys carry Scrumbles.

Edgar and Cooper have chunks in gravy that are sugar free - it can be bought on the website ( without subscription) or at Pets at Home.

Lilys Kitchen I think was also mentioned as an option for gravy. They have shreds in gravy that I have seen in Sainsburys and Waitross. Also on Zooplus I think.

As mentioned, Thrive available many places or Cosma ( Zooplus) are good toppers to entice eating.

How old is he?
Cats can become set in their ways about food but hopefully, he will like some of the better options.

My cats as my OH says, are feed a rolling buffet.
I try to have something out for them overnight or when I go out.

Fresh meal in the morning and whenever they ask in the day if I am around.
Their body condition is good.
I feed only wet food and raw.

Hi,
You could try a 70 gram tin in his mix when you are ready to add another food.
Edgar and Cooper is good but best to have two or three brands in your rotation.
Just in case, recipies change, food boredom or something is discontinued.

Going back & finishing later is fine. Mine do not always eat all of their food in one go.
