About Royal Canin Urinary Health for Cats

Royal Canin, incredible in every detail.  Tailored nutritional solutions for urinary health.

Worried About Your Cat’s Urinary Health?

Your veterinarian is the expert on your cat’s health, so you should always consult with this trusted advisor to find the best urinary health solutions for your pet. Royal Canin works closely with veterinarians to develop cat formulas that help support urinary tract and bladder health.

How Can Nutrition Help?

Your veterinarian may recommend a Royal Canin Urinary formula for your cat. These special formulations can:

Dilute Urine

This helps your cat urinate more often, which can help minimize time for stones to form.

Lower RSS

RSS methodology predicts urine crystallization and is used to develop diets that reduce the risk of stone formation.

Maintain Balance

A precise mineral balance can also help prevent stones from forming.

Set Up Autoship for Consistent Delivery

Last-minute dietary changes can sometimes upset your pet's stomach. Set your Royal Canin pet food order to Autoship to keep feeding on track and avoid unwanted disruptions.

Questions & Answers

33 Customer Questions


What is the phosphorus, Magnesium, Sodium, Calcium and Protein %’s on a dry matter basis?


Can another cat (without special diet) eat this?

Answer by ChewyJan 25, 2018
Since this is a prescription food formulated to meet specific diet restrictions from known health issues, this food should not be fed to any other animal than the one prescribed due to the restriction of specific nutrients. Prescription diets can be detrimental to an otherwise healthy pet if that pet doesn't have the ailment for which the food is designed.

How many cups are in the 6.6 lb bag?

Answer by ChewyJan 15, 2019
The 3.3-pound bag has about 13 cups of food, the 6.6-pound bag has about 26 cups of food, and there are about 70 cups of food in a 17.6-pound bag.

Why does this say "Contains 9% fewer calories than Royal Canin Canine Urinary SO dry cat food." For the description of the Dry Cat Food?

Answer by ChewyMay 03, 2019
The Moderate Calorie formula contains 9% fewer calories than the standard Urinary SO formula because the Moderate Calorie is formulated to help with weight loss in addition to dissolving pure struvite stones and helps prevent calcium oxalate stones.

Cats ate the food for many months and then stopped eating it. It was fine with me because the ingredients are not good. My vet recommended this to stop them from having urinary issues, but this food is not made of healthy ingredients. I'll find other less expensive healthier dry food for them.

My vet was slow to respond to request for prescription confirmation. They finally responded at the end of the day, so I figured it would be 2-3 days best case to get the shipment. The next morning Pat ran out of his food! I had cans of prescription food until his kibble came, but he doesn’t really like it. I was shocked to see the Chewy delivery on the porch that very day when I got home from work! Pat didn’t miss a single meal. So impressed with their quick turn around and care for Pat getting his kibble! I’m new to Chewy but I’m a total supporter.

It helped my male cat Tom with the crystals in his urine. He was constantly sick for a year and I figured out it was caused by feeding him a cheaper brand (MM) and as soon as I switched him to the wet and dry SO formula, we've had no problems since! It's expensive so I now mix with Iams urinary formula and he continues to do well. Highly recommend, especially for male cats.

Made all my cats vomit! ZERO stars

I have one cat who requires urinary food because of a history of bladder crystals. All 3 of my cats eat it. Recently informed by my vet to put the cats on a calorie restricted diet so I thought I'd try this version of the Royal Canin food. They've eaten Royal Canin SO for years. Within a week of starting the food, each cat vomits almost daily or every other day. It's not vomiting that requires emergency attention as I've spoken to my vet about this -it's the food quality that upsets their stomach. I wouldn't care but this food costs well over $100 a bag and I am now sitting on a bag that it almost 90% full and it is worthless to me. I'd love to be able to get my money back from the manufacturer

My cat was on this for years. She started vomiting more and more frequently, for about a year and the vet didn't know why. I finally happened to see reviews for their regular calorie diet making cats sick and asked the vet to try a different food. She's stopped vomiting on the new food, although her health is very still fragile. I don't know what changes they made to the formula, but she nearly died before we figured out what was wrong.
