Picture Where to get discounts on hills urinary stress multicare cd catfood?

Hey there.i looked everywhere online. Can't seem to find. My gran and I have 3 feral who now can't manage on other brands iv tried. I have a lab but can't get the animal safe active ingredients, iv tried cbd but doesn't work. The probiotic I make seems to work however I need to find pellets with safe ingredients that will help. The prices are so hectic..I'm still paying off debts from when I had surgery.

Not really an answer to your question but I know a lot about cat nutrition. Have a look at Montego Karoo Trout and Lamb - it's a single grain recipe. Then also Lokuno No Grain - I have a very sensitive cat who is looking super good these days thanks to that food.

They may be cheaper alternatives to this food.

I'm going to second this response. I had a cat with urinary issues he picked up from 1 year old. For 4 years, I gave him Hill's CD and he was always miserable. One day I discovered a lady in Ballito who has a company that makes raw food. She is a microbiologist, I believe. And since starting my boy on the raw food, he got his life back! He started running around, loved cuddles, went out hunting... All the things he couldn't do before. He passed away peacefully at 16 years old. Now I give all my cats a combination of Montego Karoo and the Raw food.

Hi OP. I was told by one vet that only the hills urinary food can help my cat, but then my primary vet really helped me out with recommending vetsbrands. My persian cat has serious and ongoing urinary issues, he was rehomed to me after the previous owner couldn't handle his care anymore. My vet put him onto https://vetsbrands.co.za/project/cystofocus/ vetsbrands cystofocus powder supplement and the vetsbrands feline adult food. I had him on Montego before switching. After starting the vetsbrands pellets and supplement in 3 months his urinary issues stopped completely. It's a world of difference to his temperament and comfort. He was urinating blood and then when that inflammation settled down in the initial weeks, he continued urinating inappropriately at the house doors for 2 months, and now it's stopped. He only goes in the litter box and he's eatinf better and more calm. I gave him the supplement the entire time. Please try it! The one bottle also goes a long way since you give them so little of it in their food once a day

I saw discounts on Petworld just a few days ago! The specials are over now but I think they'll come and go, for future reference. Other places I've seen discounts for Hills pretty occasionally before have been Petheaven and Absolute Pets, but you might have to call AP beforehand if you want to buy in store to ensure they have stock. Some of these websites have "Get ___ off your first order" types of deals if you're new, so maybe you can also take advantage of that! Best of luck, I'm sorry to hear about your troubles :(

just buy the 10kg bag. It works out cheaper when you buy it in bulk.

It's only sold in 12kg and over R4500 Doesn't work out cheaper

One website is R399 for 1.5kg and wants R1560 for a 3kg

Others are R700 for a 3kg

12kg is R4500 R375 per kg 1.5kg is R399

So what's saving? Don't you think if I could afford to spend almost half my salary on it I wouldn't be here.

Dude was just trying to help. Technically, albeit small, it is still a saving

u/KJeanette755 26d ago

R399 for over 1kg, vs R375 for 1kg is not a saving.
