Urinary Care – Sterilised & Adult Cat

Keeping a cat’s urinary tract healthy is important, as urinary issues are common and can affect a cat’s overall health and wellbeing. Mild problems may develop into urinary tract disorders, which are among the most frequent conditions seen by veterinarians.

Urinary health is influenced by factors such as environment, stress, and diet. Chronic or repeated stress affects urinary health by increasing inflammation and altering urination habits. Diet affects hydration and urine pH balance.

Providing appropriate nutrition, ensuring good hydration, and managing stress all help support a healthy urinary tract. With these preventive strategies, owners can maintain their cat’s urinary wellbeing to support long-term health.

Inflammation & Urinary Health

Highly digestible proteins provide amino acids that support the renewal and repair of urinary tract tissues, helping maintain normal function.

Hydrolysed proteins are broken down into smaller peptides, making them less likely to trigger food sensitivities.
By reducing the antigenic potential of the protein source, immune activation is lowered, which in turn helps reduce systemic inflammation.
Supporting overall health this way may indirectly benefit organs affected by chronic inflammation, including the urinary tract.

Collagen peptides

As a key structural protein, collagen is major component of connective tissues. Collagen peptides may further help maintain the connective tissues that support the urinary tract. Together, these peptides promote normal urinary tract function and contribute to long-term urinary health and overall health and wellbeing.

U R I T R A C T ™

Cranberry: Contains proanthocyanidins that help prevent harmful bacteria from adhering to the bladder lining, supporting urinary health.

Camomile: Promotes calm behaviour and reduces stress, which are key triggers of urinary flare-ups, helping maintain a stable urinary environment.

Rosehips: A source of vitamin C, an antioxidant which protects against oxidative stress and support the body’s normal anti-inflammatory response.

L-Carnitine: Supports healthy body weight by aiding fat metabolism; excess body weight is recognised as a risk factor for urinary issues.

L-Tryptophan: Helps regulate stress by supporting serotonin production, lowering the risk of stress-related urinary problems, such as inflammation.

Maintaining urine pH between 6.0 and 6.6 helps minimise the risk of urinary crystals/stones, as struvite stones tend to develop in more alkaline urine (higher pH), while calcium oxalate stones are favoured by more acidic conditions (lower pH)
