The nutrient supply of a self-prepared ration in the sense of a urinary stone diet shows significant deficiencies in the coverage of requirements without supplements (Fig. 1). These should be compensated for by appropriate supplements (Fig. 2).

To adjust the urine pH, the feed can be supplemented with Novomineral Vet-MET (acidification) or napfcheck® potassium citrate (alkalization). The urine pH should be checked regularly. At the beginning, it is best to do this once a day in the morning before feeding and once again during the day at least 4 hours after feeding.
General recommendation for urine pH for:
- Struvit: < 6,9 zur Prophylaxe und < 6,5 zur Auflösung
- Calcium oxalate: approx. 7.0
- Urates, xanthine: 6.5 - 7.2
- Cystine: approx. 7.5
A high fluid intake is very important for urinary stones (e.g. via wet/fresh food or soaked dry food). The following foods should always be avoided.
- Struvite: No bones, potatoes or large amounts of meat
- Calcium oxalate: No bones, additional sources of calcium, dark leafy vegetables, beet, nuts, whole grain products, offal or buffalo hide bones
- Urates, xanthine: No offal, fish, brewer's yeast, algae and shellfish products or high amounts of meat
- Cystine: No eggs or high amounts of meat
For individual feeding plans, consult a specialist vet or nutritionist.
Note: If a disease is diagnosed, a diet recommendation cannot replace treatment by a vet!
