Urinary Care Stew Wet Cat Food With Tuna, Carrots and Rice
Product Description
This therapeutic wet food is formulated for adult cats with the case of FLUTD (Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease). Each 2.8 oz stew pouch contains tuna, carrots, spinach, and rice. The high moisture content helps flush the urinary tract. Struvite stones can clear in as little as seven days, urinary sign recurrence drops by 89%, and the S+OXSHIELD designation covers both crystal types.
Benefits
- 89% recurrence reduction: In cats with FLUTD, this diet reduced common urinary sign recurrence by 89% in clinical trials.
- Struvite Stone Dissolution: Struvite stones can start dissolving in as little as seven days, averaging full dissolution within 27 days.
- S+OXSHIELD Protection: Actively reduces bladder conditions that allow both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals to develop in adult cats.
- Controlled mineral levels: Magnesium, calcium, and phosphorus are kept low to limit the raw materials bladder stones need to form.
- Hydration from wet food: Wet food has more moisture than dry kibble. This dilutes urine and reduces crystal buildup.
- Tuna stew formula: Tuna, carrots, spinach, and rice create a stew that cats readily accept. This is important when the diet must continue for months or longer.
- Safe for lifelong feeding: Nutritionally complete for adult cats, this food works as a sole daily diet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What conditions does Hill's c/d Multicare Carrots, Tuna & Rice Stew wet food address?
Ans: Clinical trials support this diet for managing feline idiopathic cystitis, struvite urolithiasis, and calcium oxalate urolithiasis in adult cats. This is the c/d Multicare formula in a tuna and vegetable stew format, without stress management or weight management additions. Cats whose FLUTD is linked to stress or excess body weight may do better with a different variant.
Q2: How does this wet stew format compare to c/d Multicare dry food?
Ans: The therapeutic outcomes are the same for both wet and dry c/d Multicare. This includes S+OXSHIELD protection, an 89% reduction in urinary sign recurrence, controlled minerals, and potassium citrate. Wet food clearly has an advantage in moisture content. Cats that don't drink enough on their own gain from the increased fluid intake of a wet diet. This directly dilutes urine and lowers crystal concentration. Many vets recommend a mix of wet and dry food for the best urinary results.
Q3: How quickly does this wet food dissolve struvite stones in cats?
Ans: Struvite dissolution can start in as little as seven days on this diet. However, the average time for full resolution is around 27 days. The speed of this process depends on the size of the stones and the individual cat's response. Progress is typically monitored through regular urinalysis and imaging. Your vet will adjust the management plan based on the results from these tests.
Q4: How does this product differ from the c/d Multicare Stress Vegetable & Tuna Stew?
Ans: Tuna, vegetables, controlled minerals, potassium citrate, and S+OXSHIELD protection are found in both formulas. The Stress version is different because it adds L-Tryptophan and Dried Hydrolyzed Casein. These ingredients are specifically included to help reduce stress-related urinary issues. For cats with FLUTD that isn't linked to environmental stress, the standard Carrots, Tuna & Rice Stew is a better choice. If stress is a confirmed factor, the Stress variant is the better option.
Q5: Can this food be fed to all cats in a multi-cat household?
Ans: In a multi-cat household, most vets are comfortable with healthy adult cats sharing this diet. Cats with kidney disease, hypertension, or other conflicting conditions should not eat it, nor should pregnant or lactating cats. If it was prescribed for one cat but others in the house may eat it, check with your vet first.
Q6: Can this wet food be used long-term, or only during acute urinary episodes?
Ans: This diet is nutritionally complete for adult cats and designed for daily long-term feeding. Continuous S+OXSHIELD protection and urine pH support prevent crystals and stones from coming back between flare-ups. Your vet may also recommend using it with a dry c/d Multicare option to address dental health in addition to the urinary benefit.
