General information: Please seek your vet’s advice before using this food or extending the feeding period. When feeding your cat with a veterinary diet you should consult your vet regularly for check-ups. If your cat’s health deteriorates please seek veterinary advice immediately. If your cat suffers from lower urinary tract disease you can help by feeding it a diet dry food which provides optimal nutritional support for its urinary system. Urinary tract disease can lead to urinary stones (including struvite and calcium oxalate). Royal Canin Urinary S/O products were developed as an adjunctive treatment for cystitis and urinary stones. Indications: Dissolution of struvite uroliths Prophylactic treatment/prevention of calcium oxalate stones Prophylactic treatment/ prevention of struvite stones Contraindications: Pregnancy, lactation, kittens Chronic renal failure, metabolic acidosis Heart failure Hypertension Parallel use of urine acidifying medication Key benefits: Struvite dissolution: URINARY S/O helps to dissolve all types of struvite stones. Urine dilution: Diluting the urine makes it less liable to form struvite and calcium oxalate stones. Low RSS: Helps to lower the concentration of ions contributing to crystal formation. Protecting bladder mucosa: Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) is a natural part of the bladder mucosa and protects against bacteria and toxins. Changing your pet’s diet and length of treatment: Your pet will need to stay on this diet for 5 to 12 weeks, or until the stones are dissolved. It is advisable to feed this diet for a further 6 months to prevent a recurrence. Further information: Please ensure that during its illness your pet is fed only with URINARY S/O, otherwise the effectiveness of this product may be reduced. Therapeutic veterinary diets are carefully formulated and recommended to be used in conjunction with veterinary advice and support. Royal Canin strongly recommend you seek advice from your Vet prior to and during feeding of any of these products to your pet.

Good to know
- 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.
- Weigh the daily ration on kitchen scales: dry food is energy-dense and a heaped scoop can be far more than the guideline.
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.
