Royal Canin Veterinary Urinary S/O Dry Cat Food is a specialised veterinary diet formulated to support adult cats with certain urinary tract conditions. It helps create a urinary environment that supports the dissolution of struvite stones and reduces the risk of new struvite and calcium oxalate crystals forming.
The formula helps dilute the urine and manage its mineral concentration, reducing the availability of the building blocks involved in crystal and stone formation. It also supports an appropriate urinary pH, contributing to a healthier bladder environment and improved urinary comfort.
This diet may be recommended for cats with struvite stones, recurring urinary crystals, or certain cases of feline lower urinary tract disease. Because urinary problems can have several causes, including potentially life-threatening blockages, use this food only under veterinary guidance and after an appropriate diagnosis.
Encourage your cat to drink more water by placing multiple fresh-water bowls around the home or using a cat water fountain. More water helps dilute urine and supports urinary tract health. Feed only the prescribed diet and avoid adding treats, supplements, or other foods unless approved by your veterinarian.
Veterinary urinary cat food is specially formulated to support cats diagnosed with certain urinary tract conditions. These therapeutic diets help manage urine concentration, mineral levels, and urinary pH, creating an environment that is less favourable for the formation of crystals and stones.
Depending on the formulation, urinary diets may help dissolve struvite stones and reduce the risk of recurring struvite or calcium oxalate crystals. They may also be recommended as part of the nutritional management of certain cases of feline lower urinary tract disease.
Select veterinary urinary food only after a proper veterinary examination, as urinary symptoms can have several causes and require different treatments. These diets are not suitable for every cat and should not be combined with other foods, treats, or urinary supplements without veterinary approval. Regular health checks, urine monitoring, appropriate feeding, and access to fresh drinking water are essential parts of long-term urinary care.
