My cat has kidney stones. Is her dry food and tuna diet safe?

Question

My cat is 9 years old, she got a UTI 4 months ago & it was on & off for 2-3 months. She had 2 rounds of antibiotics. The scan/X-ray showed kidney stones. She was flushed with xtra fluids and put on food for urinary tract & has stayed on it. She has been fine since. She eats dry food. Should I change her to wet? Her weight is good. I put 1/4 cup in her bowl AM & PM. She grazes a few times a day. She has a teas. tuna in veg oil daily. Is feeding this way OK? Should I put her on wet food? Tuna OK?

If she is doing well on the current diet don't change it unless your vet tells you it's OK. Giving anything else extra can change the urine pH which is why stones form. You should really consult with your vet on this as they have Isabella's entire medical history.
