ABOUT Dr. Katie Woodley - The Natural Pet Doctor
=====
Dr. Katie is a small animal integrative veterinarian who developed a passion for natural medicine while I was living in New Zealand. Her vet career was lucky enough to begin in the beautiful country of New Zealand. She was able to see how living off the land by growing our own vegetables and raising our own animals was the way to live the healthiest versions of ourselves. Her pets were lucky to have lots of open space to run around in and were always at the beach or the river.
When they moved back to the States five years ago, her husband, unfortunately, developed an autoimmune disease. As they researched natural medicine options for him to avoid the horrible side effects of the treatment options his doctors were providing him, Dr. Katie realized that she was doing a disservice to her animal patients by not offering these holistic options to them. She began down the integrative medicine route and has never been happier. Through nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine, essential oils, and supplements, every animal can achieve optimal health or feel their best even when they have a chronic illness or disease like cancer. She currently has a certification in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine and is continuously learning about the other natural modalities and growing her knowledge base every day!
She started this business to provide pet parents with more resources for natural medicine advice and care because we need to increase awareness of how amazing natural medicine truly is! Dr. Katie's mission is to ensure that all pet parents have access to herbal medicine, supplementation, and nutritional advice throughout their pet's lifetime. One of her greatest joys is the opportunity to collaborate with both pet parents and other veterinary professionals to ensure access to all available integrative options for pet health care.

My cat Mr Bumbles just passed away today from Crystals. Why do vets want so much to help them? They wanted 1500 to 2000 to help him. Why couldn't they let us make payment? I want to start a utub channel to raise money to help people who cant afford to pay for there cats Veterinarian bill. This is so sad that they just sent him home without helping him and later him passing away on us. He will be missed Dearly
I ‘m finding myself in the same boat. It’s a shame cause Indie is such a young cat.
I have the same case...and I still weeping and crying
I am so sorry about miss bumble I am in the same situation as you my cat is 23 years old she's older but also they want so much money and I can't afford it I am so heartbroken and in tears I will support your channel if you start it I was thinking of doing sort of like a nonprofit organization for people that can't afford vet bills Mike
I’m in this position right now I lost my job and can’t afford to save the only person (Simba) who was there for me. The are charging me 1156 and I just don’t have it I’ve been trying to give him Apple cider vinegar but he won’t keep it down. This is torture knowing I can’t do anything
Same problem I have today 😢
My kitty is ItsyBitsy and has only had a couple of problems with UTI in all of her 9 years. I discovered a long time ago to NOT use scented litter! Some of those are so strong you can smell them just walking close to the aisle they are displayed on. Also, do NOT use too much litter. If the level is high the kitty can rub into it and get irritated. God bless the kittehs!! Love from Texas.
Everyone on here try the home remedies. If you cannot afford the vet bill, as i, you are on this channel for a reason. There are treatments that are worth trying before they die. Watch the youtube videos on it and take action. We must educate ourselves to help our animal family. There are many vets on youtube sharing their knowledge and treatment so take it and use it.
I ordered my cat the d mannose for cats and colloidal silver both on Amazon and had them overnighted.
That's exactly what I'm doing now, today for the first time I saw blood in my kitty's urine I also do'nt have money for a vet but I realize from a few videos is to give them wet food and add a bit of water, I'll watch more videos. Good luck to your feline baby
My cat had a uti for a month straight .4 antibiotics one hospital visit and over 2 grand later and still had pain and blood when urinating. I heard of colloidal silver . I gave him 5 unto 7 mil two times a day and within 4 days he was fine . I also put 1 or 2 mls in his drinking water . I pray this helps someone
Thank you I just ordered mine today with overnight shipping. My cat has a uti 😢 and I can't afford to take him to the vet. I ordered D Mannose and colloidal silver
@@BasedTexans Hi 👋 let me know how your cat goes please
How many days is recommended to give it to them
@@greenshards7422 Hi I gave for 6 days by the 4 day my cat was great. Now each week normally on Friday I put 3 mls in his water.
@greenshards7422 I gave my cat DMannose for a week and he successfully beat his uti
Yeah, my vet suggested pet insurance, but I've come to the conclusion the only reason there is pet insurance is so the vets can raise their rates that much more.
The insurance doesn't even cover UTIs.
@@michaelhincheydepends on the insurance plus you never know if other problems arise. My cat just got cancer. Surgery was over $2k. Insurance paid for almost all of it.
im glad in my country (malaysia) has very cheap price for vet, my cat has pee problem (cannot pee and if the cat pee, the pee has blood in it), then i bring my cat to vet and they said my cat has crystal in the urine, they said my cat need operation to remove the crystal by flushing method (tubing to urinal) and inspect the cat for a week in the vet. After a week they called me and im very happy that the operation was a success and my cat is healthy and happy like he was. The doctor is very professional and friendly, it only costed me RM 600 (133 dollars) in total for all the operation, services and medicine.
American Greed the
Doctors are really greedy
They only have compassion
For Money not the life of
People or animals..
I’m glad you were able to get treatment for your cat at a good price. I just paid $800 for the cheapest overnight stay for my cat. The other price was $2,300 for what they wanted to do.
where is your Vet ? im new in Kuala Lumpur,
@@ainareyes1878 unfortunately, the place is at Lahad Datu, Sabah. Region of east malaysia, very far from your place, but i bet that at Kuala Lumpur, there is much more good vet because in my place there is only one (at Lahad Datu)
hun u still need to find source of why they are getting crystals and treat that b4 it happens again. crystals are not typically a 1 time issue
We use organic cornsilk tea whenever my 22lb Tabby starts to have issues. He knows that it helps... because whenever he starts to get a UTI, he comes to me and meows loudly... I then make a cup of tea and mix with his wet food for him. He's good within a day.
