I had a hard time collecting urine directly.
Koyuki-chan and Kotora-chan
Since Koyuki was diagnosed with struvite crystals during a health check, we have changed his food to a medical diet and regularly test his urine at the hospital. We use a system toilet, but I heard that it is better to collect urine directly, so I used a ladle I bought at a 100 yen store to collect it. However, this method made Koyuki suspicious, and even when he was in the toilet position, he would stop using the ladle, or he would be wary and use the ladle at the edge, making it difficult to insert the ladle, so I had a hard time collecting urine. Then I found nyanpling's crowdfunding and immediately supported it! You can collect urine by quickly sliding the urine collection container under the cat's buttocks when he is in the toilet position. It is a large oval shape, so it is easier to collect urine than a ladle. It is also convenient that it comes with pH test paper for testing, so you can easily check it at home. The result was about pH 6.6. I will continue to have regular urine tests at the hospital, but I was relieved to see that there has been an improvement. I think there are many people who have trouble collecting cat urine, but I found nyanpling to be easy to use. (Quoted from Instagram, excerpts and edited)
