Animal Essentials Tinkle Tonic for Dogs & Cats - Urinary Tract Support, Cat Urinary Supplement, Urinary & Bladder Support Herbal Formula - 1 fl oz

The reason I bought this is because I have a male cat who gets urinary blockage, and sees his vet almost monthly on an emergent basis, and has three other vet prescribed medications for the issue. I bought the tinkle tonic as a supplement to promote easier urination, but not as a replacement for any of his prescribed medication, and these decisions should always be discussed with your pet's veterinarian.Let's get the cons out of the way first. The taste is terrible apparently. My cat who loves treats, dry food, wet food, and tries to eat sticks, rubber bands, pennies, plastic and any other thing you try to hide from him, audibly GAGS when I give this to him. He's been on it about a week, 2x/day , and yesterday was the first day I noticed he didn't gag from it. The taste must be pretty bad. Since he gets it twice a day, I always hold it in front of him for a moment before I give it to him so he can smell it and kind of brace himself for the taste.On the flip side, using this twice a day for my cat, by day 4, I noticed the volume and frequency of his urination has easily doubled. He's also awake more often and playing a lot more, too. He also licks his nether region much less frequently. He hasn't been on it long enough to know if this truly reduces the number of emergency vet visits for him, but I'm hopeful.My cat is a large 15 pound male cat. I started him at the lowest stated dosage, which is .25ml. After a few days I was concerned that the smallest dose on the bottle was still a little too much since my cat's body already processes three other medications daily (even though my cat was in VERY good spirits and highly energetic, it's good to be cautious). So I stopped giving the tinkle tonic for 24 hours, and then giving it to him again I use .2ml instead, and he's still on track. From my experience, it's better to start with a lower dose and slowly increase to test tolerance but I forgot to do this at first. The bottle states dosage for cats and dogs, but no mention of weight so be aware of the dose and even talk to your vet if you have questions.All in all, I'm very glad I was able to find this tonic. It seems to make urination flow more smoothly for him. Very happy with the purchase and I'm already planning on ordering some more to stay stocked.

Use this for my cat who has crystals that caused hospitalization and now on Rx food. So far so good…it’s been over one year

I gave it to my cat once a day everyday for a few months and he still had a few accidents but it did seem to help somewhat

Have had to use this for a couple of our dogs off our veterinary’s recommendation. Seems to be helpful.

This Tonic is THE BEST! 😁👍It’s herbal, all natural and works Great!Jenny, our spayed senior Beagle/Britney Spaniel rescue, hasn’t had a pittle accident, since we started this “miraculous”Tinkle Tonic about 3 months ago!

Couldn't tell if this really worked

I have been using Tinkle Tonic for 4 years after my dog suffered from urun a ry crystals. Have not had a repeat event since. I am confident and my dog is comfortabe and happy!

I really enjoyed this product for my cat. She has a history of urinary issues we were prescribed the hills prescription food for urinary issues almost a year ago, and have fed it to her cents. A few months ago I noticed that my baby was squatting when in the litter box and going to the litter box, an excessive amount of times. My heart sank as I knew the familiar scenario of a urinary episode, whether that was crystals again, or a UTI. Either way I was directed to bring her into the emergency vet as I’m sure most of you are familiar with. At the emergency vet she was diagnosed with a UTI as a part of her cystitis. $1200 later, we had antibiotics to administer her and were sent home. I followed the antibiotic regimen, religiously as prescribed but even after finishing the antibiotics we saw no improvement to the issue whatsoever. It was as if nothing had changed. I knew that I cannot afford another vet visit, so I started looking into alternative solutions. This is the second or third one I’ve tried for this issue in this one as by far the best. This is my second time re-buying this product because is the only one where I notice that my cat stop straining and going to the litter box so often. I pair this with another all natural tincture from another brand, earth, animal, called aches, and discomfort. Putting this in her food daily and switching primarily to wet food is the only thing that has saved both the life of my precious cat and my wallet. I recommend this product to anyone that has been in a similar situation and doesn’t know where else to turn.
