Best cat food to prevent UTIs? Is Purina a healthy, affordable choice?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 4 years and 3 months old | 15 lbs

I have 10 rescue cats, all ages from 2 months to age 4. I have been feeding them Purina one wet/dry mix daily. I however feel that the cats over 1 year should be eating kibble for urinary health to keep them from getting urinary tract infections. Is that a good option you would recommmend for their daily food? Is Purina honestly a decent and healthy brand? I want what is healthy for my cats but of course cost worthy too. Thank you.

Yes, that’s a good option. I like Purina foods and my animals have done well on their foods. I’m glad you are being proactive in preventing a urinary problem. If you can prevent even one vet visit it will make up for the cost of the food. There is excellent research about urinary foods. They have been shown to be very effective and can be used lifelong for prevention. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Cora.
