My cat has urinary crystals but won't eat his wet food. What can I do?

Question

My 1 year old cat is diagnosed with urinary crystals. He is on the Hills Urinary SO dry and wet food. He loves he dry food, but he won't eat the wet food, and he's supposed to eat more wet than dry. Could I possibly mix his prescription wet food with his old brand of Blue Buffalo/Friskies that he loves? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 9 months and 15 days old

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Spooky. I do not recommend mixing over-the-counter food with his prescription urinary diet as this will negate its effects. To increase the moisture content of his diet, you can add water to his dry kibble. Some cats will eat it that way if they will not eat the canned food. The other option would be to try to another brand of prescription wet food. I hope this information helps!
