I have a cat who just turned a year old on the 6th of May. Last January he began peeing outside the litter box which was very unusual. He's not de-clawed so I immediately suspected something was wrong with him health wise. Long story short, my cat Zorro has been eating prescription science diet for urinary crystals. Before that I fed my cats Blue Buffalo, which I know isn't the best food out there but it isn't loaded with by-products or preservatives. I voiced my concerns about feeding my cat any food loaded with by-products and other yucky stuff but my vet told me he could die with out the science diet.
Well it's been 4 months and Zorro urine is back to normal and I have decided I want to take him off the science diet. I went out and purchased Wysong's Uretic cat food and a case of Nature's Variety Instinct Chicken canned food. I am hoping I will see positive results with this new diet. I am also considering incorporating some raw into his diet also.
I am just curious to know if there are others out there with cats who suffer from Feline Urinary Tract Disorder and have seen results from food other than prescription diets. If you tried switching from a prescription diet but had negative results I'd be interested in hearing about that also.
And so this isn't just a wall of text heres a picture of my kitty Zorro
Yes, he is in a sweater smile
