Stopping urinary diet for my cat

Hello there! It sounds like you're considering a change in diet for your cat, which can definitely have some implications, especially when it comes to urinary health. Cats can sometimes develop urinary issues like crystals or stones which can be quite uncomfortable and even dangerous for them. Diets specifically formulated for urinary health are designed to help prevent these issues by balancing minerals and promoting bladder health.



If you're thinking about stopping your cat’s urinary diet, it’s important to understand the potential risks involved. Without those tailored nutrients, there's a possibility that urinary issues may return, especially if your cat has a history of them.



If you do decide to switch, consider doing it gradually by mixing in the new food with the old over a week or so to avoid any digestive upset. Keep an eye on your cat for any signs of urinary problems, like straining to urinate, going outside the litter box, blood in urine, or even discomfort. These can be signals to reach out to a vet promptly.



For a personalized health assessment and guidance tailored to your cat’s specific situation, I’d love to help you further. Please consider booking a video consult with us at Dial A Vet, where we can discuss the best plan for your furry friend’s needs. Take care!
