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
- Use part of the daily kibble in a puzzle feeder or as treats instead of adding extra food.
- Compare the price per kilo: economy packs are cheaper only if your cat finishes the food before it goes stale.
- Check your cat’s shape every few weeks: you should feel the ribs easily under a thin layer of fat.
Common questions
What does ‘sterilised’ mean on cat food?
It is a recipe for neutered cats, which need fewer calories and tend to put on weight. These foods are usually lower in fat and energy, sometimes with more fibre. You still need to feed the right amount, as a sterilised food overfed will still cause weight gain.
How long does dry cat food last once opened?
It stays safe until the best-before date if stored well, but the fats slowly oxidise and the smell fades once the bag is open, so fussy cats may lose interest. Buy a bag size you will finish within a few weeks, keep it rolled tight in an airtight container, and check the pack for the maker’s advice.
