Borders CarePlus Grain Free Urinary Care Sterilised & Adult Cat Food with Hydrolysed Chicken & Salmon.
Urinary Care Recipe: Specially Formulated Nutrition for Urinary Tract Health.
This super premium urinary care recipe for cats is specially formulated to support urinary tract health. It combines 40% freshly prepared hydrolysed chicken with hydrolysed dried salmon and a unique UriTract™ blend. This blend supports a healthy urinary environment in adult and sterilised cats.
This grain-free formula is ideal for cats with grain intolerances or sensitivities. Formulated by trained pet nutritionists and approved by licensed veterinarians, it’s perfect for sterilised and adult cats prone to urinary tract issues, those requiring optimal urine pH management, those with food sensitivities or grain intolerances, and those experiencing stress-related urinary problems, which are among the most frequent conditions seen by veterinarians.
Using the innovative Freshtrusion HDP process, proteins are broken down into highly digestible small-chain peptides. These peptides support urinary tract tissue renewal, reduce inflammation and help maintain optimal urine pH.
In a 2025 study at Kennel 'De Morgenstond', Netherlands, 90% of cats fed this diet achieved optimal urine pH to support urinary tract health.
Key Benefits
Urinary Tract Support
Formulated to help maintain urine pH between 6.0 and 6.6, reducing the risk of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals. Struvite is often found in a higher pH, and calcium oxalate crystals in a lower pH.
Hydrolysed chicken peptides support collagen renewal to help maintain urinary tract function
Collagen peptides help maintain the connective tissues that support the urinary tract
UriTract™ is a blend of five functional ingredients designed to provide comprehensive urinary support. It’s hypoallergenic and grain-free, with an optimal pH formulation that helps reduce the risk of urinary crystals and stones. Veterinary-approved and formulated by pet nutritionists, UriTract™ uses premium ingredients, including;
Cranberry: Contains proanthocyanidins that help prevent harmful bacteria from sticking to the bladder lining.
Camomile: Promotes calm behaviour and reduces stress, a key trigger of urinary flare-ups.
Rosehips: Provide vitamin C, an antioxidant that supports the body’s normal anti-inflammatory response.
L-Tryptophan helps regulate stress by supporting serotonin production and lowering the risk of stress-related urinary problems.
L-Carnitine supports a healthy body weight by aiding fat metabolism, as excess weight is a recognised risk factor for urinary issues.
Highly Digestible Protein – Freshtrusion HDP
Unique process that cooks fresh meat and fish along with a natural enzyme, breaking proteins into small peptides.
This breaks proteins into small peptides, achieving the ideal digestibility and absorption rates – the Goldilocks Principle.
This enhances the bioavailability of the freshly prepared meat, so there is a higher nutritional value.
Inflammation & Immune Support
Hydrolysed proteins reduce the antigenic potential of the protein source, lowering immune activation and systemic inflammation.
Short-chain peptides are hypoallergenic with very low antigenic potential, minimising the risk of adverse dietary reactions. Put simply, hydrolysed proteins are less likely to trigger food sensitivities.

Owners seeking a veterinary-approved, hypoallergenic recipe
How It Works.
This recipe starts with 40% freshly prepared hydrolysed chicken, processed using the Freshtrusion HDP method to maximise protein digestibility and bioavailability. The UriTract™ blend of cranberry, camomile, rosehips, L-Tryptophan and L-Carnitine works together to support a stable, healthy urinary environment. Sodium bisulphate acts as an acidity regulator to help maintain optimal urine pH, while chicory and MOS support gut health and overall well-being.
