"My cat got a UTI last year, and after that I got these to try out. They work really well. She gets one every day and she hasn’t had a problem with a UTI since. "

— Fiona

"Everything. The size of the bits are 1/3 of what we got, previously. They neither smell nor taste like bacon, as advertised"

Bottom Line

This product is a solid option for maintaining urinary health in cats, particularly those prone to UTIs. However, be prepared to break the chews into smaller pieces or consider other flavors if your cat has difficulty chewing them. Check reviews regarding flavor and bulkide to pickup if you have a small cat or finicky eater.
