Can you find out the urine PH produced by the food, and then we will all know for future cats that have FLUTD?

I've e-mailed them I will post the answer as soon as I hear from them. Hope it's within the range I need for Kyra.

The ash is 6.5% and the magnesium is 0.09%.
Best regards,
Solid Gold

Just an FYI
Ash comes from the amount of bone included in the meal. Most manufacturers that are high meal, use low ash. However lower ash isn;t neccesarily better, as it = lower meal. Take for example Evo dog is 12.98%

Slightly OT, but can somebody post the ingredients in Medi-Cal (like for their general "preventative" dry formula)? Their site lists ingredients, but not in order of volume used.

Thanks.
