It might sound surprising but your cute little kitty can suffer from stress too, which messes up with her bladder functioning. This stress can be caused by the demise of another cat in the house or sudden change in the surrounding. Cats look rough tough, but they are little babies. Finally, this Urinary SO Cat Food also comes in dry pellets, which are palatable. Many cat owners testify of their cat meowing as they open the bag for feeding. This cat food is not only great for your cat’s urinary health but is also delicious. Safety Another reason cat parents should speak with their vet before changing to a urinary diet for their cat is that urinary diets sometimes reduce the amount of certain nutrients. If your cat has any other underlying health problems, Dr. De La Navarre says, a sudden decrease in the amount of calcium or potassium they consume on a daily basis can be a problem for them.

I would never have understood the importance of buying the best urinary cat food had I not seen the benefits myself. One of my rescue cats was prone to bladder issues that continued until her last days. She was thrice put on this cat food and it always helped her. Regarding price, both urinary care cat foods cost about the same depending on your vendor. Hill’s Prescription diet, however, comes in 4-lb., 8.5-lb. and 17.6-lb. bags. Royal Canin Urinary SO only comes in 7.7-lb. and 17.6-lb. bags. Bottom Line The good part is the moisture content, which is 10%. Some cat parents did say that they were concerned about the corn and gluten ingredients too at first but the product did work well for their cats. However, my main issue with this cat food for urinary health is that they list meat by-products right after stating water sufficient for processing as the first ingredient. There is corn starch-modified and wheat gluten as well.This cat food is formulated with relative supersaturation (RSS) methodology, which reduces the ion concentration in urine. It is one of the key reasons behind the stone formation. It is 1.60/can. It cost me 38.00 & change, for a case of 24. To me, it's well worth it, & far less than more visits & ultrasounds! (Trust me, I have a care credit balance to prove it!) Urine dilution - Diluting urine decreases the urinary concentration of struvites and calcium oxalates. The larger urinary volume also ensures regular bladder wash-out. Carefully formulated with a recipe designed to help with the dissolution of struvite uroliths and reduce the acidic pH value of your cat’s urine, Royal Canin Urinary Vet Diet also helps to reduce the risk of recurrent struvite and calcium oxalate urolithiasis.