Wow this was a great video!! And I was surprised to already have most of the natural remedies!! Now I just need to prepare them which is the hard part… thanks for sharing this information
Thank you for having a microphone that works! You're the fifth video I've come to that I can actually hear!
Usually… someone is searching for home remedies because the vets are thieves… or they won’t see new patients… or they can’t see your cat for weeks… or they want thousands of dollars that just isn’t available. I remember my old family vet. He would NEVER not help a sick animal. If you couldn’t pay he’d work it it out with you. If you couldn’t pay anything… he’d still treat your baby. He passed away years ago… and I don’t believe that he died any poorer for his compassion for sick animals. Maybe these vets today should make a note of that. Society has certainly degraded over the years… my 4 year old female cat is horribly sick right now with a blockage and there isn’t a vet within 50 miles that will see her. No new patients… no appointments for 2 weeks… then there’s the humane society… scum. They want me to relinquish her or they won’t help. I spend more of my monthly SSDI on my two cats than I do myself. I take awesome care of them. Now, because I can’t afford thousands in vet bills… they say im not able to care for her so I must give her away to be saved. I hate people. They suck.
True I need to help my poor cat but I can barely afford rent or food and I know I can’t afford the vet.

Yes, Vets sure can take note that greed ISN’T Equal to treatment or care. We had a vet in my early years who was a lifesaver. He knew how attached we were to our cat that we found and nursed back to health as youngsters with adult Supervision. Our cat was critically i’ll & the vet called us one night saying he would stay late to be with our baby & if we wanted to come see him in case he would let us see him. Tiger was at death’s door & I was only about 7-8 …I took a Blanket that I held to my body & the vet took it & put it in the cage with him to lay on. I remember him looking so frail & being so cold but he fought & lived to be 24.5 years old! All of my animals ~ Dogs, Cats,Birds hamster’s etc lived WAY BEYOND their lifespan and were happy & healthy. Being on a limited income is hard & can’t always afford the wellness visits but I know that my animals are happy & healthy All but 1-3 were adopted or taken in. God Bless all the vets who aren’t ruled by the almighty dollar. I became a Nurse to HELP Not to make a big paycheck.
I'm going through this right now. I feel helpless. I feel stuck.
Thanks you for theses informations
I learned to get pet insurance as soon as you get your pet when they are still healthy.
This is SUPER informative. Have had cats all my life but I was confounded today, this helps! 👏🙏✌️

Thanks for following!!
Juniper Berry is a Miracle! It was all I had on hand last night for my 8 y.o. male cat yowling in pain, not able to pass. He laid on crystals in his bed and breathed in the diffuser for hours till he released in the wee hours while he slept. I also credit the Reiki cat healing music. Rushed him to vet this morning, x rated and the vet tells me he's quite surprised there are no blockages, crystals, stones visible!!! Sedated, overnight stay but no catheter needed so far! Thank you. I love him so!
Glad to hear you found some relief for your cat!
Yes and now he is back home with me and doing well after a 30 hr. stay at the vet! We are now on Hill's Science UT chicken for the moment which I have to feed to the others too. They sent him home with pills, onstor and prazosin, and a piller. I'm worried he will choke!! I got a CBD in salmon oil which I would rather give but I will try the vet protocol 1st. So Happy to have my baby boy home but the other 3 cats don't like his smell so they're all growling. No fights though cuz they're a nuclear family! Thanks for the personal reply! LOVE your channel. 💕
Update I never gave him anything but CBD once he was home, got rid of the Hills crap and put them on good stuff like Instinct, Wellness, Weruva, Call of the Wild...they are all doing great!
May I ask why you rushed him to vet in the morning? You said he passed the crystals over night..
@@bhumane8642 Thats not a good sign..if it happens when its asleep
Thanks!
Thank you
Thank you 🙏🏼
Good info... thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I wonder if water qualities might have something to do with the ph balance, like alkaline and acid imbalance?
Thank you for sharing this info!! May I ask; what about ACV? Is that safe and will it help?
Apple Cider Vinegar (Braggs) make sure it is in a dark bottle is what I use . It is great for human problems too.
Mahalo for all your information.
Dr.David suggested we give Buddie Hills Prescription Diet Urinary Care. cat food.
Cranberry. We'll try the powder.
My calico cat had 5 uti’s in 2022, she had them once every 3 months went through administering pain meds from when she was spayed to antibiotics to vet visits for testing to multiple urinalysis samples. 3 days after my birthday my cat went to the visit after she had her 5th uti, did testing and it found out that she had stones in her bladder. She had surgery to remove the stones, turned out to be struvite stones. After the surgery I had to switch foods and add water to her food, she has not had any UTI’s so far
What foods was she eating when she got sick? What foods was she switched to?
@@LaLa-qb2ps when my cat was a kitten up to a year and a half old she was on hills prescription diet urinary care c/d multicare stress. After my cat had the uti surgery I switched my cat to royal canin urinary so moderate calorie
Diet is everything.
@@connorcosgrove2240 I switched to royal canine urinary too. My vet vouches for it and no other brand.
@@connorcosgrove2240 just out of curiosity,why did u need to give a kitten prescription diet.
