In addition for the treatment of urinary problems in my male
cat the vet recommends a dose of vitamin-C (100 mg or less) every day.
This helps make the urine more acid, which helps prevent crystals
from forming.
The vet says any excess vitamin-C will be passed through the urine.
I have just started this because we are currently going through a
urinary infection and the antibioctics (sic) run out tomorrow.

Luckily my cat takes the pill without any fuss (or loss of blood on my part).

I am trying everything in my power not to have the little guys pecker
wacked off.

Does anyone know if urinary infections are more a problem with pure-breds?
