Redneck has bladder stones. He will not eat hills diet so is now on fus-sol drops and hills urinary care dry food along with sheba wet food. 8 days in and he seems to be relapsing. What is our next option? Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | unneutered | 9 years and 8 months old | 9.2 lbs

Surgery may be the next option if he won't eat the prescription diet. Discuss other diets, both canned and dry, with your veterinarian first. It may take several weeks to months to fully dissolve any stones or crystals. Try to get him to drink as much water as possible to dilute his urine.
