Hi
My cat has previous history of struvite stones.
He sprayed in front of me other evening so decided to get a sample. Urine ph 9 leucocytes +++++ no other symptoms - happy for me to feel his tummy. Lazy as ever.
Nothing else in urine no blood or protein - he had this last time with struvite stones.
Anyway called vet to see about taking him in and get sample tested further. Vet advises me its too old (only 3 hrs old max) and would need a new one. I advised i couldn't get a new sample down for a few hours ( young baby so now or never to get to vets) . Annoyed as never advised this before as apparently crystals can form over time in urine anyway. - fair enough but then the other samples were probably inaccurate as they were not done in a timely fashion and were scraped off the floor.
He is fed wet food -felix and urine specific dry food. Felix is the only cat food all my cats agree on.
Any help or advice is appreciated. Wont be able to get a sample tonight so looking like beginning of next week.
Whats chance of struvite stones ? Or just general infection? I have a paste to add to food to help break down struvite stones which ive added to his food.
P.s. if you've read all that then well done.
