    Renal LP for Struvite Crystals?

    Hey guys,  The boyfriend went out to get more cat food, usually Urinary SO, but came back with Renal LP. The vet had run out of Urinary SO and had told him the "kidney food", Renal LP, was the "next best thing". I understand that the dietary maintenance food for Struvite crystals includes...

    Does urinary cat food (eg. c/d, hills, etc) remove crystals once theyre there?

    Thanks everyone for the replies! Mr. Butters seems to be all better. Right after I posted my last post, he urinated again and has been urinating regularly since. The size of his urine is about two golf balls, which is twice his typical size, but because he is able to urinate as soon as he...
