Common Urinary and Kidney Conditions
Some of the most common urinary conditions and symptoms we help treat are urinary tract infections, urinary crystals/bladder stones, Feline Urological Syndrome, ureteral obstruction, canine urinary incontinence and Kidney Disease:
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
UTI stands for urinary tract infection and refers to an infection of the urinary system (the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra).
UTIs are most commonly caused by bacteria, although other infectious agents may be involved. Symptoms can include:
- Increased frequency of urination •
- Difficulty urinating •
- Blood in the urine •
- Inappropriate urination •
- Straining to urinate •
- Foul odor •
Urinary Crystals and Bladder Stones
Urinary crystals and bladder stones are mineral formations that resemble rocks and form within the urinary bladder.

Feline Urological Syndrome (FUS)
Feline Urological Syndrome is a group of urinary tract disorders that affects predominantly middle-aged or older cats.

- Difficulty urinating •

Ureteral Obstruction
Ureteral obstruction in dogs refers to a blockage or partial blockage of the ureters, which are the tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.

- Vomiting •
- Lethargy •

Incontinence
Incontinence is the inability to control the bladder or bowels, leading to involuntary urine or fecal leakage.
Causes: Urinary incontinence is more common than fecal incontinence and can be caused by factors such as urinary tract infections, bladder stones, urinary sphincter dysfunction or hormonal imbalances. Fecal incontinence can be caused by neurological disorders or other underlying medical conditions affecting the rectum or anal sphincter. Symptoms can include:
- Dribbling urine •
- Wet spots on Bedding/Floors •
- Frequent urination •
- Straining during bowel movements •
Kidney Disease
Kidney disease is a condition where the kidneys are not functioning properly, resulting in an accumulation of waste products and toxins in the bloodstream.

- Increased thirst and urination •
