Hey, my cat Florine is almost 3 years old and I've had her for almost two, and for about a year I've been feeding her a homemade raw diet as per feline-nutritions cat food calculator. Two days ago she peed on my futon and I got a urine sample, took it to the vet, and it turns out she has a UTI, crystals, and a ph of 8. This is the third time she has had urinary problems and my vet recommended that I put her on Royal Canin's urinary health food.
First of all, the canned food is quite a bit more expensive than I feel comfortable with and I would like to avoid giving her kibble. I also love making her food and would love to continue doing that! I've bought 12 cans of the Canin food for now but I'd love your input-- is there an alternative to the royal canin food that I can make work with raw?
I'm also nervous about giving her the canin tonight, should I expect for any upset in her stomach with the switch in food?
I want the very best for my girl and I do not want her to have to be uncomfortable, so her health is my first priority!