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Thank you very much! My daughter and I are new cat parents. Your information was wonderful and aligns with my way of natural modalities. You are a Blessing🙏🏼
Hi Olivia,
Thank you for your message. We are glad you found this video helpful. I wanted to share our masterclass webinar on finding the root cause of disease. thenaturalpetdoctor.mykajabi.com/root-cause-masterclass
This also has information about our lifetime Holistic Blueprint Program that may be of interest to you. Many of our members have joined as new pet parents to ensure that they are on the right track with their pet's health care.
Look up, Dr Jones, Veterinary secrets, He is a retired vet on, TH-cam and gives so much information and a free book
Take it in at least once maybe 2x a yr for basic checkups, bloodwork to make sure its healthy
You can get Care Credit immediately its for vet bills "just in case". Dont need good credit to get it takes minutes
If female get her spayed, letting it go for yrs increases chances of breast cancer I learned the hard way
Going into heat often can bring on UTIs also..stress from other cats coming around spraying etc
My cat is having this issue. She is 13 year old and was on uti medication, nothing changed. Given xray and bloodwork all were normal. Urinalysis showed blood and bacteria but no white blood cells (infection) .. so they diagnosed her with cystitis.. was on pain /anxiety medication for a week, symptoms never subsided. Shes back again today for more blood and urinalysis! I hope she recovers. I got a new cat last year .. and im almost 100% certain she is the #1 stressor. Ive changed her food, have her on soft foods with a little water added. Stopped giving her tap water, also giving her homeopet UI for her urinary tract.. and something called "liquid vet" for kidney and bladder.. she's still showing symptoms. Been 3 days since I started this but 2 weeks of symptoms! and $2000 later.. 0 answers! 😢
Vets are no help they just want our money, from reading these comments i strongly encourage finding home remedies for them and for yourself if you under the weather ,these vets and doctors don’t care about you just what you have in your wallet.
Diet diet diet. Thanks!
I have a cat with recurrent ut is s young female blood work is all normal, follow up cultures come clear ... Were at a loss. Diets been changed. And stress just didn't seem likely, she doesn't behave like she would in a stressful situation, play routines are in place, she gets along well with her sister, multiple litters on each level. I'm not sure what else it could be.
Hi, I have a comment and a question. I got a call from the vet, they found my missing cat after 1yr 4 months! Someone found him and noticed he was not urinating so took him to the vet. We picked him up, and he has been having apple cider vingar 50 50 with marshmellow tea water. This has helped amazingly so far. He is now urinating but not fully. I have dried juniper berries for cooking, can I crush these and add to his food? He is eatting, high meat grain free wet food, with added broth to get more water in. 🙏💚
How's your cat doing now? Hope he's well 🙏
😢
Thank you for your videos! My cat thanks you too!
I'm so glad and thanks for watching, knowing these help you and your cats is great feedback.
So I found this organic juniper berry oil,.from Exists,.is organic safe for my Cat..and how much of a drop?
Sometime after New Year’s Day my young male cat 1-2 years old developed a urinary plug and needed to stay at the vet for several days with a catheter… he did not have a UTI but I will try ACV if he has any issues in the future. I did suspect that a disposable litter box contributed to his mucous plug due to the clay litter chemicals irritating his urethra. I typically use pine pellets or corn cob litter with no issues. I got rid of the disposable litter pans.
My male cat suffering uti since 2 months. Underwent catheterisation 4-5 times. Was advised surgery. Changed vet. My new vet gave him antibiotics,pain medications,ethasyl,syp cital,neeri,serratopeptidase,Gaba,cranbact,syp.hympyrin.within 8 days he is better.also supported by homeopathy meds.
Thank you so much doc. Katie !
My cat is 17.5 and is diabetic and eats diabetic foods from the vet.
Can I give him berries in his food and how much ?
Yes I believe you, I have had uti for years,, I change my diet and I am uti free for years 🎉❤
What was your diet with uti vs what is you diet after uti?
What diet please
@@jakeoneal6056 I am carnivore for 4 years, I eat red meat only. Steaks; rib eye, sirloin, New York cut. On YT, I follow Mickhaila Peterson (I started with her and her early videos) , Dr Shawn Baker, Nutrition with Judy, Steak and butter gal, 4 years without urinary infection, I use to have urinary all the time, it was horrible since I don't tolerate pills, they give me high side effects, I could never finish antibiotics, plus I hate taking any pills., before carnivore I use to eat veggies, salads, grain, juicing kale celery leafy greens,and what not .Vegetarian for years and years, no meat ,, now no veggies, no fruits, no grain, just red meat. I even eat it raw. 100% grass fed grass finished. My cat too is eating raw. :-0) I put in lors of time reading and listening to other people success story and how to, I still do.
Tinkle Tonic works great, I was happy to see it suggested. My cat has chronic issues with crystals despite being on an almost exclusive canned food diet; I will use the Tinkle Tonic when needed and it clears up. It can be found on Amazon.
Should you always go to the vet for them to tell you what it is? Theb do the treatments at home?
Great information, and just what I need to know! My cat had blood in her urine and I did give her the Tinkle Tonic and it helped. I am not sure how long to treat though, so I assume 7-14 days. Thanks Dr. Katie!
