Bags of dry Science Diet, Healthy Advantage and Prescription Diet cat or dog food should be stored in a cool, dry environment under 100°F (38°C).

It did take my cat a while to get used to the flavor though. Need to mix the food with her old food (also Hills) for her to get used to.
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2024
She LOVES this food. I used to leave dry food out for her 24/7, but I can't do that with this food because she'll eat the whole thing at once. Her urinary issues did clear up, but it's hard to tell if it was because of this food or just good ole time.
Here are my tips if your cat is having urinary issues:
1. If it's a one-off incident, investigate why it happened! If it's stress-related, which is common, address that first. When traveling, cover the carrier with a blanket to avoid sensory overload.
Try spraying the carrier with a pheromone spray like Feliway, which allegedly calms cats. You can even try a pheromone scent plug-in if you want. When kitty is in a new place, isolate them in a room where they can unwind without being disturbed. Google has plenty of resources for how to reduce stress in cats!
2. WATER WATER WATER! Entice you cat to drink water. Cats dislike water sources near their food, so try placing another water bowl away from the feeding area. (This is a natural instinct, as water sources near food / meat in the wild are often contaminated). Give fresh water every day. Try a water fountain. (Again, instinct - in the wild, running water is less likely to be contaminated than stagnant water).
3. Wet food! This kibble is okay, but cats with UTIs NEED wet food! They often don't drink enough water on their own, so incorporating it in their wet food is the best solution. And use a quality wet food - with the nutrients they need, avoiding ash and fillers. Fun fact, CATS DONT NEED ANY CARBS OR VEGGIES! Their food should be all protein and fat - any diced carrots and peas are to make YOU feel better, not the cat.
Experiment with adding extra water to the wet food! (Some cats like it, some do not). Maximize your cat's water intake as much as possible. But I wouldn't suggest adding water to dry food. It gets pretty gross, like soggy cereal.
4. Consider an oral supplement. I tried a liquid supplement available on Amazon. My cat avoided her food when I added the liquid, so I administered it directly. To 'force feed' a cat, you just quickly pop the supplement in the throat (not the mouth, where they can spit it out). I prop my kitty's mouth open with one hand and administered the liquid with the other (but I have a very patient, tolerant cat).
5. Keep that litter CLEAN! It's likely your frustrated cat will be peeing often, and possibly peeing outside the litter box. Mitigate this by keeping the litter pristine and possibly adding another little box. There's also a product called "Cat Attract" that allegedly attracts cats to their litter, though I've never used it personally.
6. Finally, track their potty behaviors as much as possible. If urinary issues persist, especially in male cats where they can get total urethral blockages and actually die, go to the vet. Have a log of all the times your cat visited the litter box the day before. Note how much they pee, if it's discolored, etc.
To anyone who ended up on this page because their cat is having pee-pee problems, good luck! Just stick with it. <3

I did a google deep dive (there were spreadsheets, it was a tense week) and yeah, food formulated for urinary care is different than food that isn’t. Not sure why it’s not all formulated for urinary support if blockages are so common, but I digress. I really like Hills. It’s not the ONLY option; there are other vet recommended brands that have trials and data backing up their food, but Hills consistently scores high with vets, pets, and pet owners.
It doesn’t guarantee that your cat won’t block, or won’t block again. But my cats have been more energetic, their coats are softer, they shed less, they have virtually ZERO hair balls, they barely fart, and they LOVE the taste. I tried a couple other brands before I settled on Hills, and one girl would just sit there looking pissed and meowing at me when I tried to feed her Purina. I get it, it’s a lot more expensive than what I (and probably you) were using before, but it really ACTUALLY makes a difference. For me, it’s worth $80/bag to not have to go through finding my guy twitching on the floor, racing him to the vet 3 separate times, and then finally to the pet hospital at 10:00pm. That preceded a sleepless night and a week of tricking him into taking his meds. He hasn’t had a problem since and its been almost 2 years (knock on wood). It’s more than worth it to me.
