3 Simple Tips to Prevent Urinary Tract Infections in Cats

A sure sign that your cat has a urinary tract infection is seeing him straining to urinate when in his litter box. This is often accompanied by vocalizing and eventually abandoning the litter box altogether.

What can you do to prevent urinary tract infections in cats? The most important thing you need to do is take your feline friend in to see a veterinarian immediately. This situation can be life threatening if not caught in time and treated effectively. What are some things you can do at home to try to prevent urinary tract infections from happening with your cat?

  1. Herbal remedies. Try herbs such as hydrangea, gravel root and corn silk. These are all effective at acidifying the urine and possibly dissolving any existing bladder stones.
  2. Ample water supply. Make sure you cat has lots of opportunity to drink water throughout the day. Just like with humans, drinking enough water is critical to flushing the system out and preventing any crystal buildup in the urethra and bladder.
  3. Diet. There are foods available from your veterinarian formulated specifically to maintain good bladder health in your cat. A lot of cat foods available in the supermarket are very high in ash and can contribute to blockages.
My wife and I have a cat that came down with a urinary tract infection a couple of years ago that ended up costing us a small fortune. If we had brought him in to the vet in time, it likely would have saved us a lot of money and heartache.

We did a lot of reading about urinary tract infections in cats on the Internet and weren't entirely satisfied with what we found. We spent the next several months compiling all the most relevant information and also interviewing veterinarians in our area and around the world.

The results of our research can now be found at StopCatPeeing.com where we have many articles relating to inappropriate urination in cats. A cat that pees outside the litter box is a frustrating problem and one that could prove fatal to your cat if you don't know what to do. Do your homework and help your cat before it's too late.

Food and beverage market is central to consumer perceptions of sustainability

Consumers and Sustainability: Food and Beverage, Personal Care, Household Cleaners, and OTC Medications and Supplements The CPG markets covered are food and beverage, personal care, household cleaners, and OTC medications and supplements. Sustainability means different things to different people. Asked to identify what the term means to them, consumers most frequently respond "the ability to last over time" (76%) and "the ability to support oneself." Sustainability is also strongly associated with environmental concerns, whereby consumers are being challenged to develop and express an "eco-consciousness" in their daily habits and purchases. Thus, nearly half of consumers associate sustainability with conserving natural resources and with recycling.

A Quick Guide To Employee Orientation  - Help For Managers & HR We would not be understating the case if we said that orienting employees  to their workplaces and their jobs is one of the most neglected functions  in government.  Countless horror stories exist about how a new employee  has received a ten minute talk with the manager, and directed to his or her  office position, with no further guidance or instruction.  Not only is this  exceedingly stressful for the employee, but it virtually guarantees a very  long period of unproductiveness for the employee.  In this month's PSM Supplement we present an overview of the orientation  process, and a checklist that you can use when orienting new staff.  As  you read the article, keep in mind that orientation is also important for  existing employees if a) they have never received proper orientati...
