My Meeko was diagnosed with crystals in his urine, resulting in a blockage, earlier this week. The vet feels the crystals were probably the result of diet, so he has switched Meeko's diet to one specifically intended for this problem - unfortunately, though, I am really, really unhappy with the ingredients in the food (Royal Canin urinary SO) - by-products are the first two things listed.
I know that it's most important to control the crystal problem so that he doesn't become blocked again, so if I have to feed him this to accomplish that, I will, but ideally I'd like to do that AND not have him eating a crappy food full of by-products - isn't there a 'natural' food of the calibre of California Natural, Innova, Wellness, Chicken Soup, etc. that's also formulated to control the problem? Thanks!
