I caught my 10 yo female cat urinating on the carpet in the living room, so we'll be heading to the vet in the morning to determine if she has another UTI. She had one about 2-3 months ago, when I'd recently started feeding her Royal Canin Indoor Light 35. I attributed the previous UTI to stress, which I still think is a major contributing factor. However, in the past 2 months our house has really calmed down and her behavior, attitude, and eating have improved greatly.
I've done some reading here on the site and I've read where Royal Canin has contributed to UTI in persians. She's not a persian, just your home-grown garden variety medium haired tortie. I'm wondering if the food is contributing to the UTI or if it's just something that goes along with an aging cat.
FYI, I will be discussing these questions with my vet tomorrow, but thought I'd get some input from others who may have been down this road before.
