Marion, once he gets the "we see no crystals in his urine" from his vet, yes, I think you can do that. Or do canned in am and pm, but dry to nibble on. Now when you say dry food for urinary issues, don't get grocery store ones. Bad, bad, bad! (o; Get either vet recommended.....like Hills (Science Diet) CD.....Waltham Low PH.....Eukanuba Low PH....those are ok. If you want store types, you should stick with ones like Wysong Uretic, Felidae, or another designed for urinary health. Your vet should carry some there, usually the Hills and/or Eukanuba and Waltham. I have seen way too many cats get blocked 10 times worse the second time because the owners went to store bought urinary foods, or etc. However I know no cats with even massive urinary issues who cannot eat dry foods too. All of them have been fine with it, but only with a high quality urinary one. And those often don't even add in canned food....I think adding that in 1-2 times daily is added insurance against another issue. (o:
Also, with canned food, try feeding them in a bowl over a plate, if you are not....with higher sides. It IS messy I know!!!
