Vitamin C routinely, and adding a very good quality of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV), starting with just a drop in their water, and increasing all the time. ACV tastes a lot less vinegary than other vinegars....and animals like it a lot - good for so many other things, too! One of our FIV cats had crystals, and he hates the canned Science Diet (Hills), but loves the dry food S-D.

The vet did a cystocentesis on her today in addition to urinalysis and sent a sample in for cultures and sens (aerobic and anaerobic) so we can find out which antibiotic will stop the bacteria infection. Iam also starting her on Hills s/d which he said would help disolve the crystals. I have been giving her a cranberry paste but he said that would clear out a lot of the "junk" in her bladder, but not do enough to disolve the crystals. Plus, we spend at least 20 minutes running arond the house every time I get it out. I swear she smells it because even tho she is not in the room when I get it out, she starts ducking and dodging to avod me. I feel like a cutting horse trying to out guess her and figure which way she is going to go next. Thisis her 3rd time this year with this. > ???? Anyone know of wholistic helps for this situation? I tought of vitamin C since it is acidic and might disolve them some. > > _______________________________________________ > Felvtalk mailing list > Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org > http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org > _______________________________________________ > Felvtalk mailing list > Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org > http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
