1. Information on Dr.Vet's pH test beads for cat urine.

The pH level of a cat's urine in a normal state is 5-7 , with the ideal range being 6-6.5 . However, the pH of a cat's urine depends heavily on its diet, health status, and mental state.

And importantly, the pH level in urine reflects the cat's health status. Using pH test kits helps detect more diseases, allowing for timely treatment in the early stages, reducing treatment costs and preventing worse outcomes like death. Specifically:

Acidity of urine:

• If you feed your cat a lot of raw food, the pH of its urine will be highly acidic.
• If ammonium chloride, vitamin C, or certain other medications are being used, the acidity of the cat's urine will also be high.

Acidic urine can indicate urinary tract diseases, diabetes, leukemia, gout, fever, emphysema, metabolic acidosis, and respiratory acidosis.

Alkalinity in urine:

• When you feed your cat too much canned food, food high in grains or vegetables, or your cat doesn't drink enough water.
• When using medications containing sodium citrate, pyrimidine, carbonic acid, or certain Chinese herbal remedies.

Alkaline urine can indicate health conditions (frequent vomiting) or diseases such as urinary tract infections, cystitis, renal tubular acidosis, chronic glomerulonephritis, respiratory alkalosis, and metabolic alkalosis.

The urine pH test beads contain coloring agents that change color within 3 seconds, based on the pH level of the cat's urine. These beads also aid in monitoring the health status after treatment for urinary tract infections.

These urine pH test beads will help reduce stress for cats when they visit the vet and prevent potential urinary tract problems.

The color results of these pH test beads will vary, reflecting the condition of the cat's urine:

• Green: normal cat urine
• Orange-yellow color (pH<5): the urine is acidic.
• Dark blue (pH > 7): the urine is alkaline.

However, detailed color coding can offer appropriate suggestions for the cat's medical condition.
