Jeni,
So sorry to hear about a person who won't listen to suggestions. Usually it
is the owner's problem, not the cat's, that causes these issues. I know
she's not listening, but really, you have to tell her my experience. My
Bandit (10 years old now) was peeing in the heat vent last winter.
I'm interested too Susan, so I hope you find something. I'm very happy for
Autumn! I'll keep my fingers (and all our paws at home) crossed for her.

Welcome to this list! I do not currently have an FeLV cat, but from what

Susan,
I give SD C/D to all my cats since one of them needs it to prevent crystals
forming in his urine. It is impossible to feed them separately. Since he
started on it, he hasn't had any problems.
What would you suggest I use instead? It's expensive food, and I know there
has to be something
medicine you are feeding to your cat who is
prone to crystals.
I hope this helps!
