? kitten with cystitisThink Mindy may have a UTI (urinary tract infection). Anyone ever had this with a kitten? On Saturday she had a wee accident - conveniently on the dogs waterproof bed  This morning she had another one. Ive noticed over past couple days when lifting her thought her bottom was damp but thought she had been licking herself & altho hard to tell as she has ginger colouring round her bottom as well as white, i think she has some urine staining there  Have to add shes very bright & Amber has taken Mindy under her wing - actively seeks wee one out to play Tims still huffing a bit but very little Will give vet phone in morning & hopefully get her seen tomorrow. Poor wee love. Anyone any idea on how to get a urine sample from a kitten/cat?

My kitten had this when she was 5 months old, and she had blood in her wee and was going to the toilet more than just a couple of times a day i mean like 6-7 times and hardly hany wee there what color is your cat litter? because it can be very hard to tell if she has blood unless you can go in there after she has had a wee.... mine is a very light colour so you can see the blood in the urine... You shouldn't have to take a urine sample with you as they should be able to tell from her tempreture etc but if they have asked you to,put stones little ones about 6mm in the litter instead and that way it won't soak the wee up and you can get a sample... But taking her to the vets is the best option no matter what is wrong with them.... hope this has helped, and glad to see the other cats are taking to the kitten now x |

I'm sorry to hear this Velvet - I think you are right and you need to let the vet see her. I've not heard of cystitis in such a young kitten, but I know that babies can get it. Poor love - she really is having a rough start. Hope whatever is wrong can be treated and cured very soon. |
