Review Details
My cat, Max, was diagnosed with Feline Urinary Syndrome and blockage of his urethra due to crystal formations from this disease. He was less than a year old when this began. He became very sick and lethargic, and was urinating everywhere except in his litter box.
After 2 visits to the Emergency Vet, he was diagnosed properly and I was referred to a terrific Vet who treated Max for his symptoms and then recommended that he follow a strict diet of the Hills Prescription C/D food. He informed me that over the counter food usually contained too much ash and added to the formation of crystals in the urine.
Within a month or so, Max was feeling so much better and he completely recovered. He was back to being that playful little kitty I had come to love so much.
It has now been 4 years, and Max is still eating the C/D diet and loves it. He has been healthy and happy and symptom-free for all these years. No more accidents outside the litter box either.
He loves the taste of the dry C/D, as well as the moist C/D food. The fact that this food is a "prescription " diet means that I can only buy it at the Vet's office and it is a little pricey, for sure. But paying for surgeries and frequent vet bills are so much more of an expensive, if you think about it!
I wouldn't trust my cat's health to anything else!!
