Many cats suffer from FLUTD (Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease), a complex and painful disease of the lower urinary tract, frequently associated with the formation of crystals which can lead to bladder stones. The two most frequent types of crystal which form in the urinary tract are struvite and calcium phosphate. Hill’s Prescription Diet Feline s/d Urinary Care Chicken helps to reduce both of these types of urinary stones. Struvite crystals and stones tend to develop because of too much magnesium, ammonium and phosphorus in the urine and an alkaline urine pH. Hill’s Prescription Diet Feline s/d Urinary Care Chicken aids the disintegration of struvite stones by making the urine pH more acidic which helps to dissolve struvite stones.

Good to know
- Check your cat’s shape every few weeks: you should feel the ribs easily under a thin layer of fat.
- Weigh the daily ration on kitchen scales: dry food is energy-dense and a heaped scoop can be far more than the guideline.
- Store kibble in its original bag inside an airtight container, so you keep the batch number and best-before date.
Common questions
Is grain-free dry food better for cats?
Not necessarily. Grain-free foods replace cereals with other starches such as potato or peas, so they are not automatically lower in carbohydrate. They can help the small number of cats with a diagnosed grain intolerance; for other cats, the overall recipe and the right portion size matter more.
Can I leave dry food out all day?
Yes, if your cat eats small amounts throughout the day and keeps a healthy weight. If your cat eats everything at once or is gaining weight, weigh the daily ration and split it into meals or use a puzzle feeder instead.
