Urinary Tract Cat Food, Chicken and Rice Formula - 7 lb. Bag

This cat food has literally saved my cat's life. He is prone to getting crystals and they block his urinary tract. He was on a prescription only diet food prior to switching to this more affordable option. This food not only saved my cat's life, but saves me money too! It is quality food that has low odor and his breath doesn't smell as bad as compared to other "cheap" cat foods out there. This is a crunchy kibbel that runs about the size of your pinky nail. My cat has so much energy after fueling up on this quality urinary tract food.

Due to our cat having had 2 urinary tract infections within 6 months, and inability to obtain a urine sample at the follow up appt. to the second infection, it was recommended that our cat switch from the senior, indoor, turkey and rice formula to an adult urinary tract formula. We told the vet that we’d been using Pro Plan and she confirmed that this is a good cat food. We added this new formula to her prior Pro Plan food in increasing amounts for about two weeks. Our 19 lb. cat (not fat, just a big girl) had no problem switching Pro Plan formulas, so we are pleased. For the second vet's appt. we had brought our cat in because of lack of bowel movement for 2 days. The vet (who could feel multiple little round feces) said that a cat with a urinary tract infection will often be uncomfortable or in pain when trying to pass feces and thus will not have the bowel movement. She recommended using a urinary tract food. As without the urine sample, it couldn't be determined whether or not her infection had been cured, the vet gave her a 2nd long lasting antibiotic injection, in addition to stool softener medication. Our only concern is that the Pro Plan urinary tract formula doesn’t address hair balls. Since the repeat of the urinary tract infection is the greater concern, we decided to put her on and keep her on the Urinary Tract formula. Later my husband read on line that some vets recommend adding soft food/food with liquid to the diet to help reduce constipation, so we decided to try this also. We supplemented her dry food with a soft dinner with gravy, but giving the "meal" to her in 1/4 portions for 4 days of treats. As she'll lick the gravy but refuse to eat the soft chunks, we puree one meal and gravy, give her 1/4 of it, and refrigerate the rest. We microwave the other portions before serving them, as the warmth is more appetizing and should help to relax muscles for easier passing of feces. She gobbles her “treat” up, even sitting by her dry cat food during the day, hoping to get more of the pureed stuff (which has duck in it), although she also likes the Pro Plan. Since the medicine, and diet change, our cat has been fine. We’ve been very satisfied with the Purina Pro Plan Urinary Tract formula cat food and previously had been quite pleased with the Pro Plan turkey and rice indoor formula for adult cats. Prior to using the Pro Plan we had used another brand that vets recommend and sell. I must say that our cat did (and does) much better on the Pro Plan than she did on that other name brand cat food. My only regret is not having switched to Pro Plan sooner.

Cats are notorious for urinary tract issues. One of my cats was experiencing discolored urine. I started feeding her this and her urine is clear again. She is a picky eater and was very happy with the change in food. I changed my other three cats to this same formula and they all love it.

Arrived on time. Cat seems to like it. I hope mission is as good as it says for urinary track.Because male cats are prone to get crystallization that I don't want them to have it. Thank you.

I was on a more expensive brand. This one works the same and it is more affordable

My cats like this food and one of them had urinary crystals where I was having to continue to maintain a prescription and buy prescribed foods. I decided one day to test this to see if it would work in place of the prescription food, and if not, I'd go right back. However, three years later, zero issues. My two cats have been happy and healthy, and it saves me a few bucks too. No complaints!

good cat food. my cat loves it, so i have no complaints. other foods cause my cat to have kidney stones, and this one does not do that, so overall i think this brand is great. plus it's not expensive.

Our 10 year old, male neutered cat was put on this food in 2013 after a urinary blockage nearly took his life. We were so relieved to have found a quality food that could help him and he had no problems on it...until 2019. First it started with inappropriate pooping on our beds, which we chalked up to behavioral issues because we traveled a lot. Then it was vomiting maybe once a week, okay, probably hairball issues or eating too fast. We added canned pumpkin and Miralax to his diet, which seemed to help the constipation. We bought a slow feeder bowl which helped the vomiting a bit. Then early 2020, our beautiful cat develops very itchy skin to the point where he is scratching himself bald on his head and behind his ears. We took him to the vet who could see no reason for the issue, but put gave him a steroid to help the inflammation. It helped for about a week, then everything came right back. We were pulling our hair out, trying to figure out what had changed and blaming ourselves for not being able to help our boy. Then it dawned on us while searching for a different cat food and reading reviews that cat food companies change their formulas without notice (Corn Gluten Meal is now Ingredient #1)! We searched the reviews for this food and found another customer who had figured this out. The mystery was solved! We are so excited to get our cat off this food, and are furious that it has been poisoning our cat for months now and making his life miserable! And to charge more for an inferior product is absolutely everything that is wrong with corporate greed! I am so sick of companies like Purina putting profits over pets. How many pets have been harmed by your products? How dare you pretend to care! I hope my review can help other cat owners dealing with similar issues to realize, it’s not you and it’s not your cat. It’s Purina!! The sooner you get your cat off this food, the better!!

Mes chats l'adore. Le gros format coûte 13$ moins cher qu'en animalerie et en plus, c'est livré direct à notre porte 😊

Our cats are on a urinary tract friendly diet and this food is great! Cats love it and it’s working to keep them without urinary tract infections.

Cat only ate it for about 2 weeks. I’m sure it’s good food, just my cat is so picky.

at 6 months old, my boy bengal started peeing blood out of nowhere so we brought him to the vet and they chalked it up to him being stressed (which wasn’t unrealistic because his sister -same age- had went into heat for the first time around a week earlier). so they gave us some medication and said he’d need to be on a urinary cary diet for the rest of his life considering he was so young and peeing blood. they prescribed us “Hill’s urinary care kibble” but something was off with the food. both my cats would throw up in the morning more often and my boy would have diarrhea a lot. so we did our research and found purina had a version of urinary diet kibble as well which was great because before this, we’d always give them purina kibble and wet food which they liked so we tried this one and they both LOVE IT. especially my girl cat (yes it’s fine for her to still eat this) she’s even gained a tiny bit of weight when we changed to this kibble because of how much she ate it ! safe to say, it’s bengal approved !

"Depuis que j'utilise cette nourriture spécialisée pour mon chat, ses problèmes urinaires ont considérablement diminué. Non seulement il adore le goût, mais j'ai aussi remarqué qu'il est plus actif et semble en meilleure forme. Les visites chez le vétérinaire pour des infections urinaires récurrentes font désormais partie du passé. Je recommande vivement ce produit à tous les propriétaires de chats ayant des problèmes similaires. Une vraie tranquillité d'esprit pour moi et un soulagement pour mon compagnon à quatre pattes!"
