I have been using prebiotics for Casey wo has a problem with diahrrea. So far, it seems to be working because I don't find any looses stools in any of the boxes. Hadn't thought about that for urinary prblems. Homey has reoccuring problems with crystals in her urin. whenever I fid small clumps, I head for the cranberry supplement. It comes in a tube and I smear it on her paws and face so she will lick it off. She will not take meds in any form. That too is working. Will get some of the CoQ10 for both of them. Like you said won't hurt them. Thanks for that tip.
