Princess & Momo do not get their next check up til March, so need to wait about 3 weeks more. I've been researching online about acidic foods vs. alkaline. As long as they avoid veggies & fruits (alkaline foods), the pH should be back to normal, crossing fingers. Princess hates the Hill's C/D kibble, so I ordered some weruva canned food (also excellent food for cats!). On their site, they claim that their food is low in magnesium, phosphorus (the components of struvite crystals) & is also low in fat (which Princess needs since she had colitis b4). Hill's C/D is too high in fat for her, so I'm glad I found an alternative. They had weruva b4 & they loved it, so hoping it will work out. Meanwhile, I've been giving them brown rice w/beans (black, red, white & pinto- all acidic foods), mixed w/boiled chicken breast & Party animal canned food (so they get the vitamins). Momo is still on the Hill's C/D canned & I mix in the brown rice & beans only for dinner. I've also been trying to get them to drink more, like Kathy mentioned. I just froze the chicken broth (water from boiling the chicken breast) in ice cube tray & melt one, add some water to it & they lap it up.
I've been debating if I should contact a vet nutritionist, but will wait to see how their check up goes 1st. Will keep you all posted, Thanks again!
I'm adding the link to weruva where they talk about maintaining proper pH for cats, since struvites are very common in cats:
