Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Urinary SO in Gel Canned Cat Food, 5.8-oz, case of 24

Discovered kidney stones when xraying for bowel issues. This food helped dissolve the type of stones he had. So, we now need to stay on this to keep any more at bay. I was feeding the chunk one, but decided to try this, since it is more like what he was used to prior. He took to it just fine. I alter between the two types now just to give him something different, since this only comes in one flavor. Wish they had other flavor options and a grain free option, as that is what we are used to feeding. Ordering is easy and delivered to my door fast! Packaging of products is great. No damage in delivery.

Our cat developed the symptoms of FLUTD - obvious trouble peeing, blood in urine, and discomfort. Urinalysis revealed crystals in her urine. Our awesome vet recommended this as one of the best long term solutions. So far it's worked great! Our cat has not seemed to get tired of it yet and as long as she has a steady supply of it her urinary problems are nonexistant. Compared to continued vet bills this product is a steal!

One of our kittens has a urinary ph imbalance that the SO products neutralize. The other kitten does not have any dietary restrictions and we found it difficult to keep them on separate foods. The SO product line allows them to share both the wet, dry and occasional treat. This particular wet food is our primary go-to as both boys like the wet morsels. At this stage, we cut the morsels before serving but it’s very simple as they are very tender; any utensil will work.

My 10 year male cat has issues with urinary blockage, very limited with diet. He did not like the Royal Canin morsels in gravy but he likes this one. I add a tablespoon of water and mix it. I didn’t give it 5 stars as I wish the can was smaller. It would be easier at feeding time as he only eats a little at a time and the cold leftovers are not as tasty for him.

Five weeks ago our 6 year old cat developed a urinary blockage so severe that, during his unusually long surgery, our vet (an angel sent from heaven) came close to having to give up on him, due to exhaustion. During his stay there, he displayed signs of a second blockage and required a second procedure to clear his urinary tract. When we brought him hime, we worried about further blockages. No more dry food! Over the past month we have consistently provided this veterinary diet (prepared within a pool of filtered water-yes, wet upon wet!). Our cat hasn't protested the change of diet and, aside from having to deal with wet food now, it's not bad from our standpoint (no offensive odor).

After learning the signs of further trouble (vomiting, small urine output) we recognized problems that came up and worked themselves out. Apparently our cat's urine had been very high in crystals that needed to be diluted and passed (and he had been dealing with this in the past, we now understand-poor kitty). We now rarely encounter vomit in our house-yay! After 3-4 weeks, his urinary output (mostly, each attempt at urination) has grown to almost normal quantity (rather than multiple coin sized - silver dollar?- clumps, maybe due to pain). Apparently, this food is formulated to reduce the formation of crystals that lead to blockage. In this regard it is effective, and not too bad to deal with. An added plus, our previously 16 pound cat has lost weight.. In exchange he has gained personality, spunk, affection, and grace! … more

It's pricey but not bad through Chewy. I thanked my lucky stars that Theo loves it because he doesn't have a choice right now. I'm almost worried if they do take him off of it eventually we will have a hard time finding him another wet food he will eat like does this one. And for what it does for him the price is ok.

Both my cats have had surgery for removal of bladder stones in the past 6 months and their vet recommended I put them on prescription food. Getting prescription food from a company requires approval from the vet. Chewy worked directly with my vet to get the proper approval and my order was received in ONE DAY!! Chewy's customer service is top notch! Also, my kitties love the food, thank goodness. I was surprised because they are both very picky eaters. I bought both the canned Royal Canin as well as the dry kibble.

My cat has calcification in her kidneys and gags at many wet foods that I present to her. Since she needs to eat this food to help dissolve the stones all I need to do is add some water to help her get as must moisture as possible. This food is smooth and she accepts it easily. I am seeing an improvement in her energy level and behavior even after a few days. I would recommend this food if your cat is finicky.

My inside cat who I adopted as a stray, would get so mad when I fed the outside strays their wet canned food since he is now on a prescription diet for a genetic urinary tract issue. I had only been feeding him the super expensive kibble from the vet but then decided to try both the SO UT dry and the canned prescription food from Chewy... it's cheaper so I am happy and he gets his own wet food now so he is happy. I recommend for any furbaby needing a special urinary tract diet!

Our sweet George has 'bladder stones' and after two surgeries and many $$$ we were told the kind of stones he has can be controlled with Royal Canin SO food. He is on a strict diet and we hope we have seen the last of those terrible stones. He is doing well and likes the food.
