It would not increase his chances of getting Ca Oxalates, but not known to help prevent them either. If you are giving it for a certain condition, then make sure you are giving it as prescribed by a veterinarian. Giving too much can be a concern for other conditions, so it's always best to make sure you are giving the correct amount.
