Feed him a good quality canned food diet. The extra water in the canned
food helps to dilute the urine and prevent crystals from forming. I
even add a little water to the canned food.


Yes I can do that. Would warm milk work also if he's not lactose
intolerant?


You could use Lactaid. Seems to me that milk was forbidden for cats who
have this problem (not that yours does yet_. I'd like to heat whether
that is the case.


I'll use warm water then. No use taking a chance. With the info on those
recommended websites I located a Petco less than 10 miles from my house that
carries the canned Pro Plan Adult Urinary Tract Health Cat Food. I'm going
out there Fri or Sat to pick up a case of it and another cat Tree-condo on
sale for $149. I hope they have the condo-tree in by then. I want to
start adding raw food to thier diet also. Unfortunately the local Wal*Mart
doesn't have beef heart, kidney, chicken gizzards hearts and other such
goodies. I have to drive to the other end of the nearest town and see if
Publix or Kroger has organ meats.