How's your cat ? i have same problem with my cat i'm so worried please help 🙏
@@iamnaahtezaz I'm sorry your cat is ill. Unfortunately, mine got sick and died. I still have two other cats who are hanging in there. I was using bioidentical hormone cream on myself and think it affected my animals. Exposure to other things can cause problems as well. I also decided to go natural and not use pharmaceuticals of any kind, especially flea and tick meds, and not needed shots. I have found CBD to work wonderfully as well as natural remedies like the tickle tonic and giving them good food, or the best I can afford and what they will eat. I avoid cheap seafood wet food and try to purchase quality kibble. Unfortunately they like the cheap stuff which isn't good for their health, so it's difficult. They like Wellness brand, which is pretty good. Wishing you all the best.
@@MsT_Long Thanks alot for reply & i'm so sory for cat i can feel your pain but my cat have just this issue blood in pee how i can treat this issue can you guide me ? and which food is good for cat any name aur brand ?? i'm so worried i don't know what i should 😞
@@iamnaahtezaz I used the brand Animal Essentials Tinkle Tonic, which you can purchase from the manufacturer or on amazon. I know dry food can cause crystals in the urine, so I would only use wet food. The recommended brands that I have heard of are Science Diet, Tiki Cat, Wellness, or Honest Kitchen. I've also put a drop of CBD in their food. There are other good comments here as well to consider. I researched natural urinary infection remedies for cats.
My cat inky has a UTI. I am giving him D Mannose and colloidal silver.
I can't afford to take him to vet right now :(
I will keep you updated if it works. I am praying for him ❤
Did it help
@darlasonnier7032 YES, it did !!!! I got the D Mannose for cats off Amazon, and it worked fast. He was peeing blood and squatting. The DMannose for cats cleaned him up perfectly in just a few days. He's great now. I got nature's pure edge chicken powder one. I definitely recommend that. My cat likes the flavor, too. I just mixed the powder with water and gave him it orally with a little syringe.
Ty for answering me back
Thanks so much for the information
Blessings everyone 🙏💜 well after reading some of the comments I wanted to share a remedy/tip that could potentially help your dog or cat feel relief very quickly while the other remedies start to work.
So..... Someone here mentioned colonial silver
(I just want to mention that I actually been trying that and it has worked very well given of course what your furry baby has is also an infection otherwise the colloidal silver really doesn't do much because the purpose is antibacterial )
❤👉 Collodial silver in a spray bottle and your cat or dog allows you to spray some of that silver where they urinate from it can immediately relieve the burning discomfort that comes with one of those infections.
Have you or anyone you know ever had a burning urine do to whatever reason ? Have you ever splashed some cool water on the area? It helps greatly !
( I would do drinking water and just put it on there for a little bit and then just "fan the area" it immediately relieves that burning.
You can try a little wet napkin too.
Well for my baby I just sprayed the little area on top where she pees BUT INSTEAD USED SILVER SPRAY ( I used Sovering Silver brand just because of its nano silver and antibacterial property )
Immediately she began to purr and calm down on the spot.
If your cat allows you to carry them like a baby or maybe you could just have someone help you hold your cat (depending on your cat) but I tell you once your cat feels the relief they will understand that this is good and they'll be looking forward to it next time and hopefully that next time won't have to be more to many times.
If your baby cry after they pee you could spray the area with a little of this and if they let you put them in front of a fan even better.
I hope this truly helps somebody and that you home is peaceful and that your cat and all your animals are blessed and well.
Please if you see this work for your baby share with others and other videos and as I am also a believer in Christ I say take authority in his name and declare that anything that is causing your baby problems will completely be gone in Yeshua Hamachiac Christ mighty name and so it is 🙏
Awesome

Thanks for watching and happy to hear you found it helpful!
My cat just got a diagnosis : starnguria and pigmenturia -r/ o urinary tract infection vs cystitis vs neoplasia ( lymphoma, carcinoma). She has been a healthy cat for 10 years old eating row food prepare at home. So this diagnosis is 😢😢😢😢😢 sad for me and my wife.
I’m so sorry. I lost my girl to cancer a few months ago. Out of nowhere. 2 days she was gone. I’ll pray for your little one
How many days Do I have to apply this treatment on my cat 🐈?
Ia liquide glycerine ok for cats?
I also found apple cider vinegar helps with blockage. 5m( dilute equal parts) 2x a month or depending on if you see blockage beginning. No more than 1x per week
What food does your cat eat? I also give my cat apple cider vinegar, and it works

I heard someone say bone broth help as well?
My cat had two struvite blockages while on canned food and urinary supplements I was giving him a treat that change cranberry to try to prevent as a problem and lo and behold within a week he was back in the hospital. Currently he is on a dry food that is very low carbohydrate and apparently the carbohydrates affect the pH and affect the crystals, along with the high mineral contents of a lot of food. He's been doing well for more than a year except he seems to be sensitive to one of the amino acids in the food I have no idea what to do😮
Glad I found this video. My male 6 year old cat, Houdini is going through this right now. He was completely blocked from crystals, I rushed him to the hospital. He was there for four days for treatment. Urinal analysis came back and he has bacteria infection, they claim it's from the catheter so they put him on antibiotics. I hope he doesn't get backed up again. He is peeing but only small sizes and doing it frequently from the inflammation from the infection. I check his bladder many times to make sure it's not full, it still feels like a squishy water balloon and not a softball, so that's good. Half Apple cider vinegar and water helps improve the amount of urine. Any more recommendations will help.
Hi do you have any update about your fur baby? I’m dealing with the same thing now
@@margotvazquez9075 yes he is alive and back to his ornery self! Never eating dry food again!

Hi! This was a very informative video! Thank you!
