Blocked cat? Struggling to urinate? Can't urinate? UTI? This video shows how to treat your cat at home and avoid the the high cost of veterinary care.
One additional tip that I should have included in the video is to administer the apple cider vinegar into the side of the cat's mouth. This will help minimize risk of aspirating it into their lungs.
I worked as a Veterinary Technician for 4 years. This is what we would tell people who couldn't afford professional care to try.

This is what I did likewise: Rub Organic raw unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar with "the Mother" on their fur (cat's sides) or the top of their paws. They will lick it off. Use at least two tablespoons in a day or if necessary a few days in an emergency for cats. For very young cats reduce that amount to one tablespoon. For kittens use only a teaspoon. Rub the organic apple cider vinegar on each side of their fur or the top of their paws until you see them have relief. Remember to shake the bottle first. If you have a wild cat that doesn’t take orders, then douse him with a good bit in a small glass. A lot will bead of his fur. Also, they will not be able to lick off the entirety of it all at once. Organic apple cider vinegar will start to go into immediate action for the cat to get relief from the blockage. It saved my cat that was pissing blood and then could not pee while squatting all the time. Also, it helps get rid of UTI bacteria; Walmart sells it. Ideally, it is best to use organic apple cider vinegar because it tastes rather good and is much more tolerable for the cat to ingest it compared to the filtered kind which tastes horrible. Remember only to use the organic apple cider vinegar as necessary. Too much too often could lead to an ulcer. From my experience a couple tablespoons a week has not hurt my cat. If it is a real emergency you could go beyond that just do not let it come to a habit of more than that each week. Keep in mind; you will likely have reoccurring bouts with this for a while. That is why I recommend some other preventative measures as you read on below: Keep in mind that it is important to ensure cats, when feeling normal, get enough water to keep their system flowing. Ensure they eat wet cat food over dry for the moisture content, Consider temporarily stopping the cat from eating dry food or even permanently if necessary. Too much dry food leads to blockages with lack of hydration compared to canned cat food. Try putting some added bit of water in their wet food. Avoid salty meats if they are having this problem. Salty meats or salty canned food meats like tuna will stop up your cat for sure! If you use clay litter make sure you use the unscented. Scented can irritate their pee track with synthetic chemicals leading to inflammation and UTI blockages. Never use clumping litter for cats; it can lead to blockages because cats can ingest it much easier. That can cause ingestion of sludge and bacteria leading to inflammation and UTI’s. Clumping litter is known to be extremely dangerous for kittens and not good for cats in general. Buy only fragrant free non-clumping litter, and then add one heaping tablespoon of baking soda mixed in per 10 pounds of cat litter that you use. It will naturally neutralize the smell; Just do not go beyond that because baking soda is really high in salt which is dangerous for cats if they ingest it more than a tiny amount by licking their paws each time using the litter box. I have used it for my cat and it works well, he actually prefers this litter combination. Baking soda is known to help aid and help get rid of UTI’s. Never give it to your cat other than in the litter! Additionally, use feline pine litter and add it to your litter with several handfuls to add a nice fragrant smell. A little goes a long way to just supplement the litter. Also, consider buying "cranimals" from amazon. It is a cranberry extract that helps the kidneys and gets rid of UTI problems. Put 1/4 teaspoon in two small cans of wet cat food or equivalent to that with one big can. You can also wash out an old salt and peppershaker to sprinkle a decent amount in their food. Any amount more than that I have noticed they will not eat it. Putting cranimals cranberry powder in their food will help keep their pee acidic to break down crystals. Additionally, "Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth" helps assist in UTI treatment sold on Amazon. It is a "diuretic" thus helps people and animals urinate 30% more to empty the bladder to keep crystals from forming. Completely safe for cats with no limitations of consumption and has no salt in it. Cats tolerate it because it has almost no taste. Just be careful not to breathe it in by getting it dusted up in the air because it is dangerous to breathe it in. Make sure to only use "Food Grade."Use at least about 1/4 teaspoon per small can wet cat food. Lastly, I have learned of a brand called "tinkle tonic" from chewy or amazon that some claim helped their cats. Finally, consider your cat’s stress level. Stress could be another factor that can lead to inflammation of the bladder area. Try to ensure he has enough to do to keep happy.

I can not live in a house full of cat pee….I’m desperate for him to get better.

And the after three days i woke up 4 am then i got up and prepared myself for the worst, then i saw a lot of blood everywhere in the house than i look in the bathroom and saw my cat while peeing blood! So i woke my husband up crying and say Ginger is peeing and hes gonna be okay! He continue to pee bloody urine for 2 days and then it became normal. We started buying urinary tract catfood and then it didnt come back anymore. This video really helped me.

You just saved my cat Marley! This worked within 1 hour. He was totally blocked and had been for 2 days! The vets were all closed as it is a weekend and a small farm town. I gave him 5 mL undiluted and within an hour a small drop of pee. 1 hr later I gave him another 5 mL and a half hour later a huge lake of pee all over the bathroom floor like a flood let loose! Totally a miracle as he was shaking and crying out in agony and I feared he would have a bladder rupture and die. It was heart wrenching. Thank you so much from the bottom of my family’s hearts!!!❤️❤️❤️

I am a vet tech since 1999 so first ….good suggestions. Now some for you. To prevent you from getting scratched when giving the apple cider vinegar wrap the cat in a towel. Another thing to be aware of is that there is a school of thought that stress adds to this issue. So as much stress as you can remove from your cat”s environment the better. You can use pheromones,cbd oil or catnip to help.

