2)
Monitor the specific gravity of your cat's urine to be sure it is consuming enough liquid to keep its urine quite dilute.
Not exact matches
A mild - to - moderate elevation in your pet's creatinine results mean the most when the same pet's creatinine level has been
monitored periodically over several years, or when other tests such as urine microalbuminuria or a drop in your dog's early morning urine
specific gravity (= a more dilute urine) confirm that a kidney issue may be brewing.
To know if your home made diet is working, you will need to
monitor your pet's urine pH and
specific gravity.
We can
monitor whether or not an owner is doing this by looking at the pH of the urine along with the
specific gravity of the urine.
If you can,
monitor your pet's urine pH and
specific gravity.
1)
Monitor the amount and characteristics of your cat's urine for
specific gravity with a refractometer and for acidity and the presence of unseen blood with paper dipsticks similar to the ones in the photograph.
One of my recommendations is that every owner of a pet with this problem have the means at hand to
monitor it's urine
specific gravity (the measure of the concentration or the urine) and urine pH (acidity) at home on a daily basis.
Periodic blood testing for BUN and creatinine as well as checking urine
specific gravity are important for
monitoring how your cat's kidneys are functioning.
You still need to
monitor your pet's urine
specific gravity and other parameters of its urinary tract health.
Urine pH and
specific gravity tests are critical when it comes to the
monitoring of your cat's health.
Periodic blood testing for BUN and creatinine, and concurrently checking a urine
specific gravity are important for
monitoring how a cat's kidneys are functioning.
Monitoring urine protein levels, urine / creatinine ratio and
specific gravity of the urine can all help in evaluating how the kidneys are doing.
