Protein in the urine and high urine density

Good day.  please tell me how to stop the inflammatory process in my cat's body (in the urinary tract, if I'm not mistaken) if a protein is found in his urine tests (the indicator exceeds the norm).  And also please tell me how at home it is possible to reduce the density of my pet's urine?

Hello!  There are various antiinflammatories used in urinary problems but these have to be prescribed for purpose by a vet, for very good reasons  ( for example, paracetamol is poisonous to cats, as are many other everyday drugs and other drugs should not be given when there is an undiagnosed cause of protein in the urine).  Reducing urine concentration in a cat can be achieved by encouraging them to drink more; by wetting or watering down their food, by making drinking fun (some cats prefer to drink from a fountain or dripping tap and it's always worth trying different material bowls).  Cats can also be territorial about where they drink, especially if there are other animals and people in the house.   We would recommend there always being a choice of water bowls and drinking locations available in each cats' own territory.   However......

It is wrong to assume that protein in the urine is caused by cystitis without considering kidney problems.  Protein in the urine can be an early sign of kidney disease and is one of the signs in the IRIS kidney scheme.  There are other problems that can make cats' urine look yellow, so concentration should be measured in the form of urine specific gravity in order to assess the kidneys using the IRIS scheme.  If present, the earlier kidney disease is picked up, the more that can be done to help. Therefore, although it is a great move to encourage all cats to drink, we would also advise dropping a fresh sample of your cats urine off with a vet or arranging a consultation and walking in with a sample in your hand, in a clean, dry container.

The inflammatory process, in general, is a good thing and may have saved your cats life a few times already.  The concern is that when there is proein in a cats urine, they may have cystitis or normal blood protein may be escaping through the kidneys; seeing your vet and encouraging drinking would be an excellent starting point.

Thank you for your reply. Please tell me, can I send you urine tests of my cat? Thank you.

..by the way, I forgot to tell you that earlier my cat was already diagnosed with cystitis, as well as urolithiasis, and 2 years ago she already had triaditis.

Hello!  I'm chuffed that you asked, but I'm afraid that I don't take referrals on this site at the present time so you may be best to speak to your vet, although if you don't wish to, it may help to check with the rest of the Vet Help Direct site, which may be able to offer some suggestions.  Our blog and also Sarah Caney's site Vet Professionals may also be able to offer you some owner-centred help and resources.  Cystitis is very often linked to stress now and this may be an important factor to look at, even in cats who don't appear stressed.  Best of luck!
