Vet's Best Cat Urinary Tract Support Chewable Tablets, UTI Support, 60 ct

I have been a cat owner for literally years and years! Never before have I had a cat that had a UTI. Our two year old cat got a very painful and messy UTI. It took my daughter noticing some behavioral differences in him before we realized he was having a serious problem. I'm disabled and on disability, so I'm not able to face a huge vet bill. My daughter and I looked on Amazon to see what natural medicines were out there. We looked at the reviews on each product as well. It was on a Friday, so we also knew that we wouldn't receive the medicine until the next week. We both decided on this product to order based on the contents of the medicine and the reviews. My daughter continued searching online for a possible home remedy until we received this medicine. She found a site where a lady gave her cat a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in the water and soft food that her cat would eat and drink. So we followed that course to get our cat through the weekend. It didn't cure his UTI, but it did seem to help a little. We had to keep him in the bathroom so he would be near his water, food, and litter box. The horrible part was finding red spots on the floor, and in the bath tub, where our cat was urinating, meaning he had blood in his urine. We have two other cat's also, so we would leave them in at night time so they would have easy access to everything and keep our sick cat company as well. As soon as we received this medicine I immediately cut the tablet into four pieces and gave them to my cat. To my surprise he ate them right up! I was so relieved that we didn't have to add them to expensive soft food for him. We received the medicine on Monday and gave our cat two tablets, one in the afternoon and one before bed. We've continued giving him one tablet in the morning and one tablet in the evening. On Tuesday I allowed him to be on my bed, but my daughter and I would take him to the bathroom during the day so he'd eat, drink, and use his litter box. He was still crying out in pain and licking his privates. By Wednesday he was starting to play with our other two cats, but we were still taking him to the bathroom. By Thursday he was leaving my bed on his own and going to the bathroom where his food, water, and litter box were. Today is Friday, and he's playing, running around, and acting like his normal self. This medicine has saved us from an hour and a half trip one way to the vet, and a huge vet bill. It has cleared up our cat's UTI without antibiotics. I am so very grateful for this medicine! I believe it has saved our cat's life, and saved us a ton of money at the same time. I've also ordered a couple of books on natural remedies for cat's and dog's for future reference. I highly recommend this as an alternative way to cure a feline UTI!

I have an 8 year old large male maine coon cat and he had been having a UTI. I decided to put him on these pills and he immediately stopped having trouble going to the bathroom and returned to normal. The pills ran out and I thought he was cured so I didnt get him anymore of them. Within a month, he got another UTI and had a bunch of crytals in his urine. It was almost a blockage which was a very expensive vet bill. I decided to put him back on these pills again and he hasnt had a problem since. They will definitely be a staple in my cat's diet from here on out. 1 pill per day seems to do the trick even though he wants more of them. The pills are pretty big so if your cat is small you'll need to cut them in half. But my cat has no problem getting them down. This is truly a GREAT product. I'd rather pay $36 bucks a year to get these pills rather than end up with a $500-$600 vet bill down the road. UPDATE - VetsBest has changed these pills somehow, and now my cat will not eat them. The prior bottles had bought all said "Formulated by Dawn Curie Thomas" - but the last batch I bought the bottle did not say that, and I looked on the ingredients and they changed around a few of the inactive ingredients. I believe this change my cat has picked up on with his nose and now he will not eat them. I went to the Vets Best website and they also have this new bottle. It's unfortunate, but I do not think I think buy these anymore since they apparently discontinued the Dawn Curie Thomas version.

I suggest, before you treat your pet, please have them seen by qualified Vet if they have ongoing UTI. UTI in a cat can be deadly and nothing to experiment with with products such as these. A cat can be in renal failure, bladder stones, crystals etc... My cat had struvite crystals and a complete blockage about 2 years ago which with the help of my vet, we cleared up changing his diet for the time being Royal Canin S/O. After my cat was diagnosed 2 months ago with stressed induced cystitis (diagnosed by vet), in combination with Feliway and Wellness Complete Health canned food, I am using this product as well. I was buying from a local pet store which sells this for $11 but am able to find cheaper online. The product seems to work very well and I am pleased. I give my cat (Jeter), 2 tablets daily, once in the morning and once at night. I don’t have to mix in the food, he eats it as is. However, the ability to crumble the tablets from bottle to bottle is a bit of a mystery. The first bottle I ever purchased, I was able to quarter it with my own fingers. The next bottle I received the tablet was hard like a rock and I had to use a rather large knife (butcher) to break it apart, on a towel actually banging on the knife to split it. The product is very good but I will give “four” stars due to the inconsistency of breaking the tablet apart. Someone also brought up a concern on some of the ingredients are not good for long term, which concerns me so “all natural” does not mean no side effects and to give liberally. I personally would not give more than 2 tablets daily. If you have to do this, please see your Vet. I think a better diet (high quality cat food), well hydrated cat should help an otherwise healthy cat. If your cat has struvite crystals, I would not depend on this product to cure this. Please see your vet and don’t “forum diagnose” your cat. Not everything is cured with a pill but again, a supplement can help an otherwise healthy cat. Cat's with UTI, stay away from dry cat food. That will be part of the battle won.

