Hello there,
I'm sorry to hear about your kitty’s recurring hematuria; it can be quite concerning to see blood in your cat's urine. Let's try to figure this out together.
Recurring hematuria, or blood in the urine, can be caused by several things in cats. Common causes include urinary tract infections (UTIs), bladder stones, or a condition known as feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC), which is stress-related. Less frequently, it could be due to more serious issues like urinary tract tumors or kidney disease.
At home, you can help your cat by encouraging them to drink more water. You might try offering fresh water in multiple locations or even a cat water fountain, which many cats enjoy. Feeding wet food can also help increase their fluid intake. Keeping the litter box clean and reducing stress with environmental enrichment, like interactive toys, might also be beneficial.
Watch for signs that could indicate a more serious problem, such as straining to urinate, crying out in pain, frequent trips to the litter box with little output, changes in appetite, or lethargy. If you see any of these, it’s important to seek veterinary attention promptly.
Why not book a video consult with one of our Dial A Vet professionals? We’d be more than happy to help you and your feline friend get to the bottom of this and find the most suitable solution.
Take care, and give your cat a gentle pat from me!

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
