Symptoms of UTI infections in dogs & cats
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) in dogs & cats are uncomfortable and extremely painful. They tend to be more common in cats than dogs and can be caused by bacterial infection, urolithiasis (stones and crystals in the urinary tract and bladder) or a change in urinary pH (alkaline or acidity value) that may cause inflammation of the bladder wall. Recurring UTI infections are common in pets with diabetes. UTIs often recur and can lead to more serious kidney infections if left untreated.
Symptoms of UTI infections include:
Straining to urinate
Obvious pain or discomfort when urinating
Constantly licking their genitals
Frequent urination without passing much urine
Urinating in unusual places
Cloudy or bloody urine
Fever and loss of condition
Conventional treatment of UTI’s will depend on the specific cause of the problem. In many cases, antibiotics are prescribed which invariably relieve the animal’s symptoms rather speedily. However antibiotics tend to have a general weakening effect on the immune system which can cause further problems, especially in the long-term and particularly if they are prescribed regularly for recurrent infections. Anti-inflammatories are also prescribed to relieve discomfort and decrease inflammation of the bladder.
Additionally, your vet may prescribe a specific urinary diet for your pet. This is often indicated in cases of crystals in the bladder, The diets work by changing the pH of the urine to either become less or more acidic. Some, but not all crystals can be dissolved if the correct diet is found – but in certain cases surgical removal of the stones and crystals may be the only option.
The natural way
Water is the best preventative for bladder problems. The more fresh cool water your pet drinks, the more dilute his or her urine will become and the less likely infection or bladder stones are to develop. Leave fresh bowls of cool water around the house to promote drinking. You can even add water to pet food or dry food to supplement water intake. Encourage your dog to urinate frequently – try walks outside, or letting them play in the garden. Animals who are made to wait to urinate are at more risk for bladder problems. Try cutting a doggie door, or ask someone else to let them outside if you are at work. Lastly, as bladder infections are common, keep your pet’s immune system in tip-top shape by following healthy nutrition (organic where possible) and giving them plenty of exercise, fresh air and sunshine!
How can UTI-Free help?
UTI-Free is a selected combination of homeopathic ingredients specially formulated to safely and effectively treat the causes and the symptoms of urinary tract and bladder infections in pets. UTI-Free comes in tiny granules and is easy to administer to pets, reducing or eliminating the need for repeated antibiotic treatment.
What are the Ingredients?
UTI-Free contains the following 100% active homeopathic ingredients in therapeutic pet-friendly dosage:
Berberis (D3) This widely studied herb contains berberine as a main constituent. Berberine is a recognized antibacterial agent and has been shown to kill amoebae in test tube studies. It also prevents bacteria from attaching to cell walls, reduces inflammation and strengthens immune functioning, thereby warding off infection and acting as a preventative as well as a natural antibiotic. Berberis also helps to treat the symptoms of diarrhea, especially if related to E.Coli infection.
Cantharis (6C) is prescribed homeopathically for a variety of conditions, including severe cystitis and the burning urine associated with bladder infections, as well as the inability to pass more than a few drops of urine at a time.
Staphysagris (6C) is a proven homeopathic remedy also recommended for urogenital problems such as cystitis, as well as urine retention sometimes associated with prostate problems.
Sucrose: inactive ingredient.
UTI-Free contains no gluten, artificial flavours, colours or preservatives. Our products are animal-cruelty free. Individual ingredients are well-researched and are natural, safe and effective.
How do I use UTI-Free?
UTI-Free comes in convenient dissolvable granule form. The tiny granules are easy to administer to animals of all sizes and personalities and are simply sprinkled on the back of the tongue and left to dissolve. Alternatively, they can be mixed with a little wet food or a treat. No fuss and bother!
Dosage:
Cats and small dogs: Large pinch of granules sprinkled into the mouth.

Management tips for UTI/bladder infections in dogs & cats
Make sure that your pet has plenty of clean, filtered water. Cats can be fussy drinkers and may only want to drink from a running tap, out of your glass of water or from rain puddles – (such is the finicky feline). During a bladder infection encourage your pet to drink as the bladder needs to be flushed out
Make sure that you keep kitty’s litter tray clean and be cautious when changing brands of cat litter. If your feline doesn’t like his/her new cat litter they will refuse to use the litter tray and by holding urine in their bladder for an extended period of time they are predisposed to urinary tract infections
If your pet suddenly develops a urinary tract infection try and determine the cause for this. Most bladder infections are not caused by bacteria but arise due to changes in pH that cause inflammation and discomfort. A change in diet, bad weather that stops your pet going out for regular wees, or even stressful events in their home environment can trigger a bout of cystitis in an otherwise healthy pet.
Ensure your pet is eating a balanced, high quality diet with plenty of raw and unprocessed food, (preferably organic), and avoid onions as they can be toxic to animals. If your pet is on a prescription diet feed only this diet, by adding anything to it, or not feeding this as the only source of food it’s stabilising effects on the urine pH will be ineffective
Use Immunity and Liver Support capsules to boost your pet’s immune functioning and resistance against disease and infection.
