Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Many veterinarians will carry Hill’s prescription diets. I recommend calling to see who may carry it. As it is a prescription diet they may require a prescription or call from your veterinarian in order to sell the food.

Hill's (Science Diet) makes a prescription urinary s/d diet and a c/d diet. If it is SO, then it must a diet made by Royal Canin. Royal Canin S/O diet is OK to feed to all the cats as is Hill's c/d multicare diet. The s/d diet is probably OK if it is only going to be a short term diet.

Frankly, I do not care for Blue Buffalo products because they have a history of lying about their ingredients in their diets. Hills and Royal Canin are my preferred brands. There are other limited protein food brands out there, such as Natural Balance, which has formulas with a single protein source and a single carbohydrate source, making it less likely for your cat to develop an allergy.

You can certainly try the others tonight or give him the other half of the royal canin one tonight and try the others tomorrow. Your vet likely sent home a variety in case he didn't like one you could try another. If you can find what he likes the best you can likely just stick with that. I hope this helps!

I don't know if this is the diet you are talking about ROYAL CANIN VETERINARY DIET® SATIETY® SUPPORT Another great diet to put Patrick on to help lose weight is Science Diet Metabolic. It works great and a lot of my clients lose weight with this. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
