This item requires prescription approval. Details
Lower urinary tract disease (LUTD) refers to a group of disorders that commonly leads to irritation of the urinary tract and corresponding undesirable clinical signs. What causes Lower Urinary Tract Disease? In cats, bacterial infections are far less common. Urinary crystals and stones are often linked to this disease. The most common cause of Lower Urinary Tract Disease in cats is idiopathic cystitis.This diet promotes a urinary environment unfavorable to the development of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals.
Key Benefits- Complete and balanced canned cat food diet recommended for cats at risk of developing lower urinary tract disease
- This diet promotes a urinary environment unfavorable to the development of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals.
- Help prevent struvite, calcium oxalate and phosphate uroliths
- Relative Super Saturation (RSS) methodology predicts the crystallization potential of urine; RSS is used to develop diets that lower the concentration of ions contributing to struvite and calcium oxalate urolithiasis
- Increasing the urine volume simultaneously reduces the saturation of urine with calcium oxalate and struvite crystals

Ensure fresh drinking water is available at all times.
We recommend at least a 7-day transition before you begin feeding the new food exclusively. Start by mixing 75% of the old diet with 25% of the new diet on Day 1 and Day 2. On Day 3 and Day 4, mix 50% of the old diet with 50% of the new diet. On Day 5 and Day 6, mix 25% of the old diet with 75% of the new diet. On the 7th day, you can feed the new food exclusively. This allows your pet’s digestive system to smoothly adapt to the new food.

I struggled for about a year to get my little girl to eat the Science Diet C/D canned food. She hated it! I tried to make it more appealing by mixing in other foods, tuna water, anything I could think of, but she still would only eat small amounts and without much vigor. When I switched to the Royal Canin, it was like night and day. She scarfs this down like she'll never eat again. She asks to be fed. That never happened on the Science Diet. The C/D is pretty nasty looking. It's kind of chunky and crumbly, more like ground turkey or something, and even when adding water is still difficult to smash up. The Royal Canin is smooth and water can be added easily to make it into a nice little gruel I struggled for about a year to get my little girl to eat the Science Diet C/D canned food. She hated it!

This is a prescription diet food. I had been giving my cats fresh fish for meals, which they loved. When I learned I needed to go to a urinary prescription diet I thought they would not be happy. In addition, this food is a cake type wet food that I thought would not be desirable. I found they love this food! I ordered the Hills Urinary prescription foods as well. They like this the best!!!

I believe both foods are great choices however my two cats have gotten tired of CD and lack of variety (I do not use any fish products for either). I asked my vet for other options and Royal Canin was one. The both LOVE the flavor and consistency of the gel as opposed to the chunkier variety.

My vet prescribed this recently for my two cats, and I was concerned since one is a picky eater, plus it only comes in larger cans and the cats only eat half in the morning and half at night - and they dislike refrigerated food. But this stuff they both love, even right from the fridge! And cheaper than getting from the vet

Our vet recommended this vet-formulated line for our 16-year-old cat with kidney problems. To our amazement and delight, her miserable symptoms completely stopped within a week, and she actually likes it! She has been on this formula (treats too) for a few months and appears healthy and happy as a clam at high tide. Plus Chewy.com has excellent service and speedy delivery. We are purring!

My cat has had multiple UT issues in his life. We switched over to this food as recommended and there have been no issues since (fingers crossed!). Great product, and Chewy delivers quick and on time.

A beloved and quite elderly cat of my acquaintance has kidney stones. She and her momma are managing their existence with Royal Canin Urinary SO, and so far, all is well. She is comfortable, and she also likes the taste of this food! I'm happy because I can contribute to the wellbeing of a friend's cat with the assistance of the superlative product offerings and consummate customer service of CHEWY.COM, and all from the comfort of my computer desk. Thanks!

LEEEEON is a fussy eater and I have fed him a variety of prescription foods for his problem with urinary crystals. He seems to enjoy this food because it is very soft and moist. Sometimes I do mix a little of his other prescription food with this and he likes that too.

My cat was recently put on prescription food for a urinary blockage. We tried all of the prescription foods out there, and this particular variety of this brand is the only one he will eat. Chewy had a better price than what I could get locally, but a number of the cans arrived dented - which is why I only gave it 4 stars.