Be cautious about using herbal remedies to calm cats... Cats can't process a lot of the chemicals in plants like we do because they are obligate carnivores. Many oils that are relaxing to humans are poison to cats. Also, some cats actually have a paranoid reaction to cat nip, so if your cat is pne of those, don't. But yeah most relax on it.

Can it be damaging to give him if his kidneys aren't functioning possibly? Like will the vinegar build up in his system and be toxic? Thanks.

My 14 year old male cat, "Honey Cookie" had a blockage 3 days ago. We spent a lot of money for treatment but it didn't work. I was looking for a place to open on New Year's Eve to put him down to stop his suffering and spend a miserable, sad, beginning of the year for my family and me.. Someone sent me your video and tried the acv asap. Honey Cookie made it! After 6 hours, he peed 3 times already and he's back to normal!!! He's hungry and eating well. Thank you very much from the bottom of our hearts from my husband and kids. There are no words to thank you, really, no words to thank you specially at this time of the year. I will share this video to family and friends to help other kitties on similar situations. Obviously every case is different but it worked wonders for us.

Hi Farm Dad, I just wanted to say thank you. You saved my 9 Year old boy. He has suffered from urinary blockages for so so long and had so many surgeries. He was completely blocked and barely urinating and when he did it was bloody. I didn’t want to put him through yet another surgery so I administered 5ml 3x today (he’s a very large cat) and sure enough he passed three stones. I even took him to the vet after to Make sure they were all passed and sure enough with ultrasound they confirmed he was crystal free. I told them of your method and they were so impressed and said they would even recommend it to clients. Thank you. You saved his life ❤

Earlier this year, my cat had to go to the vet for a complete blockage. He was at the vet for days with a catheter and spent over $1500. Within a month he slipped out the door and I haven’t seen him since. It was devastating. Now my other cat is having trouble urinating and I’m having PTSD. I love my cat, but I can’t fathom spending that much again. I got him antibiotics but they haven’t seemed to help much. They’ve just kept him from being completely blocked. I just picked up some apple cider vinegar and administered the first dose. Hoping for some relief by the time we wake up. When I was 18, I rescued a dog from the pound and at eight weeks she developed parvo, when I took her to the vet, the vet said she needed to stay and get IV fluids, and that it would be at least $1000. I pleaded with the vet and told her I couldn’t afford it. She told me I shouldn’t have a dog if I can’t afford the treatments. It traumatized me, and I think that’s a terrible attitude. I think my cat and dog are much happier with me than on the streets. He’s happy and his basic needs are taken care of. Just because I can’t afford a new transmission doesn’t mean I don’t deserve a car. You never know what’s going to happen. Anyways, I found someone saying they had used Kaopectate and Pedialyte and their dog made a full recovery. I tried it and within 12 hours, my dog was so much better. She ended up living for 15 more years. So I really appreciate you doing this video. It’s not about being lazy or not wanting your pet to have the best care.

My cat almost died from a blocked bladder when he was only 9 months. Since then he’s had them on and off, always had to go to the vet for it. I noticed it yesterday, no pee at all when he was in the box. I gave him some cbd hoping to relax him and help him go, then found this video. I gave him a couple ml of apple cider, and some extra water in his food. Assumed he would have to go to the vet today. Woke up this morning and he peed like a faucet was on! This just saved us.

I just wanted to thank you very much for posting this. I took my cat into the vet for two issues, one of them was blockage. The vet didn't seem to think there was an issue or didn't see one and sent my cat home. When I called back an hour later telling them he still was straining they said, "well, you can bring him back in" that was after I spent $1000. SOOO MADDENING. Long story longer, I treated my cat with 450mg Apple cider vinegar pills. Opened up the capsule and gave half of it in a small quarter size bit of wet cat food. He ate it no problem. Gave him the second half a littler later. When I got up this morning, I noticed my cat pee' d a little in his box. After about 20 mins of him being out of his crate, he pee' d outside like a trucker!!!! You saved me not only a couple of hours at the vet, but about 1200-1400 dollars. I have two older cats, 14 and 15 y/o. I will no be adding this apple cider vinegar to my list of miracle supplements for my keeks. L-Lysine is a great supplement to keep your kitties healthy. I also give them cranberry, from gel pill, in their food on occasion.

Thank you very much to the creator of this video. I did this yesterday on my cat. The first time my cat was blocked I panicked and I had no idea why he could not pee, so I took him to the Vet and was hit with a 1,100 bill. The second time my cat got blocked, I decided to go the ACV route. It took a whole 24 hours for the vinegar to truly kick in. Yesterday he was peeing maybe a drop, this morning there were entire pools of pee all around my house. Thank you again, sir! I probably couldn't have afforded a second Vet bill. Also, I have begun giving my cat "farmina urinary wet cat food" he loves it and it seems to help with his urethra. Thank you again and i hope everyone's cat makes a full recovery!

Hello! My cat was diagnosed with UTI last November 21. On November 29, he got blocked with “sand” as the vet said when we rushed him in as an emergency. That was his first catheterization. On Dec. 9, he got fever and struggled with peeing. He had an infection and was catheterized the 2nd time. We took him home last December 20 with hopes of a continuous recovery, especially since we spent around 30,000 Philippine pesos already. (The Philippines is currently experiencing a high inflation rate and the peso is at a low value too.) However, yesterday, he doesn’t want to drink and eat at all. Again, we took him to the vet and the vet said he had sore genitals and if he doesn’t pee again, he will be catheterized for the 3rd time. We made a decision to not pursue that and just take him home with anti-inflamm medication, with thoughts that my cat will mostly likely die already. Today, he was struggling with his peeing and I stumbled upon your video. My mom, who has been supporting my broke college-student-but-loving-meowmy agenda with patience, bought Apple Cider Vinegar with “the Mother.” I gave my cat 5ml of it and oh my, after an hour, he was able to pee again. He also ate wet recovery food after having no appetite since yesterday. Thank you so much. I hope this will continue and my cat can live more. I hope we can still be together for a while. Thank you so much. 💜 EDIT 2023.02.08: After more than 2 months of suffering urinary issues and urinary blockage, my cat is back to his normal playful self. He is a warrior!

