The 7 Best Cat Foods for Urinary Tract Health in 2022
Does a healthy food option exist for cats with bladder stones?
Thank you for posting those lovely pictures of Blueberry. He looked so happy and relieved to have a home and be safe. It is so clear that he knew that you loved him and he was able to leave this life in a peaceful and loving place. Veterinary bills can be hugely expensive, even if they do not result in any treatment or save the life of the animal.
It is good to hear that Lavender is settling down and relaxing at home. The movements of the last few days are what really disturbed him and he realizes that they are over now. Bladder stones can be treated with diet; while it is not a guarantee that it will work, it is a good first step. Wet food and water are key; I would avoid dry food. Would Lavender like a fountain? If Lavender is eating prescription food, that is definitely a good first step. Fiona herself had surgery for bladder stones; however, she would not eat any food which might have helped, so I am not discounting the value of a proper diet.
You certainly can try a dietary treatment for the stones. Wet food and water are big helps; I would try to avoid dry food. If you think that he would use a fountain, that might be a less expensive investment.
