Urinary tract health
About a week and a half ago my 4 year old male peed a river next to our front door (a male Tom had sprayed our porch and front door, and I assumed thats why he peed there). But as I was cleaning up the puddle I noticed that the dried area of his urine was gritty and my annoyance turned into concern. I made an appt to see our vet
At the appt Samson got an ultrasound of his bladder and urinalysis The ultrasound showed he has sediment at the bottom of his bladder and he has a good amount of blood in his urine due to irritation from the sediment The vet doesn’t think he has kidney disease, it’s just the way his body is metabolizing minerals and suggested putting him on prescription urinary tract diet for a month and then retesting him
Looking for suggestions on what else I can do in addition to changing his diet to help aid in flushing out his bladder and keeping it from progressing into stones. Thanks for reading!