Im a vet in South Africa and agreed that vet bills are very high in the US. I'm a little sceptical of this treatment but also interested that so many people have posted a positive response. When a cat is taken to a vet with this problem it gets sedated and a urine cather passed into the bladder to remove the obstruction. Even with sedation and the correct equipment it can be hard to remove the obstruction. (The obstruction can be made up of crystals, mucus, blood, proteins and other stuff). There is a condition in cats called idiopathic cystitis where there is no physical obstruction but an irritated bladder and urge to urinate. It's not life threatening like a true blockage as cats can still pass urine. Maybe the cat in this video (and the comments) are suffering from cystitis and not a true blockage? There are a lot of questions raised by this video that would make for an interesting discussion: 1. Most websites state the vinegar although acidic creates an alkaline urine when broken down in the body 2. Urine crystals are generally made up of magnesium-ammonium-phosphate that are dissolved in acid urine not alkaline urine 3. Some crystals are made up of calcium-oxalate that are dissolved in alkaline urine 4. Cats that are already blocked should not respond to changing the pH of their urine as the blockage has already formed 5. Many comments state that the treatment worked within minutes, this indicates that urine pH changed within minutes and dissolved the obstruction 6. Be careful when squirting vinegar into your cats mouth, if that gets into the lungs you will have another serious problem 7. Surely it needs to be heavily diluted, straight vinegar is seriously acidic and may even harm your cats mouth and stomach. Has Farmer Dad made a really interesting breakthrough in treatment? Are the cats truly blocked? Does vinegar have some other action that we dont understand? WARNING: If your cat is truly blocked and cannot urinate then toxic substances build up in the blood which become life threatening.

This saved my baby girl Mushu. She had been blocked for weeks. It’s a miracle she was able to survive all that time. I’m assuming since she’d been blocked for a long time that that’s the reason it took about 12hrs for this treatment to finally unblock all the crystallization. She’s back to her normal self now. Thank you!!

Excuse me, may I ask how many doses did you give your cat? Mine has been blocked for the past two days and he's so weak and slow right now. He doesn't eat nor drink. I gave him two doses of 5ml this morning and it's been 4hours since and nothing happens. I wonder if I should give him more or wait to see if the acv is gonna work? The vets in my country says he can die in the following 48hours and that hospitalization, catheter and etc is the ONLY solution for this case, or... Euthanasia. I don't ever want to do euthanasia, never, I'm not going to kill my cat. Please, answer if you can.

I’m so glad I found this video. My 3 year old boy cat had a blockage and I took him to the ER. They recommend keeping him for 48 hours with a catheter and on fluids. The catheter ended up blocking too and the vet had to unblock it. Her recommendation was to keep him there for a third day to see how it goes or to spend money on a PU surgery to shorten his urethra which would reduce future blocking down to 20%. The vet said that since the catheter blocked the chances of another block when he got home was highly likely. I decided against the surgery and also against keeping him at the vet for a third day. I brought him home after 48 hours at the vet. The cost for 2 days was $5,100. I syringe fed him a 50/50 mixture of ACV and water. 12 hours passed and he urinated 3 times in 5 minutes. A little bit of crystalline substance came out of his urethra. Moving forward he will be on wet food. Thank you so much for posting this! I can’t imagine forcing him to undergo surgery.

The vet was already closed so we didn't want to risk him dying overnight and decided to go ahead and take another risk and give him the acv. So we gave him acv since everyone said it works. We gave him 5mL and then an hour later another 5mL. He wasn't peeing for HOURS and I became super discouraged. 12 hours later and my cat is peeing everywhere!! He doesn't look so weak and lethargic anymore and ate 2 cans of the food that the doctor prescribed and drank some water after not eating or drinking the whole entire day prior. So far so good, hopefully he gets better and better and we won't need a second expensive vet visit either.

Sorry, I just saw your message I would fill up a 5ml syringe with a half apple cider vinegar and water ratio. Squirt as much as possible into the cat’s mouth. Try giving the syringe every 2-4 hour until they void. Our cat hated the apple cider vinegar/ water syringe. He started trying to run away every time he saw me. My husband ended up buying ALFA PET kidney support for our cat. It’s a dropper and is available on Amazon. I think it was around 30 bucks. That worked terrific we just put it in his food and he would gobble it all up. He was on it for a couple of months but he doesn’t need it daily anymore, but we still have it on hand just in case.

Thank you so much! I just spent $4K in January alone treating my cat's (Louie) urethral blockage. I knew that it will most likely reoccur and it did. The one thing I regret not doing is getting the wet prescription food. I ended up getting a kibble after the first blockage. Yesterday I noticed Louie didn't urinate all day and didn't eat his food. This time I tried diluted ACV and fed him using a syringe. To hold him steady I used the towel wrap method (learned from KZfaq as well) and aimed for the back of his throat to prevent foaming (which is normal). I also dipped his front paws in ACV (not diluted) and spread it over the sides of his body as one commenter suggested. He kept licking it which was great. It worked and I am so grateful you decided to make this video. I would like to thank you and all the participants who shared their stories and participated in the discussion. Literally, life-saving.

