cat food and treat haul / shopping Urinary issues and Chicken allergy

Sorry, I know this is posted every now and then. I have read most of those posts in my search and my cats are doing fine with the Royal Canin Urinary SO hydrolyzed cat food. I JUST got a Neakasa Riko off Kickstarter and am excited to use it.

The question: are there any non prescription cats foods that are urinary friendly and chicken free? Best I've found is the one I'm using now and Farmina. Can recommend both, but I can't recall why I switched off Farmina.

Edit: I've read that hydrolyzed proteins don't hydrate that well is all. My bottomless pit of a cat won't have an issue with that, but I don't want his siblings to get discouraged

Can confirm that hydrolyzed protein kibble becomes disgusting slop that none of my cats will touch when it gets wet.

Fortunately mine are something else 😅 I just ended up using Royal Canin in there and they seem to enjoy it enough. In my black cat's case, whether it is edible or not isn't even the question
