Can my healthy cat eat food food for urinary tract health?
I have two cats and one of them needs special food for urinary tract health. For the past week we’ve been trying to get them to eat separately, but they just wouldn’t have it. The healthy cat is skinny to begin with it, and she doesn’t want to eat on schedule (they are used to food being available all the time). Is it okay if the healthy cat eats the special food for extended periods of time?
Thanks.
Double check with your veterinarian on this. But when my male cat was first diagnosed with struvite crystals in his urinary tract, it was easier to just let both the male and the female eat the same food. After a year or so, the prices went up, so I decided then to separate them and feed her something non-prescription and cheaper. The female showed no signs of having a problem Of course, by that time they had had plenty of time to get used to eating on a schedule (after all, you can’t really leave canned food out all the time), and it was easier to make another change in how they were fed.
If you are feeding them dry food, I urge you to switch to canned. Water is one of the most effective treatments for most urinary tract issues, and water is the one nutrient that dry food does not supply.