I've already left a comment but that was when I was asking for help so this one will be a thank you. My cat mondo started growling and hissing after using the bathroom with very little pee coming out, then after a while he wasn't able to pee at all which is an emergency. It was the weekend so no vets were open and we didn't have the money anyway. We panicked and started looking up ways we could help him at home. We rushed to the pet store to pick up the homeopet uti meds but even after a few days he still couldn't pee properly (this was before his pee stopped completely) but when he couldn't pee at all we needed to hurry so we tried this. I left a comment asking how much to give him and you got back right away so we were able to save him thank you! We gave him 2.5ml acv and 2.5ml water just like you said. after a few hours he peed again. I fell to the floor and started crying in relief we had been pacing the floor for 5 hours researching till he finally went. He has super sharp nails and will not let us cut them and get violent when you try to give him meds but we used a jean jacket (I find it works best because it's not stretchy like blankets or towels) and we got it down. Now he's on collidal silver (we got ours from Kroger) 10ml twice a day (that's 2teaspoons- NOT tablespoons) for his uti and it's working. We will only give him more acv if he is completely unable to pee again because it's not good for them to have to much but collidal silver doesn't hurt them in any way (it's very hard to overdose them on it but still don't give a ton of collidal silver) he's only 2 years old and we love him to death my dad would never recover if he had passed so we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. With such a simple video you have saved many cats that we all consider our own family ❤️

Rub Organic raw unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar with "the Mother" on their fur (cat's sides) or the top of their paws. They will lick it off. Use at least two tablespoons in a day or if necessary a few days in an emergency for cats. For very young cats reduce that amount to one tablespoon. For kittens use only a teaspoon. Rub the organic apple cider vinegar on each side of their fur or the top of their paws until you see them have relief. Remember to shake the bottle first. If you have a wild cat that doesn’t take orders, then douse him with a good bit in a small glass. A lot will bead of his fur. Also, they will not be able to lick off the entirety of it all at once. Organic apple cider vinegar will start to go into immediate action for the cat to get relief from the blockage. It saved my cat that was pissing blood and then could not pee while squatting all the time. Also, it helps get rid of UTI bacteria; Walmart sells it. Ideally, it is best to use organic apple cider vinegar because it tastes rather good and is much more tolerable for the cat to ingest it compared to the filtered kind which tastes horrible. Remember only to use the organic apple cider vinegar as necessary. Too much too often could lead to an ulcer. From my experience a couple tablespoons a week has not hurt my cat. If it is a real emergency you could go beyond that just do not let it come to a habit of more than that each week. Keep in mind; you will likely have reoccurring bouts with this for a while. That is why I recommend some other preventative measures as you read on below: Keep in mind that it is important to ensure cats, when feeling normal, get enough water to keep their system flowing. Ensure they eat wet cat food over dry for the moisture content, Consider temporarily stopping the cat from eating dry food or even permanently if necessary. Too much dry food leads to blockages with lack of hydration compared to canned cat food. Try putting some added bit of water in their wet food. Avoid salty meats if they are having this problem. Salty meats or salty canned food meats like tuna will stop up your cat for sure! If you use clay litter make sure you use the unscented. Scented can irritate their pee track with synthetic chemicals leading to inflammation and UTI blockages. Never use clumping litter for cats; it can lead to blockages because cats can ingest it much easier. That can cause ingestion of sludge and bacteria leading to inflammation and UTI’s. Clumping litter is known to be extremely dangerous for kittens and not good for cats in general. Buy only fragrant free non-clumping litter, and then add one heaping tablespoon of baking soda mixed in per 10 pounds of cat litter that you use. It will naturally neutralize the smell; Just do not go beyond that because baking soda is really high in salt which is dangerous for cats if they ingest it more than a tiny amount by licking their paws each time using the litter box. I have used it for my cat and it works well, he actually prefers this litter combination. Baking soda is known to help aid and help get rid of UTI’s. Never give it to your cat other than in the litter! Additionally, use feline pine litter and add it to your litter with several handfuls to add a nice fragrant smell. A little goes a long way to just supplement the litter. Also, consider buying "cranimals" from amazon. It is a cranberry extract that helps the kidneys and gets rid of UTI problems. Put 1/4 teaspoon in two small cans of wet cat food or equivalent to that with one big can. You can also wash out an old salt and peppershaker to sprinkle a decent amount in their food. Any amount more than that I have noticed they will not eat it. Putting cranimals cranberry powder in their food will help keep their pee acidic to break down crystals. Additionally, "Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth" helps assist in UTI treatment sold on Amazon. It is a "diuretic" thus helps people and animals urinate 30% more to empty the bladder to keep crystals from forming. Completely safe for cats with no limitations of consumption and has no salt in it. Cats tolerate it because it has almost no taste. Just be careful not to breathe it in by getting it dusted up in the air because it is dangerous to breathe it in. Make sure to only use "Food Grade."Use at least about 1/4 teaspoon per small can wet cat food. Lastly, I have learned of a brand called "tinkle tonic" from chewy or amazon that some claim helped their cats. Finally, consider your cat’s stress level. Stress could be another factor that can lead to inflammation of the bladder area. Try to ensure he has enough to do to keep happy.

