i’m so so sorry about your kitty. i think most of us human beings have a special love for animals, birds, etc.
since this is a kitty-centric thread, i wanted to share a little something that i hope will benefit a multitude of
kitties i’ll never know. one of my kitty katz had recurring uti issues …that’s urinary tract infection for the
uninitiated. roughly two uti's/yr. my vet would always give me a round of baytril ..a broad spectrum antibiotic
…2wks worth. i always hated she had to take it. all her good flora gutness would get killed off. i’d give her
lots of probiotics to get her back in action.
one day i was searching across the net, making phone calls, asking questions …what could i do to fix this without
resorting to baytril. i talked to a girl in the health dept at sun harvest ..she said, ‘i know exactly what
you’re dealing with, i had to deal with it, too.’ she said, ‘this is all you have to do and it’ll put an end to the uti’s. put a
little bit of apple cider vinegar, like braggs acv into her drinking water …not to much to turn your kitty off but,
a little bit and it'll change the pH of her urine’ ......so, i did and she never had another uti.
i told my vet about it at a checkup, i was so excited to tell him. he just mumbled, mumbled a little more, made a sound
sorta like a dying veterinarian all alone on the side of a steep rocky mountain with a dead cell phone. he totally blew me off.
he probably already knew but he didn’t want me to know that he knew. i guess he didn’t want to lose the baytril sales.
ps. i forgot to mention ..my vet also had her on an expensive prescription diet for her recurring uti problem. he lost the sales from that, too.
