Hello! It's great to hear you're considering your cat's dietary needs so carefully. When transitioning from Hill's C/D to Royal Canin Urinary SO Moderate Calorie, it's important to make the switch gradually to avoid any tummy troubles. Over about a week, start by mixing a small amount of the new food with the old, gradually increasing the new while reducing the old.
Both diets are designed to support urinary health, which is crucial for preventing issues like bladder stones. With any switch, monitor your cat for any changes in behavior, appetite, or litter box habits. Diarrhea or vomiting could indicate that the transition is too fast, or the new diet isn't well-tolerated.
Keep an eye out for signs of urinary issues, such as frequent urination, straining, or blood in the urine. These would require immediate veterinary attention.
In addition to diet, always ensure your cat has access to plenty of fresh water. Encouraging hydration can help maintain urinary tract health.
If you have further questions about the switch or notice any concerning symptoms, I encourage you to book a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. We'll be happy to help you and your feline friend in more detail!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