Mine is too. Got the blood gone bit I was putting in food n got some drops from the let store. All I got si teg apple cider vinegar. He's not eating to eat barley he can smell.it. he picky. Tried it in everything finally last night I git 1.0 ml mixed with broth I made from meat scraps. Just now I got him with 2.0 ml pf mixed water n acv. Put on his toes n a good shot a straight. He didn't like that. Ended up saliva. Wiped him n he's OK. Git him with a bit more n out in his food. But again he noticed it. I don't see anything maybe. Adria a pee again. Yesterday he at least had a few drops. I belive he got. Abot of the drops from the pet store n it has ginger n dandelion in it. Might a made him get saliva cux that stiff stinks worsethwn the acv. This cat is a fighter 10 urs old but been thru hell. I will get him with it again thsi afternoon. I've took two dsys off I don't wnat him dying alone of it goes that far. He tried ro ouch so hard I tell him to stop. This is how they can burst their blather n we are screwed if that happens. End all right there. So I've prayed pal night he will just pee God let him pee I just pit my dog down 6 days ir do ago. N she's editing at vet for me to pick her ashes up. So that cost me 700 I don't ahve that kind of money even of I make good money a day n I am nkt going thru that again after the dog 6 days later ya think they'd give me a break ans help me out. I can get a while of a cashier for cats kts an oval one and try to flush it. But that's of he Wil.let me. I can massage him liek another video says bit not for lomg an sindont feel anything there maybe a little grainy but that didn't help at all. The things we do for our animals right. I just pray its in God's hands now ans all I can do is keep trying with this acv I will try to find an organic one today in town if they ahve any but I ahte to elwve him alone very lying an sits a good half hr n back.

I was definitely skeptical that this would work but last night around midnight my cat started showing signs of not being able to pee, and sure enough his bladder felt hard as a rock. This happened once before and it resulted in an $800 vet bill and that wasn’t even at a 24 hour emergency clinic. Since I knew the bill would be crazy if I took him to the vet in the middle of the night, and he didn’t seem to be in pain, I decided to try giving him some apple cider vinegar with a syringe (about 5ml) and that I would take him to the vet in the morning if it didn’t work. Well, I woke up early and checked on him this morning and it worked! He peed all over the place, but fortunately he contained it all to my bathroom. Thanks so much for this advice. I will still take him to the vet, but at least it’s no longer an emergency and most importantly he’s not uncomfortable anymore. Disclaimer: I do think that we caught it relatively early this time, and if your cat is howling in pain I would still take them straight to the vet. But if you notice that they’re having trouble peeing and they don’t seem to react negatively to you picking them up or prodding around their bladder, definitely give ACV a shot! It saved my little dude a lot of pain and me a lot money and heartache. Thanks again for making this video!

Daily update on oreo’s condition. Day 1: Saw her trying to pee in the bathroom but nothing coming out, immediately i started my research on whatever it is, found out it’s UTI, searched for home treatment if possible because vets in our city suck, found this video, started giving her acv in small amounts 2-3ml, she was still straining, no progress. Day 2: Gave her acv again in small amount 2-3ml , one time in a day, because i was scared smthg would happen if i gave her alot of it. Day 3: Still no progress so i gave her 5ml 2-3 times in a day, noticed small amount of urine instead of 2-3 drops that were mostly bloody. Day 4: Gave her acv 5ml 3 times with syringe and mixed some in her jelly food, noticed that every-time i gave her the acv her urine was coming out more and more each time with less frequent visits to the bathroom and less licking of her private areas. She is very active, playful and eating alright.

Tried the acv, works wonders you just have to be consistent to observe if your pet has this symptoms in early stages. I noticed she has already peeing small amounts of urine mixed with blood and just peeing everywhere, she was also straining. Poor baby. So I did was to just mix coconut oil and acv full strength undiluted with ratio of 1:1 and admninster it to her via syringe at least 5 ml I administer it 3 times a day for 3 consecutive days followed with water because she isnt a fan of water .On the second day, the blood was gone and the third day she has more urine coming out and no blood at all and less frequent trips. I hope this will help!

Thank you Farm Dad! You’re truly a lifesaver. I have had my baby boy Loki (marble bengal) on the verge the D word for going on 5 weeks. We paid crazy emergency vet bills with money we didn’t have, we were told he had a blood clot in his penis, there was no blockage or crystals but they just cleared out the clot with a catheter and doped him up and sent him home. With pain pills and muscle relaxer, for two weeks. He wasn’t really responsive and worried he wouldn’t make. I called every vet in the valley to find a retired vet that asked to him home to help me. He finally put Loki on antibiotics and anti inflammatory pills. I have had to give him this for 3 weeks which helped but he can’t live on antibiotics so now that I’ve stopped him he went down hill quick. Two days…came home tonight and he was swollen and not peeing again. So I tried your method and it’s starting to work! Thank god, thank you! It’s really hard to get it in him, he fights so hard. The first round I think I got more down, second round got maybe 2-3 ml out of 5ml. He is pretty hip to my methods of giving it to him with syringe. How can I mask it without him smelling the vinegar? Bengals are sooooo picky! Again! Thank you so much!

My bill was up to $925 at the vet to unblock him, and they were kind enough to take $600 bc I didn’t have the full amount. They unblocked him. but he still seems to only trickle pee out. I just administered apple cider vinegar about 30 mins ago. Now I will do it again. Tomorrow I will do the same. He is eating only gravy filled wet food now.

