Treating dog or cat urinary tract infections

If your dog or cat has been diagnosed with a urinary tract infection, or even if you suspect one, it is important to make sure he or she is drinking a lot of water.

This can be a bit trickier with cats than dogs, but I have had excellent success in putting a few teaspoons of tuna fish juice in the water dish.   Cats who had no interest in drinking will often lap it up.

And of course be vigilant in making sure that the water dish is cleaned well twice a day.