I have 3 Male cats, all littermates, 4 years of age. They never go outside, all are neutered. I thought our Grey was being a bad kitty- he's started urinating in odd places. Actually he has done this a few times in my son's clothes basket, but now it seems to be different places. He seems to go plenty- he left a 10"x6" or so puddle under a chair as his latest. I use d-mannose myself for incontinence and frequent UTI's. I have powder that I add to my morning tea. He has wet & dry food and they share a water bowl that is cleaned, replenished 3-4 times a day so it's difficult to know how much he drinks. We give them filtered water. If I wanted to give him the d-mannose as it does a good job for me would it be bad for the other cats? Would I need to separate him for awhile from the others? And how much should I try? He's about 14 lbs.
He hasn't done any crying out in pain-- just the urinating where he shouldn't and my son, whose cat he is, says he feels warmer than usual and the cat won't come to sleep in his room anymore, BUT he often sleeps in the bathroom sink in the summer, and is doing so now. (I find hair in it in the morning.)
Thank you again, I did learn some new things!
I also subscribed. I am a big fan of natural treatment for myself and the kitties if I can. I have watched videos from a vet in Canada (Veterinary Secrets).
Wow! Your cat will drink ACV & water? I may try that! Do you give them plain water as well?
BTW- we had a male that had a blockage quite awhile ago- years. They had him several days and it was expensive but it never happened again and he lived to 17 yrs. He wouldn't eat wet food so we bought the urinary tract health food.
Good stuff, only vet Ive heard mentioning these products.
Dr...outside of doxyclycine what are typical meds used to treat UTI from vets?
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Make sure to check out the blog post where I talk more about this and I’m a big fan of doing a culture to actually confirm an infections and if antibiotics are needed, that we are using the right ones👍
Home made recipe for Cat UTI can you write all this down I can not spell Do we use all these herb all the time
Please help me. My male cat “Frosty” has been going in and out of the vet due to urinary blockage. First time I noticed was when he started to lick his genitals a lot and was hissing while doing so. Frosty is a very sweet, gentle baby and never hissed. So that was alarming for me. I later on noticed he couldn’t pee. He was straining to urinate for 10-15mins and nothing was coming out. We took him to the vet the next day and they had to insert a catheter in him. He stayed at the vet for 4 days (which cost me A LOT) then he came back home. I got him a water fountain, which he loved. He started drinking probably 8x more than he did, and I also incorporated wet food into his diet. I would feed him wet food in the morning with extra water, and dry food in the evening with water added. He has been peeing so much (it almost squirts) and i was so happy. Weeks later he started to pee very little again with blood. I was very worried, but the next day, his pee was back to normal. No more blood too. What a relief. But another few weeks later, he blocked again. No pee was coming out for a whole day. I tried to follow advices on youtube and gave him ACV but it didn’t work for me at all. (I gave him ACV the first time he blocked too and didnt work as well). So we took him to the vet and he had to stay there for a few days again. Vet Doctor said a perineal urethrostomy would be recommended if he still blocks. I AM SO SCARED I don’t want him to get surgery and I cannot afford it. It has been 2 days since he’s home now and i notice him peeing small amounts again. He has take home medications and I’ve been giving it to him religiously. Results also said there’s no crystals or stones found in his urine/bladder. Suspected cause is bacteria. Why does it keep coming back despite him being very hydrated? I’ve been feeding him urinary care food too, as well as Royal Canin. I really cannot afford any more vet visit. Could cat litter be the cause too? If so, what’s the safest option? Please help me!
Is your cat okay? 😢
My baby is going through the EXACT same thing... 😫😥😥😿😿😿 I feel so incredibly helpless.. we have spent THOUSANDS of dollars at the emergency vet, he's had to be hospitalized, kept for 4 days, had surgery to remove a stone, put and religiously kept on royal canin urinary s.o diet which is ridiculously expensive.. $70 for 24 cans and the cans are really small so they're supposed to eat 3 cans a day for a 10 pound cat which my baby is just under 10 pounds. So $70 a week just on food. He was fine for about a month after he had the surgery to remove the stone. Then he started straining again and only peeing tiny amounts so we took him back in, spent another $800 for urinalysis, bloodwork, and x-ray. They said there was no infection, no crystals, no stones. The problem was an inflamed urethra. They also suggested P U surgery but we can't afford the $4000 it would cost to get that done. Also they said the P U surgery is no guarantee, and there is a chance it could actually end up making the problem worse. So we brought him home and for two weeks now he's only been peeing tiny amounts. The vet says it's only a matter of time before he gets blocked again and that this will be a recurring issue for the rest of his life. We literally emptied our savings trying to help him so now we have no money and if he blocks again we're going to have to put him down 😭😭😭 I'm devastated. He is only 3 years old. I've been researching everything I can find and so far, nothing has helped. So desperate for a solution for my baby...
This sounds very familiar@@erinstine3832 . Did you find anything that helped? There is quite a good FB group Feline Lower Urinary Tract. Hope things are better than when you posted this
You need to put your cat on a probiotic and be sure to feed only can food. I give my cat a 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar with two tsps water with a syringe. I half in morning and half at night. I get urinary supplements that help with UTI. I got a water fountain with stainless steel to drink more water. My cat hardly ever drinks water so i add water to his food. I give him water with a syringe. I give him unsalted chicken broth for extra liquid. There are cat supplements with these ingredients she talks about.
I didn’t know there’s D-Mannose for cats! That’s great!
