My cats have been on Royal Canin SO for about 7 months and have gained a bit of weight. One is three pound overweight the other is two. Today the vet suggested switching to Hill's W/D, because it's also for struvite prone kitties and is for weight control. Has anyone out there had any experience with UT kitties and W/D?

I found the text in this book spot on, but the illustrations aren't helpful at all. Good over all book

This mat caught my eye because of its size and texture, which traps fine litter rather well. It's large enough for jumbo litterboxes, which is also a plus. It's not quite as easy to clean as a...

This scoop was a freebie with some clumping litter I bought last year, and I like it so much that I've bought a second one. It's perfect for fine clumping litter, which it sifts very thoroughly....

My urinary cat turned diabetic was on w/d for a few days before I got my sense back and put him on all canned. I use the w/d for one cat-Max hes lost some weight on it(has bad bouts with his stomach and wd settled that) hes got some weight to still lose but a big improvement.
My diabetic(benji) is now food controlled no insulin needed in few weeks
Great food for some but way to high carbs to work for a diabetic IMO

I would go with what your vet says. Ask about your concerns, but in the end, I always follow what my vet says. The food isn't just food, it's medicine.
Good luck with your kitty.

I go with the vet and also ask him to help you work out portion sizes. My boy was overweight and also had to go on Hills CD - that food is very rich so the portion sizes have to be small for my guys...smaller than I would have thought on my own. Good luck.
