Prescription cat food products are clinical nutritional solutions specifically designed for various feline ailments. They aim to improve cure rates, enhance physical function, and help cats recover faster and prevent recurrence through dietary therapy. All prescription food products require clinical supervision by a licensed veterinarian. Owners are advised to take their pets to see a veterinarian regularly and purchase Royal Canin prescription food through reputable hospital channels.

Urinary tract diseases have different symptoms, some of which are subtle. Regardless of their severity, they usually represent discomfort or pain.

Because pets' urine is highly concentrated, even with the natural protective barrier of the bladder's mucous membrane, any urinary tract problems can cause immediate pain and discomfort. Therefore, any urinary tract problems should be treated promptly so that a veterinarian can provide appropriate treatment to alleviate your pet's discomfort.

Signs pet owners should watch out for

• Frequent urination and small amount of urination, or even inability to urinate
• Frequent licking of genitals
• Squatting on the potty for a long time while urinating
• Pain during urination
• Pink urine indicates blood in the urine
• A small amount of urine is found outside the toilet bowl
• Loss of appetite
• Abnormal behavior

Urinary stones are formed by crystals that aggregate in the bladder. Even if they do not form into stones, the crystals can still cause symptoms of urinary tract problems and can even lead to fatal urinary tract obstruction.

Crystallization occurs when urine becomes saturated with minerals. Causes include metabolic dysfunction in pets or changes in the urinary environment caused by their diet, which favors crystal formation. In the past, the consumption of dry food was considered a contributing factor to urinary stones. Today, it's widely known that high-quality, formulated food, even dry food, can effectively protect a pet's urinary system.

The formation process of urinary stones is the same, but the composition of each stone can be different. We can classify them into:

Struvite : A common type of stone composed of phosphorus, ammonia, and magnesium ions. Struvite in dogs is often associated with a urinary tract infection and should be treated concurrently.

Calcium oxalate stones : Along with struvite stones, they are the most common urinary stones in cats and dogs.

Uric acid ammonia stones : They are not common and are usually related to liver disease. Dalmatians are particularly prone to this type of stones.

Cystine stones : Rare

To ensure your pet's urinary health, consult your veterinarian to determine which food with the S/O INDEX logo is suitable for your cat or dog.

Product Features

Dissolving struvite - Urinary S/O Moderate Calorie (low energy) can effectively dissolve struvite crystals and stones in cats. In addition, struvite is often related to bacteria, and acidic urine is not an ideal environment for bacterial growth.

Reduce urine saturation - unsaturated urine does not allow crystal growth, nor is it an ideal environment for struvite and calcium oxalate stone formation

Dilute urine - Diluted urine can reduce the concentration of struvite and calcium oxalate stones, and can also increase urine output, ensuring that the bladder is regularly cleansed.

Low magnesium content - Magnesium is one of the components of struvite stones. Reducing its content can hinder the formation of struvite stones

Reduced Energy Intake - Reducing calorie intake can help neutered or obese cats maintain their ideal weight

Applies to

• Bacterial cystitis
• Dissolved struvite
• Preventing struvite recurrence
• Preventing recurrence of calcium oxalate stones

It is recommended to check the kidney function of elderly cats before feeding them urinary tract prescription food.
