Product Information

Full details

Advance Veterinary Diets Urinary Feline is a specialized dietetic complete dry food formulated for adult cats prone to urinary tract issues and the recurrence of struvite stones. It offers a critical health benefit by promoting a urinary environment that is unfavorable for crystal formation through controlled mineral levels and urine-acidifying properties, though it is strictly a therapeutic diet that requires veterinary oversight and regular health monitoring.

FAQs

Can I feed this to my other cats who don't have urinary issues?

It is best to consult your vet. Generally, therapeutic diets are formulated specifically for the medical needs of the patient and may not be balanced for healthy cats.

How long will my cat need to eat this food?

The duration depends on your cat's specific health condition and your vet's recommendation. Some cats require it long-term, while others may only need it for a specific recovery period.

Does this food prevent all types of urinary stones?

No. This food is specifically designed for struvite stones. It may not be effective against other types of stones, such as calcium oxalate.

Do I still need to give my cat fresh water?

Yes, absolutely. Fresh water is vital to help with urine dilution, which is a key mechanism for how this food works.

Is this a complete diet?

Yes, it is a complete and balanced dietetic food, meaning it contains all the necessary nutrients your cat needs for daily health.

Troubleshooting

Cat refuses to eat the new food

Ensure you are transitioning slowly over a week and try warming the food slightly or adding a small amount of warm water to enhance the aroma.

Straining persists after changing diet

Contact your veterinarian immediately as this may indicate a blockage, which is a life-threatening emergency.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Transitioning to this diet should be done gradually over a 7-day period to prevent digestive upset. Start by mixing 25% of the new food with 75% of the old, slowly increasing the ratio until the cat is eating exclusively Advance Urinary Feline.

Storage: Keep the bag tightly sealed in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness and aroma.
Consultation: Never start this diet without a confirmed diagnosis from your veterinarian, as the formula is not appropriate for all types of kidney or bladder stones.
Monitoring: Schedule follow-up appointments with your vet to test urine pH and verify that the diet is effectively managing the stone recurrence.
