&lt;p&gt;Based on anecdotes, there may be a lot of vets using dissolution / &amp;quot;urinary&amp;quot; diets when they aren&amp;#39;t needed (FLUTD cases showing no urolithiasis / crystalluria). However, if dietary means includes &amp;quot;increasing water content of the diet&amp;quot; once a presumptive diagnosis of &amp;quot;idiopathic&amp;quot; cystitis is made, that could be considered reasonable with the association to dry diets?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Am willing to be corrected on this if anyone knows contrary!)&lt;/p&gt;
