What is the best food for a male cat with crystals in his urine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Wet food is undoubtedly the best to feed a cat with crystals or known to have a UTI in the past. You can get prescription foods that help with the acid and alkaline levels in the urine which can work. Unfortunately most of this is dry food that is packed with grains and other carbohydrates - not ideal at all.

It may be best to contact your vet to see if there are any prescription wet foods. Failing that, finding a food that is free of Corn, Wheat, Cereals, Soy and various Sugars is ideal. You can also add extra water to your cat's food so he is thoroughly hydrated.

Another way to increase water intake is to leave a tap on, or purchase a pet water fountain. Many cats are fickle when it comes to water and will only drink fresh moving water. A running tap or fountain keeps water constantly moving and fresh, and both methods are very successful in enticing a cat to drink more water.

Cats are shampooed are they conditioned?

Asked by Wiki User

Cats are usually not conditioned after they're shampooed. This is because cats bathe by licking themselves, and the chemicals in human conditioners are made to cling to the hair, making this a poisonous process for cats who would then lick their hair.

If a kitten gets dropped in water will it stunt its growth?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Though unlikely to permanently stunt growth, dropping a kitten in water can cause immediate issues like hypothermia and shock, as well as long-term problems like ear infections and respiratory issues. Always remove the kitten promptly and monitor for any signs of illness. Consider alternatives like misting or a shallow bath instead.

Is a dog better than a cat for a girl?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is my opinion, I think cats are better pets than dogs. They both are the cutest thing in the world and both have lost of things in common, but cats will not leave you ever! I had a cat and it died :( I was really sad about that. He was poisoned. When ever I was sad he was with me on my bed, kind of like asking me why I was sad. Now I only have 1 cat left. I hope he stays with us for a long time. But I know 100% they love us. When Nidya (the undead cat) leaves to go outside, when I call his name he comes running home. I love my cats....

Can you contact herpes through a cat scratch?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, humans cannot contract feline or human herpes from a cat in any way, shape or form. Only cats can contract Feline Herpes Virus (more commonly known as an acute upper respiratory disease) and is usually spread through direct contact (secretions from the eyes and nose) or indirect contact (Contact with infected food bowls, litter trays, bedding etc., which have been in contact with an infected cat).

This virus is most common in kittens, cats in stressed/overcrowded environments. Kittens and older cats are more at risk than healthy adults, and are also at a greater risk of dying. Once a cat has contracted the virus, it becomes a carrier. A times of stress or ill-health it is possible for it to re-surface, but some cats can live all their lives without another outbreak.

Will cats die if they eat orbeez?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Orbeez beads are completely non toxic, so there is no fear of poisoning, and have no ability to clump together, so there is no fear of blockage. The beads will actually grow smaller within the intestine, due to less water surrounding the bead, and should simply pass right through the animals system within a day or two. We always recommend calling your vet if you feel you have any remaining concerns for your animals health.

Are cats a natural enemy of reptiles?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cats are carnivorous predators and possess natural hunting instincts. While they may view reptiles like lizards and snakes as prey, being an enemy depends on the individual cat's hunting inclination and the size of the reptile. Some cats may be indifferent or wary around reptiles, while others may actively seek to hunt them. It is always advisable to keep pet reptiles securely housed to prevent any potential harm from cats or other predators.

What is a home of a cat called?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The home of a cat is called a cattery. This term can be used to refer to the home of a pet cat, or to a commercial business that houses cats for boarding, breeding, or other purposes.

Which term you use may depend on the context. For example, you might call a cat's bed a "cat house," even though this term can also be used to refer to a commercial cattery. Or, you might call a cat's outdoor enclosure a "catio," which is a combination of the words "cat" and "patio."

How do boy cats wee?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sometimes, a cat will spray urine on certain items out of anger or frustration. If a cat is suddenly left alone after being used to spending most of his time with people or other cats, he may react by spraying urine. It is not really about retaliation, but is a cat's normal response to change and stress. If a cat becomes fearful such as if a large dog suddenly joins the household, he may also react by spraying urine.

How much do kittens need to weigh before they can be spayed?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Please don't de-claw your cat. You shouldn't remove the cat's main defense. This practice is considered cruel in many places around the world, and in the U.K I'm pretty sure it's outlawed. You should consider trimming it's claws, or putting special caps on their tips. If you MUST de-claw your cat, check with a vet to make sure you don't de-claw it too early. Every cat is different and has different needs.

How do you help a stressed cat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

ANSWER

If it's a new cat then time, patience, talking to it, giving it love and attention but not over stimulating it

They will soon calm down and start to trust you

If its a cat you've had for a while, make sure there's no changes to its environment, life, food, toys, death, etc. and again all the same as before and maybe even a trip to the vet (and of course all of the above too.)

You can also try Rescue Remedy by Bach Flower Essences. It has worked great for me in my cat rescue work! Your local green grocer probably stocks it.
