Is it okay if both my cats eat the urinary diet for crystal issues?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

I have 2 cats, a neutered male age 14 and a spayed female age 3. The female is recovering from an episode of cystitis brought on by crystals in her urine. The male is healthy per recent blood panels. The female was prescribed a urinary diet but I am finding it difficult to feed them separately. Will it harm the male to feed them both the urinary diet?

Hello, great question. Generally it would be OK to feed a urinary diet to both of them however, I would need to know exactly what food it is that you are feeding in order to help you better. Can you please post again with the name of the food? Thank you!
