My cat has UTIs. What affordable urinary food helps healthy weight?

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Mediumhair | Male | neutered | 4 years and 4 months old | 9 lbs

Hello! My cat has urinary tract infections from time to time and problems and my vet reccomeneded feeding him wet and dry Hill's Science Diet Urinary to help him. Unfortunetly, I have been purchasing this very expensive food for him but it does not help and has been making him lose weight. My question is, What would be the best reasonably priced urinary cat food that I can feed him that will help his tract issues and keep him at a healthy weight?

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. You can try and switch to Royal Canin Urinary SO and see if this helps at all. There is dry and wet of this diet. It is a prescription diet so you will have to get a prescription from your veterinarian. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
