Medicinal cat feed for struvite stones
The Happy Cat VET Diet Struvit dietary complete food is used for adult cats for dissolution of struvite stones and reduction of struvite stone recurrence, and in cases of feline urological syndrome (FUS). The diet is equally suitable for feeding cats suffering from feline urological syndrome (FUS). The main features of this wet food diet are the high-grade protein, reduced magnesium and phosphorus levels and urine acidifying properties. It results in a clear reduction in the urine pH. The slightly elevated sodium level in the food promotes increased water consumption and thus flushing of the urinary tract.