Here is some additional information for you that has helped me: Rub Organic raw unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar with "the Mother" on their fur (cat's sides) or the top of their paws. They will lick it off. Use at least two tablespoons in a day or if necessary a few days in an emergency for cats. For very young cats reduce that amount to one tablespoon. For kittens use only a teaspoon. Rub the organic apple cider vinegar on each side of their fur or the top of their paws until you see them have relief. Remember to shake the bottle first. If you have a wild cat that doesn’t take orders, then douse him with a good bit in a small glass. A lot will bead of his fur. Also, they will not be able to lick off the entirety of it all at once. Organic apple cider vinegar will start to go into immediate action for the cat to get relief from the blockage. It saved my cat that was pissing blood and then could not pee while squatting all the time. Also, it helps get rid of UTI bacteria; Walmart sells it. Ideally, it is best to use organic apple cider vinegar because it tastes rather good and is much more tolerable for the cat to ingest it compared to the filtered kind which tastes horrible. Remember only to use the organic apple cider vinegar as necessary. Too much too often could lead to an ulcer. From my experience a couple tablespoons a week has not hurt my cat. If it is a real emergency you could go beyond that just do not let it come to a habit of more than that each week. Keep in mind; you will likely have reoccurring bouts with this for a while. That is why I recommend some other preventative measures as you read on below: Keep in mind that it is important to ensure cats, when feeling normal, get enough water to keep their system flowing. Ensure they eat wet cat food over dry for the moisture content, Consider temporarily stopping the cat from eating dry food or even permanently if necessary. Too much dry food leads to blockages with lack of hydration compared to canned cat food. Try putting some added bit of water in their wet food. Avoid salty meats if they are having this problem. Salty meats or salty canned food meats like tuna will stop up your cat for sure! If you use clay litter make sure you use the unscented. Scented can irritate their pee track with synthetic chemicals leading to inflammation and UTI blockages. Never use clumping litter for cats; it can lead to blockages because cats can ingest it much easier. That can cause ingestion of sludge and bacteria leading to inflammation and UTI’s. Clumping litter is known to be extremely dangerous for kittens and not good for cats in general. Buy only fragrant free non-clumping litter, and then add one heaping tablespoon of baking soda mixed in per 10 pounds of cat litter that you use. It will naturally neutralize the smell; Just do not go beyond that because baking soda is really high in salt which is dangerous for cats if they ingest it more than a tiny amount by licking their paws each time using the litter box. I have used it for my cat and it works well, he actually prefers this litter combination. Baking soda is known to help aid and help get rid of UTI’s. Never give it to your cat other than in the litter! Additionally, use feline pine litter and add it to your litter with several handfuls to add a nice fragrant smell. A little goes a long way to just supplement the litter. Also, consider buying "cranimals" from amazon. It is a cranberry extract that helps the kidneys and gets rid of UTI problems. Put 1/4 teaspoon in two small cans of wet cat food or equivalent to that with one big can. You can also wash out an old salt and peppershaker to sprinkle a decent amount in their food. Any amount more than that I have noticed they will not eat it. Putting cranimals cranberry powder in their food will help keep their pee acidic to break down crystals. Additionally, "Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth" helps assist in UTI treatment sold on Amazon. It is a "diuretic" thus helps people and animals urinate 30% more to empty the bladder to keep crystals from forming. Completely safe for cats with no limitations of consumption and has no salt in it. Cats tolerate it because it has almost no taste. Just be careful not to breathe it in by getting it dusted up in the air because it is dangerous to breathe it in. Make sure to only use "Food Grade."Use at least about 1/4 teaspoon per small can wet cat food. Lastly, I have learned of a brand called "tinkle tonic" from chewy or amazon that some claim helped their cats. Finally, consider your cat’s stress level. Stress could be another factor that can lead to inflammation of the bladder area. Try to ensure he has enough to do to keep happy.

​@@infini_apex What I mean by "dousing" is that you place the Organic Apple Cider Vinegar in a small glass and you chuck it on their fur. Ideally try aiming for your cat's side fur area where they can easy lick it up while grooming the liquid off themselves.Cat's are obviously tidy animals, and they do not like to have wetness or any foreign substances on their body. They will lap it up and groom themselves after you " douse" them or chuck the liquid on them. Pouring it on them when they are resting is just as effective. I would actually recommend pouring on them before chucking it on them. Cats are quite smart though; my cat is wily. He got more wise to my ways when I did this to him over a longer period of time. So, sometimes I had to chuck it on him in an emergency rather than pouring it on him or rubbing it into his fur while trying to hold him down. I would normally recommend just rubbing two tablespoons on the sides of their body fur area by cupping a tablespoon at a time in your hand. Though, since your cat is more intolerant or wild like mine, then just douse them or pour it on them which is ultimately just as effective. It is important to note that at least half the amount in the glass will bead off their fur and not stick since you would be chucking it from a glass on them rather than hand rubbing it into their fur. That is why from my experience I say to place a good bit in the glass, meaning like at least double the amount of the two tablespoons of which I normally recommend. So, I would use five tablespoons in this instance. Now, obviously if you were able to rub it in better then you could reduce that amount back to just two tablespoons. Even pouring it on them, I would still go with four tablespoons because half of the amount usually beads of their fur unless you were to rub it in their fur a little at a time. Also, do not worry about using the excess amount in these types of emergency situations. Half will bead off them as I have stated; furthermore, they will not be able to lick it entirely off their fur in one time anyhow. So, it is actually quite nice that they get to lap up a good bit the first day, yet still are able to get smaller increments of the organic ACV the following few days. The overall goal is to use preventative measures besides just using organic apple cider vinegar in emergency situations. That is why I went into further detail about what has helped my cat not need the Organic Apple Cider nearly as often or if at all. There are a lot of factors that cause our cats to have this problem, but addressing them can greatly lessen the chance of a repeat occurrence or an emergency situation. Lastly, please remember that I have always used organic apple cider vinegar. If you ever tasted the difference as I have, then you would know how terrible the regular filtered kind tastes compared to the organic. The regular filtered kind is a lot more harsh to swallow down. The regular kind has been known to make cats froth at the mouth. So, I would always go with the organic unless you were absolutely desperate to use the other regular filtered kind.

