When Titi reached the age of 10, I had to quickly learn how to help him empty his bladder.
Due to arthritis and musculoskeletal problems, he struggled to position himself properly to empty his bladder.
If he delays emptying his bladder, it could result in sediment accumulation, causing sludge to form in the bladder and making it harder for him to urinate.
To prevent the formation of sludge in the bladder, it is necessary to ensure that the diet is low in calcium and rich in fiber and water.
This involves primarily incorporating wet romaine lettuce into the diet, as well as cilantro which is low in calcium but abundant in water, along with celery and fennel leaves. Increasing water intake is crucial for preventing sludge buildup and facilitating bladder emptying. Additionally, including foods like topinambour (low in sugar, high in fiber and water) and celery root can be beneficial.
However, I had to acquire the skill of expressing the bladder, but luckily I encountered a highly patient veterinarian who demonstrated her gentle method to me.
