Hi everyone
Long story short my cat has a kidney stone. She is 8 years old. She did have an infection in November that we finally got cleared up but bloodwork showed some high levels which led them to take an xray which showed the stone. For the past 4 months we have had her on Royal Canin SO in hopes that it would break down the stone. Went back yesterday for a follow up xray and the stone is still there. No larger. No smaller. She is acting normal. Regained the weight she lost when she had the infection.
The vet is going to call Royal Canin and see if they have any suggestions to maybe a different food. Also, to note we tried prescription wet food(Hills Science, Purina, etc)and she will not touch the stuff. She does get about 1/2 can as well of regular wet food in her diet and drinks water normally
Has anyone had a cat with a stone? And if so, what diet did you give them. Any recommendations for other dry food? Thanks in advance!
