At the vet's suggestion, my 8 yr old cat was on Hill's prescription c/d (dry) for frequent UTIs. When she went on it, her pH was 7.5. After being on it for 6 months her pH decreased to 6.5. But she HATED it and refused to eat it until she was starving.
Since two of the first three ingredients of the c/d are corn, I took her off it and began feeding her Taste of the Wild. She loves both the poultry and fish formulas but, after 4 months, her pH has increased to 7.0 and the vet tech suggested that I put her back on the c/d.
I hate the thought of having to force her to eat something she hates. My vet says to keep her on dry food. So... Does anyone have any suggestions on dry food which does not rely on so much corn and will promote lower pH amounts?
Many thanks and meows for your help. Both Miss Bee and I appreciate it.