Holy moly these will save me a LOT of money in vet bills! I bought a fancy water fountain with a filter a few weeks ago and only recently discovered that the water should be changed much more regularly than every 2 weeks (as recommended by the instructions). I change the water every 5 days now (and the filter every 2 weeks) because my cat caught a really bad urinary tract infection. I should have realised something was up because he started to lick the furniture, trying to tell me he was thirsty and couldn't drink from his fountain anymore, and he was peeing abnormally/too frequently/sometimes nothing left behind when he left his litter pan. So I took him to the vet for urinalysis (which the vet couldn't get from the cat because his bladder was too swollen) and that night he had blood in his pee. I was very freaked out! The next day the vet was concerned he needed an operation to remove a crystal and to get a urine sample at home and wait for the results. I had this feeling that he just had a severe UTI and got him these tablets, at the very least to improve his kidneys even if he had stones. I couldn't get his urine sample for 3 days but by the time I got it he'd been on these tablets for 2 days. Within 6 hours of his first tablet he stopped wailing in pain before needing to pee, so I knew they were working. By the second day he was peeing normally again. By the third day I got his sample and rushed it over to the vets. He came out all clear with only a few indicators of small crystals but nothing to warrant surgery yet. His infection was cured. I now have him on a tablet a day, which he LOVES and eats with a ferocity Ive never seen before. The ingredients really impressed me too - all natural, herbal plant medicine. These tablets work wonders and I'm so grateful I didn't need to put him on antibiotics. He's caught UTIs before and it always cost me a lot of money in vet bills and meds. I won't need to worry about that again.

I recently started giving my two cats the Vet's Best Cat Urinary Tract Support Chewables, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results! One of my cats has had recurring urinary tract issues, and finding a reliable supplement has been a priority. These chewables have been a lifesaver in maintaining their urinary tract health. From the first week of use, I noticed a positive change. My cat who used to have frequent issues now seems much more comfortable and healthier. The chews are easy to administer, and both of my cats love the taste, which makes it stress-free to ensure they get their daily dose. The ingredients in the chewables are natural and high-quality, providing me with peace of mind knowing that I'm giving my cats a safe and effective supplement. The instructions are clear, and the packaging is convenient, making it easy to keep track of their daily intake. Overall, I highly recommend Vet's Best Cat Urinary Tract Support Chewables to any cat owner looking to support their pet's urinary health. They have made a significant difference in my cats' well-being, and I am extremely satisfied with the results!

Pros: I want to start off by saying that this product has reduced UTIs in my male cat. UTIs are extremely painful and can quickly rack up a vet bill. I was able to take him off of c/d food and put him on a higher quality food + UT Support without him getting anymore infections. He finds the tablets palatable and can easily eat them when I cut them in half with a pill cutter. My cat was UTI free with only half a pill in the morning and the other half at night. Cons: This is not for everyday use. This product needs a warning label for animals with kidney disease or pets taking medications. You really need to be aware of the ingredients in these tablets. All of the 10 active ingredients have diuretic properties. This is harsh on the kidneys and you need to consult your vet before giving it to your cat. Cats that have kidney problems, (which many older felines do) more than likely should not be taking this tablet. The herb Slippery Elm has a lots of good qualities with the exception that it lines the digestive tract and can inhibit the absorption of medications. To avoid this, the tablet should be eaten 2 hours before or after other medications. Lastly, the herb Uva Ursi has great anti-UTI properties, however the chemical in it, hydroquinone, can cause liver damage and is not recommended for long term use. I have contacted the maker of this product, Vet's Best, twice to inquire about the uva ursi and if it is safe in the dose they recommend for long term use. I have yet to receive a response. Please do some research and consult your veterinarian. 2016 UPDATE: A vet tech confirmed that uva ursi should not be taken longer than 7-14 days. Extreme caution to cats with kidney disease. I do not give my cat these tablets anymore. They have changed the flavoring ingredients and he will no longer eat them. Consider putting your pet on wet food or adding broth (bone, chicken) to their diet. Make sure broth does not have garlic, onions, artificial ingredients (buy organic too) or added salt as this can be problem causing.

