Cystaid for Cats x 30 capsules

I purchased this product for my rescue cat over 12 months ago because she had repeated bouts of cystitis, including blood in urine. She would then wee in inappropriate places, especially my settee!! She also looked unwell - so unhappy. This lead to many vet visits making her doubly miserable. It made me miserable too - trying to get urine for a test (nightmare), getting her to the vets (stressful for both of us), the cost and the time (cleaning up, vet bills etc.) I was told that she had FIC - feline idiopathic cystitis or feline lower urinary tract disease. This is common in rescue cats (she was 5 when rescued and lived in a very stressful environment). Stress definitely triggered episodes, for example when we went on holiday leaving friends/family coming in to feed her, she always had an episode of cystitis. After trying multiple foods and encouraging drinking (lots more money spent) I decided to try Cystaid. It seemed like another risk of wasting money but I love my cat! I followed the in instructions on dosage to the letter and now she has one capsule a day in her morning feed. Since going on cystaid we have not been to the vets other than her yearly check! We’ve been away 2/3 times and no cystitis occurring. Amazing!! I want to add that she is fussy but we’ve had no issues with her rejecting food with cystaid sprinkled on and stirred in. A tip would be to roll the capsule firmly between finger and thumb several times before opening the capsule because the contents naturally become compacted and hard. I also think food quality helps and we finally settled with Katkin (an online company selling fresh and gently steamed meat. It comes frozen). But.. we were using KatKin long before Cystaid so I remain fully persuaded that this has been the real game changer.

I have two males cat both suffer urinary issues, back in the summer one was so poorly and the normal stuff i used didnt work, so he had to have an operation. (His had three in his life) The vet recommended keeping him on this or instead of the whole month just two weeks a month so it's in his system and monitor him to stop future problems. He doesn't notice it in his food at all. Still eats everything up. I do put water in his wet food too, and i add cranberry urinary biscuits to his dry food too. And fingers crossed he's fighting fit and no problems, my other boy started with alittle problem I gave this this 3 days later he was fine.. obviously that's for mine, but always take to a vet or pdsa if no improvement.

I give my cat 1 of these everyday, sprinkled on his meal,as before I started using this product he suffered terrible with feline cyst, now he's pain free and no more crying Wen he uses his litter box

I have bought so many cystitis products for my female cat this is the only one that worked. I bought 2 boxes so it was there if things recurred.

My cat gets interstitial feline cystitis caused by stress, mainly when the foxes out back have cubs and they start invading her little back garden territory. I have used vinegar in the past, a tiny bit of cider vinegar has seemed to help in her wet food but she has been worse, probably due to age and I knew it wasn't a bladder infection so thought I was give these a try as I refuse to spend loads on ineffective vet antibiotic treatments. These pills are supposed to help the bladder lining stay strong and prevent the leakage and discomfort caused by interstitial cystitis. As far as I can see they have given my cat relief. She will not take oral medication due to a bad experience with worm tablets when she was young, so the fact you can sprinkle and mix the pill contents into her wet food is a bonus and keeps the stress down for her too. So far she is showing fewer symptoms and seems more relaxed and doesn't need her 24/7 litter tray but it's hard to tell if this is because of the pills or just because she has recovered somewhat. I will add to this review the next time she has a flare up. Just a note, though the picture shows a bottle of pills, mine came in a blister pack in a thin cardboard box, which may be of interest if you are worried about them coming through a letterbox. UPDATE: I have run through a few elimination tests and think I have to say that Cystaid capsules are not helping my cat. I have been using Cystophan capsules instead and these seem to really make a difference. It is a slow process to find out what is giving my cat such discomfort, but these pills don't seem to be the answer so I have stopped buying them.

Work every time on my cat. Cheaper than at vets.

It's the first time our cat had experienced urinary issues and it was quite worrying as she would not stop going to her litter tray. I think it was triggered by the stress of a recent vet visit. It was a Sunday so I was only able to videocall the vet available through our insurance plan - after looking online I found this available for same day delivery. I gave her a double dose and she seemed improved within a few hours and back to herself the next day, couldn't believe it. We had been almost ready to take her to the animal hospital! It is super easy to disguise in a lick-e-lix type treat. Next time she goes to the vet, I'm going to make sure she takes some of this a couple of days before and after. Fab product.

My 20yr old cat suffers from UTIs now in her old age. This product has been a life saver for her and my sanity. No more vet bills and late night emergency visits. One capsule a day keeps everything working well and no more attacks. My cat has been on this for about 5 months now.