Also didn’t know that you could give them marshmallow root tea! (They’re both great for UTI in humans too)
Vets absolutely rip us off in the Uk. They are in no hurry to sort it out and charge exorbitant amounts to do tests. I was asked for £1900 today for an Ultra sound scan and a removal of urine via needle under sedation. I had to refuse because i didn't have that much so they charged me £614 to draw urine under sedation to send away for a culture test. I'm not happy with them at all. I had to ask for an anti inflammatory which cost apprx £27 for about 3ml bottle. I already paid over £400 last week for a routine urine test and a blood test and my cat is still passing blood in her urine. They saw her once and I've been back there to pay up 3x.
What is good cat recipe for UTI to make
can u use sugar free cranberry?
My cat drinks a lot of water and is always eating. However, he is peeing and pooping outside the box. Vet can’t figure it out. 😕
water down their food and mix in d-mannose - problem almost always solved within 12 hours
d-mannose is safe enough to give as a preventative for their entire life; 250 milligrams per day mixed into food for 2 weeks, then take them off of it for a week, then give for another 2 weeks, then off for a week, etc, etc
l-lysine can also help quite a bit, but usually doesn't help enough just on it's own (lysine is also great for upper respiratory infections as well and can be given as a preventative at 500-1000 milligrams every day)
D mannose is really good and apple cider vinegar can be given for blockage saving a huge vet bill or putting the cat down. Wet food and add chamomile tea for fluids into food.
Please help me. My cat doesn't pee unlike the his usual pee. It only drops few. It is almost 2 days since it started. I dont have money for a vet. What am I gonna do?
Hi, is apple cider vinegar also a good home remedy for cats?
Yes! Here is a link from the Farm Dad

Thanks for the great video!!!! My female cat suffers from constant UTI; I can’t afford raw or wet diet but I found a great food called Carna4; I also give her wet food when I can and bought her omega 3; when she gets UTI I give her some cranberry and echinacea chews.
Thanks again
A raw diet is cheaper than friskies wet food
Thank you so much for the helpful tips. My 13 1/2 year old Manx cat has high calcium levels at 13, SDNA marker for kidneybis high and now a heart murmur. She has been urinating at least every 10 minutes and when I'm not looking outside of the box. Down to 7 lbs but still eating and eating and drinking lots of water. Doctor gave 3 10 day doses of Convenia in the last 3 months but does not seem to be working anymore. She is clearly crying out for help. Very hard to get urine sample. I totally believe in healing naturally as I have healed from Crohn's tumors etc all naturally for 30 years. I don't want to take her to reg vet anymore. They don't know how to help her. Can you help my kitty
My 9 year old BIG boy just had a bout with UTI or cystitis (probably stress induced) and he eats only wet food. I added bone broth to his food and gave him Homeo Pet UTI formula in the doses recommended for severe symptoms. I saw immediate results and in only 2 days he was back to his usual self and freely urinating normally again😻
Thank you so much. I'm glad your kitty is doing better.
Update: thank you everyone. I went to a holistic veterinarian and basically squeezed her bladder and it came out. She ended up having diabetes and I also had a scan done and she had a large tumor in her bladder. I had to put her down. I am very sad.
الله يسمع منكم يارب may Allah listen to you and hope my cat be better soon@@ladyketurahinwaiting
Mam, Do 3 month kitten play when they have UTI? She is a female persian, her pee was fine yesterday, but today she peed dark brown in box and little pee was outside the box, right now she is playing and jumping and active, please let me know, I am afraid my baby might has UTI 😢😭🙏

Can you post the names of your suggestions I can't see it anywhere
Here's the link to the blog post in the description thenaturalpetdoctor.com/top-home-remedies-for-cat-uti-urinary-tract-infection/
How do you give a cat cranberries?
I'm going to order DL-Methionine and add it to their raw . Or add extra to the pet store urinary can food. DL-Methionine is the acidifier in the vet food. The vet food uses cheap by product meats such as pork. I believe my cat is allergic to pork but doesn't matter to vets. If vets don't see you buying and feeding them the vet only food they will blame and shame you if your cat gets ANY urinary issues. We still need vets for blockages and many other critical care stuff. But they're def part of a flawed system.
What about apple cider vinegar mixed with water to remove a blockage in male cat?
Yes
Want to introduce Bone Broth into my cats diet to help get additional hydration. Is it ok to use Chicken Bone Broth (Low or no salt) from store ? I always have Bone Broth (Costco Kirkland Brand) in the house. It does contain some sodium but sodium level is lower than the No Salt Pacific Chicken Bone Broth. If this is not ok to give to my cat can you tell me name of product I should be giving her. Many thanks.
You can use store bought. Just watch for onion/garlic powder in the ingredients. Green Juju and Primal also have pet broth you can buy in my boutique pet food stores too. You can also make your own if you want too!
What do you recommend for cat litter?
sWHEAT scoop people report no more uti's . . i now use wads of toilet paper for past 13 years , toss in toilet rinse out tub easy peasy
I fed my boy dry food for a few years then included wet food a few years back but the thing is he drank a lot of water always so I didn't worry too much about it. But I did and still do add EVOO to his dry food which he loves, especially when it's freshly mixed. I changed his kitty litter to clumping clay because I thought he was allergic to the litter I was using which was not the case so I returned to the A&H Naturals corn based. Now because of the clay litter I think my baby boy is suffering from a possible UTI. I just hope it's not more serious, poor baby; stupid mommy.😢
How is your cat now?