Both of our cats are very loved and taken care of, and are considered a part of the family. Each boy have some kind of urinary tract condition, with older having struvite crystals (under control), and younger has feline interstitial cystitis (bladder inflammation). For younger cat the vet gave life-long prescription to a steroid, saying that he has to be on it for the rest of his life, as it will keep him comfortable and keep the inflammation in check. We went through initial treatment, but I ended up weaning him off the steroid as I just can't do this to him - I am not a vet but I do not think that keeping a cat on steroids for life is a good solution. After doing more research on the condition myself, and some internal battles, I thought that I'd try finding something else. I tried a few other products without noticing much difference, but with THIS ONE we hit a jackpot! We got our cat back. Energy level increased drastically, as well as his appetite and weight are back to normal (he lost some weight due to lack of appetite, probably due to urinary discomfort). The cat is lively, energetic and full of life, and I couldn't ask for more. Of course, based on my research, I also added extra litter box in another location, as well as additional water bowl in a different spot in the house. I am thrilled with results, and we are finishing our second bottle of the supplement. The only drawback to me is that the pills are very large and hard, you can't break them in pieces by hand, and have to cut them instead, but its such an insignificant trade off!! Instead of taking steroids for the rest of his life, my kitty is enjoying treats! I do want to make a disclaimer though: I am not saying that you should not follow your vets instructions - please do! But if you have a kitty with any kind of urinary tract condition, please consider adding this to their diet - both of you will be glad you did!!

I was in love with this product. It helped my female cat who has an issue with her urine pH being too high causing crystals and sometimes blood. This has no cause that the vet can find. Trust me, I've tried everything to lower her pH including other supplements and herbal concoctions. Nothing has worked. She's already on a high quality wet food only grain free diet (and has been her whole life). I monitor her urine with pH strips daily so anytime I noticed it getting too high or noticed her making frequent litter box trips, I'd give her a dose of these which she readily ate and enjoyed by themselves. They helped so much. The label and inactive ingredients have changed (see pictures) in the newer bottles and now she won't touch the tablets, even mixed into her food. PLEASE GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL FORMULATION! Original excellent product inactive ingredients: Chicken (dried), Liver (Defatted Pork), Natural Flavorings, Stearic Acid and Yeast (Torula). New untouchable formulation inactive ingredients: Cellulose, Liver Powder, Magnesium Stearate, Natural Flavor, Yeast. The whole point of buying a product like this is to have the cats want to take it so that it helps them. Whatever the reason for changing the formula is not worth the cost of it being completely disgusting to my category now. I would gladly pay more per bottle to have the original formula. I am so disappointed. It was one of the only things that worked to help my cat through her flare ups. I could cry I'm so upset that something that worked no longer does.

El producto es muy caro y aún no he notado diferencia en mi gato, lleva una semana tomándolo porque empezó a hacerse afuera de su arenero sin una razón aparente. No sé si valga la pena volver a adquirirlo. Lo que sí es que se lo come muy bien, no batallo en dárselo. Intentaré con chanca piedra.

Very good and worked for my cats. They used to pee outside their litter.

Fine

Gut

These chewable tablets are great and seem to do exactly what they're intended to do, this is the 2nd order of 2 bottles that I've purchased and will continue to order as needed, my cat was diagnosed with bladder crystals 3 1/2 years ago and we were told that he would need a surgery costing upwards of $2200 along with the vets $90 a bag food and they could not guarantee the surgery would be successful, I researched for days among different products and landed on this one to try. It works 100% as it says, after my cat willingly eating the first bottle by recommended dosage without having to trick him into doing so, we brought him back to the vet to have them test and check on his condition again and to our suprise he was given the all clear, the crystals had broken down and cleared up, now I have them on hand at all times and he eats them like treats, would absolutely recommend!