Thank you for this video. I have a male cat who was struggling to pass urine, just a few drops, he was crying while straining to pee, and was doing this all around the house (outside of his litterbox). He has a history of blockages from crystals, and I could see that he was showing signs of being on his way to a full on blockage, which we know, is an emergency. The emergency clinic is a 2 hour drive (I live out in the country) and the last time I went there, I paid around $1,500 to unblock him. So, I had some ACV on hand, and I tried it. I administered it 3 times during the night, and again in the morning. Pure and undiluted. He didn't like it, but guess what? The pee started flowing... he's urinated twice now, in his litterbox, large amounts. Crisis diverted! It's like a miracle. Thank you!

My little black cat, Kat-boy had a complete blockage and was wailing when I picked him up last Thursday. I had noticed him straining to pee a couple of days before. We rushed him to the Vet, where they placed a urethral catheter in him to unblock and drain his bladder… and had 2 IVs on his arms-one for fluids and the other for-antibiotic I think. The bill was $1,400+ already and each additional overnight stay would be another $90. Well, with 15 other rescue cats at home, we couldn’t afford that and brought him home-seeing as the blockage was cleared. They told us he could “re-block”… but we took the chance and took him home. They supposedly gave him an antibiotic shot good for 2 weeks, while waiting for his urinalysis and urine culture to come back. In the meantime, he was prescribed Hills Diet UT Care dry food (which he will not eat-very expensive! $50 for an 8lb bag!) and their wet canned purée food, which he likes. When we brought him home, he was peeing like a siv… and I noticed it was frothy and very clear, no smell. The labs came back (after having to bring him in again, because they lost his first urine sample)… and they said 25-50 rod-shaped bacteria were present-most likely e.coli… and they need to put him on a stronger antibiotic because the shot wasn’t doing it’s job and now he has a UTI. I was just about to give the first dose-Zeniquin 25 mg-but it’s in pill form, so while I was dissolving it in a spoonful of warm water to mix in a chicken purée treat, I was researching Zeniquin on “Dr Google”. I came across some disturbing info: “may cause temporary or permanent blindness in CATS, so administer with caution”… ??? “May cause diarrhea, vomiting, lack of appetite, lethargy”… that’s disturbing-I tossed out the medicine. My friend, who also has a lot of cats (15), suggested for me to research home remedies for cats with UTI and drugs ending in “-quin”… This video is the first I saw that popped up when searching for “home remedy cat UTI”… I knew that raw-unfiltered vinegar had medicinal properties for us humans and I actually have a bottle of Bragg Organic, but when I read comments of the people on here whose cats were saved with this-I’m thinking, wow-that $1400+ Vet bill probably could have been better used for food, kitty litter, etc… if I had seen this video prior to going to the Vet, which is 45 mins away!! While waiting for the labs to come back (3-5 days), I asked the Vet if I could get an OTC supplement that would help with the UTI while waiting-I’m thinking, something with cranberry-like I was told to drink if ever I got a UTI. I found a powder, called Solid Gold Berry Balance at Petsmart-it “promotes optimal urinary tract health and function”… I’ve been giving 1/8 tsp twice a day as instructed-I mix it with the chicken purée treat he loves so much and he has been peeing good-not frothy-not taking over 3 mins to finish peeing… so in my mind, this is working for him! In retrospect, I was wondering why the Vet didn’t want to give him a urinalysis to see if the UTI cleared (from being on this cranberry powder supplement for 5 days through Christmas)… before prescribing this harsh Zeniquin-that he’s supposed to take for 14 days!! I’m not going to give it to him-they had me at “blindness”… and even “possible seizures”… I’m going to purchase an OTC alkalinity test kit to check Kat-boy’s urine’s pH… Any additional advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for posting this video. I will definitely try it if ever Kat-boy gets blocked again… Blessings to you and your fur babies, Farm Dad!