@@Shemayahu222 : The vet said he had a swollen gum around his jaw tooth and gave him a shot of antibiotics and said if he doesn't improve then a dental cleaning can be assessed. And because my cat has asthma he gave him a steroid shot. He definitely is doing well, using the kitty cat box, and eating much better.
Thank you for asking.
@@itsajahthing my cat had similar case to your cat. My vet told me: stop giving them dry food, give them only once in a blue moon and normally cook for them: carrots, zucchini, liver and chicken. All blend together and you can add calcium from grinded eggshells. That's it. My cats are now healthy and much relaxed. ❤
@@Syllia_Daeris My vet has no problem with dry food...the key is making sure there is fresh water available which I do...I use to set out dry food for knibbling but vet advised against it so I make the portions smaller and give wet food twice a day...he's lost weight and his asthma isn't as bad...no uti...which was a relief...didn't require dental cleaning...kitty is ok.
What causes a female cat to back up to a wall and spray or pee?
How do you get a cat to take the D-mannose? Sprinkle in food? How much?
Sprinkle on food. Add water. They say they can't taste it. Mine doesn't mine.
Yes I bought a bottle of d mannose powder at natural grocers and just tip of the teaspoon or about a pinch sprinkled over his food each meal two meals per day and then I also had some water and have a spray bottle with apple cider vinegar I spray his butt or his paws after meals. You can also dip a cotton ball and apple cider vinegar and debit on his front paws. There is cranberry juice that has no sugar in it however I am worried about his teeth so I haven't use that long-term at all it did seem to help short-term. I have also tried the tinkle tonic as a preventative. 3 drops per meal
I mixed it with water and used a baby medical syringe to make him drink it. I mix it w sardine water
Feeding my cat milk maybe two or three times a week will give my cat urinary infection for some reason.

My cat is suffering from kidney stone I can’t afford vet treatment plz share some remedies
I don't know how it will work for anyone else but I just cured my female 12 yr old cats bladder cystitis. I took a tablet of j goldenseal root. Opened it up opened my kittys vagina flaps and sprinkled the goldenseal root on the wet spot. I watched her carefully. She immediately started to lick the area but I was good with that because any she got internally would get to the bladder from that direction. She immensely hated the taste and just didn't try twice. Its bitter. I did it the way I did because I didn't want to have her digest a lot of it. The vaginal area was spot on the route to the bladder. I gave her tuna water and milk. But she is a standard dry food eater. I did this treatment every evening for 6 days. She was cured and has never had an issue since then. It's been well over three months and zero squatting issues. I got the goldenseal root tablets from the health food store. It is an anti lots of things. But it's main avenue is mucosal soothing and purification. It took a minute to write this but I know I love my old cat and I didn't have hundreds of dollars. I could see she was not able to pee and that she was in pain and had a swollen abdomen. That was an easy 300 dollar exam. Traditional vet treatment was astronomical. I have used goldenseal twice on my own urinary tract infections. Did it just like I did my cat. It worked instantly for me and that is howI came to decide to use it on my cat. Good luck. I hope this helps someone struggling to help their cat. This would probably work for dogs as well. Just my gift of success to offer here. Hope all goes well for all. Bty. She went back to her dry food the day after I treated her. She just doesn't like anything but dry cat chow
I have a 3 year old boy cat named moo( because he's a dump truck (he's licked everyone else's bowl after feeding) that's why I named him that) and I noticed him not seeming like himself in the past couple of days. He's still using the litter box bit when he leaves, he trails... also sometimes he just sits there and locks alot so I checked him out and it seems like he's peeping as he cleans himself. Would I just sprinkle some of that goldenseal root on his area? I'm at wits end and can't afford to take him to a vet. Thanks in advance!
They can learn to like wet food, like adding it in gradual increments to her kibble, feeding her boiled chicken or rinsed sardines with it... I had to do that in the beginning, my cat almost died because of a single bladder crystal, but I added diluted ACV with water into his wet food until I could get him into a vet. He actually PASSED the crystal two days before my approval with a local charity fund came through. The vet checked him out, and told me no more kibble EVER,that even the really pricey ones contained harmful things for cats with this kind of sensitivity. He recommended making homemade cat food or raw food...and to watch for stress...
The catch will just keep developing the Crystals and Stones for because of the plant-based alkaline ingredients in kibble they cannot metabolize. They are obligate carnivores, they need meat. Kibble is full of starch, plant-based additives, an artificial jump. It's like eating McDonald's every day. The best thing you can ever do is transition your cat to wet food and then to raw food.
I heard that neutered males are more at risk is this true
My vet is insiting i change food to Hills UTI and the antibiotics, otherwise the crystals will not clear up without hills ?
I’ve heard nothing but bad things about any of The Hills flavors! 😩 Try Purina UTI or Iams UTI dry food - ❤
Hey there, my beloved son Alva ( Cat male sterilized 2.5 years old) faced urinary problem 13 days ago, he was peeing less than b4 each 24 Hr once , I took him to emergency vet , they took blood test which was OK & also inXray they didn't see anything.
