With the advent of modern medicine, life expectancy of humans has increased to great extent. This is a result of people adopting healthy lifestyles and eating right. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about pet health. As it is, the life expectancy of pets in this era is very limited. Most pets live less than two years. Unfortunately, this is primarily because of infectious diseases. However, there is one chronic condition that can be prevented for the majority of pets. This condition is urinary tract infection in cats. This article will discuss various ways in which you can prevent this condition from happening in your cat.
How to Prevent UTI in Cats
Few cat owners are aware that the biggest health problem their pet will ever experience is urine-related. More than half of cats aged 12 months to three years suffer from urinary tract disease. It is estimated that half of all cats diagnosed with this condition are completely cured. By the time your pet is three years old, their kidneys have naturally started to take up the slack. This is why your vet will want you to take a close look at your pet’s kidneys, and make sure that it’s in good health. If this is the case, you may be offered a diagnosis of feline lower urinary tract disease. Other potential causes of feline lower urinary tract disease include obstruction of the urinary tract (such as stones, tumors or foreign bodies), infections (such as cystitis or pyelonephritis) and allergies. If your pet is in pain, is drinking little or no urine, or has not been urinating for a prolonged period of time, then you should have your vet perform a urinary examination. In addition to this, it is also important to clean your cat’s litter box every day, and make sure that there are no obstructions in the animal’s water bowl.
Common Causes of UTI in Cats
A UTI is short for urinary tract infection. This occurs when bacteria enter the urinary tract. The urinary tract is the part of the body that collects urine and drains it. There are three different kinds of urinary tract infections. The most common form is the cystitis type. This occurs when bacteria from a person’s digestive system enter the bladder. Another type is an ascending type. This is when bacteria enter the bladder from the kidneys. An occasional type is the complicated type. This is when there are additional factors involved in the infection.
What Are The Symptoms of UTI?
Urinary tract infections are caused by bacteria that usually live in the gut or in other parts of the body. These bacteria can enter the bladder, where they cause an infection. Symptoms include pain in the lower abdomen, blood in the urine or the watery feeling you get after urination. Treatment of an UTI usually involves removing the source of the infection and antibiotic therapy.
The Best Treatments For Cats With UTI
Cats are very prone to getting urinary tract infections (UTIs). They are also more prone to get UTIs than other animals. It’s estimated that about 75% of all cats will experience a UTI at least once in their lives. Cats also tend to have more frequent UTIs than dogs. The most common cause of UTI in cats is crystals that build up in the bladder or kidneys. Most cats that get UTI’s don’t have symptoms at first. Some cats that have UTI’s will have sudden blood in their urine. Cats that do experience symptoms may have a lot of urine, they may have vomiting, they may be dehydrated, they may be unable to urinate, and they may be very uncomfortable. Some cats will also have decreased appetite.
Why Does Your Cat Get UTI?
Almost all cats get urinary tract infections (UTIs), and it’s almost inevitable. UTIs occur when there is a blockage or infection in the urinary tract, which can be caused by bacteria or an obstruction. The blockage can be caused by a little or a lot of debris, such as hair or pebbles. An increase in water consumption may also cause the cat to have a UTI. As a result, UTIs can be uncomfortable for your cat. The severity of the infection can be mild or severe. Some cats may show symptoms of UTI, such as frequent urination, a foul odor, and painful urination, while others may not.