Rub Organic raw unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar with "the Mother" on their fur (cat's sides) or the top of their paws. They will lick it off. Use at least two tablespoons in a day or if necessary a few days in an emergency for cats. For very young cats reduce that amount to one tablespoon. For kittens use only a teaspoon. Rub the organic apple cider vinegar on each side of their fur or the top of their paws until you see them have relief. Remember to shake the bottle first. If you have a wild cat that doesn’t take orders, then douse him with a good bit in a small glass. A lot will bead of his fur. Also, they will not be able to lick off the entirety of it all at once. Organic apple cider vinegar will start to go into immediate action for the cat to get relief from the blockage. It saved my cat that was pissing blood and then could not pee while squatting all the time. Also, it helps get rid of UTI bacteria; Walmart sells it. Ideally, it is best to use organic apple cider vinegar because it tastes rather good and is much more tolerable for the cat to ingest it compared to the filtered kind which tastes horrible. Remember only to use the organic apple cider vinegar as necessary. Too much too often could lead to an ulcer. From my experience a couple tablespoons a week has not hurt my cat. If it is a real emergency you could go beyond that just do not let it come to a habit of more than that each week. Keep in mind; you will likely have reoccurring bouts with this for a while. That is why I recommend some other preventative measures as you read on below: Keep in mind that it is important to ensure cats, when feeling normal, get enough water to keep their system flowing. Ensure they eat wet cat food over dry for the moisture content, Consider temporarily stopping the cat from eating dry food or even permanently if necessary. Too much dry food leads to blockages with lack of hydration compared to canned cat food. Try putting some added bit of water in their wet food. Avoid salty meats if they are having this problem. Salty meats or salty canned food meats like tuna will stop up your cat for sure! If you use clay litter make sure you use the unscented. Scented can irritate their pee track with synthetic chemicals leading to inflammation and UTI blockages. Never use clumping litter for cats; it can lead to blockages because cats can ingest it much easier. That can cause ingestion of sludge and bacteria leading to inflammation and UTI’s. Clumping litter is known to be extremely dangerous for kittens and not good for cats in general. Buy only fragrant free non-clumping litter, and then add one heaping tablespoon of baking soda mixed in per 10 pounds of cat litter that you use. It will naturally neutralize the smell; Just do not go beyond that because baking soda is really high in salt which is dangerous for cats if they ingest it more than a tiny amount by licking their paws each time using the litter box. I have used it for my cat and it works well, he actually prefers this litter combination. Baking soda is known to help aid and help get rid of UTI’s. Never give it to your cat other than in the litter! Additionally, use feline pine litter and add it to your litter with several handfuls to add a nice fragrant smell. A little goes a long way to just supplement the litter. Also, consider buying "cranimals" from amazon. It is a cranberry extract that helps the kidneys and gets rid of UTI problems. Put 1/4 teaspoon in two small cans of wet cat food or equivalent to that with one big can. You can also wash out an old salt and peppershaker to sprinkle a decent amount in their food. Any amount more than that I have noticed they will not eat it. Putting cranimals cranberry powder in their food will help keep their pee acidic to break down crystals. Additionally, "Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth" helps assist in UTI treatment sold on Amazon. It is a "diuretic" thus helps people and animals urinate 30% more to empty the bladder to keep crystals from forming. Completely safe for cats with no limitations of consumption and has no salt in it. Cats tolerate it because it has almost no taste. Just be careful not to breathe it in by getting it dusted up in the air because it is dangerous to breathe it in. Make sure to only use "Food Grade."Use at least about 1/4 teaspoon per small can wet cat food. Lastly, I have learned of a brand called "tinkle tonic" from chewy or amazon that some claim helped their cats. Finally, consider your cat’s stress level. Stress could be another factor that can lead to inflammation of the bladder area. Try to ensure he has enough to do to keep happy.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video! My cat couldn't even pee one single drop this morning so I rushed him to the vet. They did some blood work, urine sample, and x-ray on him (total added up to about $900 because California is expensive). Fortunately, he wasn't in any life threatening situation, but the tip of his private part was still blocked. The animal hospital wanted to give him catheter and overnight stays at the hospital, which would have added another $1700. Thankfully I came across your video when I was waiting for his results, so I told the hospital I would take him home first. I immediately gave him about 5ml of organic apple cider vinegar when I got home (I put it on his paws, back, and tails so he licked them off naturally), and 5 minutes later he peed!!! He then peed again a bit more afterwards. He even started to drink water from his little fountain. I cannot thank you enough for creating this video to share this information. My husband said he wished I would have given the apple cider vinegar to my cat without spending the $900 on blood work and examination, but I know it's better to be on the safe side and run some tests to make sure my cat was not in any sort of extreme condition (also I didn't find your video until I already took him to the vet). We avoided spending another $1700 thanks to you! God bless you for sharing this information 🙏

Please, as a preventative, put your cat on a high quality, high meat, wet diet. Yes the ACV raises the pH and dissolved the crystal blockage but the problem is mostly crappy grain/starch based dry diets. Cats are carnivores and need meat diets.

Dude! This saved my cats life. I am absolutely blown away! Our cat almost died, and the vet wanted over 3K$ which is insanity. The vet gave him less than a day to live, pushing us to pay for him to be put down if we couldn’t pay the 3-4K, but I found this video after frantically scouring the net for other options. He hates the stuff, but after a few days of giving him small doses (2ml 2x a day for 2 days so far) he is peeing and starting to play. THANK YOU!!!

@@FarmDad yup, I did 50/50… I didn’t use organic braggs, just plain clear stuff diluted. Shoulda mentioned that part.. Just to report back, our cat is 100% back to normal now… we are feeding him more wet food and cranberry powder treats.

Hi Farm Dad. Awesome Video. Thank you so much for this. Other than the ACV - how was the homeopet? Hopefully you can share some experiences using the homeopet. Thanks.

I used it, as well as acv, and my cat made a full recovery. I cannot say how effective it was since it was used in conjunction with the other stuff, but it certainly didn't hurt.

I had to come on here and just say thank you a millions times! My cat has had a history of UTI due to bladder stones. Vet told me to keep an eye out on him because he may eventually block requiring ER visit. Last night, my cat was not urinating at all to the point he started to grunt and growl at me because he was in pain. I called around a few ER vets and asked for a quote about how much it would be to get him checked and everyone was ranging around the thousands which I cannot afford!! Thankfully, I found this video and gave my cat a shot of straight ACV, 4 ml, and he reacted the same way as the cat in the video. I was extremely skeptical and was so sad I would possibly wake up and no longer have my cat around. This morning, he actually woke me up to feed him and I went to check his litter box, which I also place on top of a pee pad, and saw he had urinated so much! And I also saw something dark and round, wasn’t poop, so I’m assuming he passed whatever may have blocked him! My cat is back to his normal self and he seems sooo relieved!! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!!

My beautiful 2 year old boy, T'Challa (yes I am a big "Black Panther" fan) started peeing everywhere but his litter box a few days ago. I didn't realize that was a red flag. Today, he stopped producing urine all together. My heart would break watching him as he would squat for several minutes trying to pee with no urine at all coming out. I called every ER in my area, but unless I had a credit card, cash for the full bill or "pet credit" no one would see him. My husband found this video and we gave T'Challa 5ml of undiluted ACV. Within an hour and a half I noticed a quarter-sized puddle of pink pee and a long white "plug" along with it. Within 3 hours T'Challa was peeing more. We will be giving him another dose but will dilute the ACV with water this time. THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY FUR BABY'S LIFE.