The Dr gave him prazosin & Urinary expert capsule but after 11 days using them he is still peeing once in 24 hours ( 3 -4 times time was reduced to 12 hours but since last night it's again 20 hours which he didn't pee ) I'm sooo worried. Is there any way to help him urinate more ? By the way we are in Tehran/ Iran and here I can't find cranberries & other remedies suggested in this video 😔 please help me
Go SEE A HOMEOPATH PEOPLE DOCTOR ..ask any friends who are INDIAN they will know
$15 BOIRON brand: Remedy : CANTHARIS *200 potency* in *PURPLE TUBE* DONT touch PELLETS WITH FINGERS -youll wipe off medicine sprayed on pellets.. *TWO Pellets TWICE DAILY - administer daily *until symptoms subside* . .her advice is great but *NEVER* put juniper oil in food or water..dont think she warned that clearly
I agree that is so sad they are like highway robbery. I havea diabetic female that is having problems urinating . I am going to attempt to express her bladder.
Mine loves dry food and won't eat canned, so I'm always crossing my fingers that he'll drink enough.

I used apple cider vinegar and cystease.
did it work?? my cat is crying every now and then loudly and cant really hold his pee or is peeing alot im not sure whats going on but hes hurting :(
I used the apple cider vinegar and my cat peed a river within a few hours. I did 5ml half water half vinegar
@@barbielacay6109 did you do 5ml+5ml or 5ml in total??
@@barbielacay6109 my cat is doing same but she doesn't like to drink water can I use dropper to feed her water with acv???
Yes the drop her would be totally fine I also dip a cotton ball and apple cider vinegar and a bit on their front paws right after they eat. I use the d-mannose powder just A pinch and the tinkle tonic as a preventative.
My cat had a catheter removed a few days back. Currently at home eating and drinking well but he seems to go to the litter box very often and urinate so little and sometimes none. Idk what else to do. Feel sad to watch him suffer to urinate. I'm worried if he is blocked again.
Hey how is he doing now? and did you do anything for him? My cat is going through the sane situation.. I believe the vet has done something wrong accidentally while getting him neutered
@@haneen.rmy7 my cat is peeing normally now, although he went to the litter box several times. As long he is peeing it's fine with me. He is still in process of recovering tho. Sometimes he strains probably due to stress or inflammation. Just have to observe him at all times.
@@shrzl this made me so happy it is such a relief knowing that cats can heal from such thing, what do you think helped him the most besides the catheter?
@@haneen.rmy7 I did change his diet to vet recommended wet food, hydrate him more. And always keep changing fresh water each time he wants to drink. And no more delicious treats. Hows your cat doing? Is he blocked?
@@shrzl he is semi blocked, he drips drops each time he goes to his box, but puts so much pressure.. I changed his diet to wet one hopefully it works
Is it true that Apple Cider Vinegar can treat Cats UTI? If yes,how does it work?
Not sure if it works but i few drops mix in wet food or on in drinking water.
Restores alkalinity of the bladder which discourages crystal growth which causes obstruction.
My cats will not drink ACV water at all even just a drop in it they refused so what I do is I take a paper towel or cotton ball and after they eat I put a little on each paw at also have a squirt bottle with ACV and water in it and I squirt their rear ends, and I put baking soda sprinkled into each litter box frequently. I add water to the wet food plate for their dinner with the tip of the teaspoon of d mannose powder. It may be that the water in my city is not good enough for him because oddly we are both experiencing the cystitis type symptoms.
Take apple cider vinegar, put 5 ounces into a bowl, dilute it with 5 ounces of water. Hold your cat gently by the scruff of their neck and rub them down with the solution. Only rub them down where they’ll be able to lick it. Cats will most always lick whatever is on their fur and this is a good way for them to get the apple cider vinegar. Do this twice a day until you know they’re peeing.
I also mixed in a bowl,
Organic grass fed, no salt added chicken broth, 100% organic cranberry juice, no added sugar and diluted the pure cranberry with water
Half an ounce of inner leaf aloe Vera juice
And gave her 3 droppers full twice a day. This worked well for my cat. If your cat shows no improvement or peeing in 3 days, stop the treatment and take them to the vet.
I feel so bad that i don't have money to take my Pharaoh to the vet .. I don't want to watch him die , but don't know to do .. sorry for venting here ..
That's so sad and scary :'(
Do they offer care credit ? That pays off the doctor and you just owe it to them. Don't let him suffer in pain :'((

You can delete apple cider vinegar in a bowl with some water warm it up a little and wipe it on them with a rag and they will lick it off
Gotta go out get the berries, the root, and the glucosamine right away! No home remedies here and no apple cider vinegar mentioned.

Why cat manufacturer make
Food cause UTI 😢
I used the emergency pet protocol of dmso and mms 1 (aka Sodium Chlorite) on my 3yo male cat and saved him from a emergency room visit. Now I'm implementing her supplement recommendations from video, giving pet CBD and changing to wet food with NO magnesium, calcium or phosphate which seem to be the contributors to his struvite stones.
The vet administered Antibiotics did NOT help his UTI or struggle to pee at all.
Pet Protocol is 1d DMSO in 6ml of water every 8hrs til symptoms are gone. No pharma drugs while using DMSO as it will intensify them.
and 6d of 28% solution of Sodium Chlorite (aka MMS 1) in 4oz (120ml) water. Administered for my 13lb cat at 1.5ml every 15min for 2hrs, then every hour for 8 more hours. NO other foods given during protocol that may act as antioxidants as they counteract the mms 1.
Thanks for sharing this. Did he have any negative effects from the MMS?
Which food are you feeding?
Never give your cat people food or milk.
There are a lot of human foods that are very safe for pets that I recommend for my patients and use in my own pets as a veterinarian. I also use a lot of goat's milk which is less reactive than cow's milk, especially for pets with gut health issues. Definitely check out our other free content for more information to guide you.
