Cystitis in cats is a common pet disease. It affects the function of the cat's bladder, causing symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency and urinary incontinence. However, cystitis in cats can cause more serious problems, such as not being able to urinate. If your cat suffers from this condition, how should you deal with it?
First, you should look for the cause and go to the veterinary clinic as soon as possible. Cystitis in cats can be caused by many factors, such as bacterial infections, stones, or other medical problems. The veterinarian can make an accurate diagnosis and then give the corresponding treatment plan.
Second, you can try some home treatments to help your cat relieve symptoms. These methods include letting the cat drink enough water to increase the amount of urine production and helping to flush the bladder; reducing the cat's stress level, because stress is a factor in cat cystitis; allowing the cat to temporarily use dry feed to reduce bladder irritation; giving the cat some natural herbs, such as berries, astragalus, enoki mushrooms, etc., helping to enhance their immunity and reduce the occurrence of bacterial infections. Finally, you also need to keep an eye on your cat’s condition and make sure it gets plenty of quiet and comfortable rest time. If the symptoms persist, you should go to the veterinary clinic in time. A vet may perform bladder perfusion to help your cat get rid of urine and perform other treatments if necessary. In short, cystitis in cats can cause serious problems, including inability to urinate. If you notice this happening to your cat, you should go to the veterinary clinic as soon as possible and take some home treatments based on your doctor’s advice to help your cat relieve symptoms. At the same time, you also need to always keep an eye on your cat's condition and make sure it gets plenty of quiet and comfortable rest time.
