My cat gained weight on urinary food. Can I mix it with diet food?

Question

I have my male cats on urinary tract health food to prevent blockages, but the food can also lead to weight gain. I was wondering if I could cut the urinary tract health food with some weight management food to help them maintain a healthy weight.

I would not recommend doing this. My concern is that if you substitute food then the urinary food isn't doing anything since he is also getting something else and he may become blocked again. I would monitor his weight and how much food you are feeding him instead. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
