Struvite crystals in cats are one of the most common bladder stones to be found in their urine. It can cause severe discomfort that is beyond imagination. It breaks our hearts to learn that Kang had been suffering from crystal flare-ups every cold month. But guess what? It never stopped this green-eyed beauty from living his best life. Keep reading to see how brave this little boy is!
Get To Know Kang
On a winter day many years ago, young Kang unexpectedly showed signs of blockage which led him to an emergency clinic, lots of ph testing, ultrasound, urinalysis, and a diet for struvites. It must have been so dreadful for him, but since this little boy tends to put up a tough face, his furparents were always on their feet to watch out for him. A year went by with no problem until the next winter arrived, he started to show signs of obstruction again. Since then, his furparents have been working with the vets to help prepare Kang for the cold days.
What Are Struvites Crystals in Cats?
The cause can be stress, an unbalanced diet, lack of exercise, or dehydration.
Struvite stones are made up of ammonium, phosphate, and magnesium, which can be normally present in the urine without causing any problems. However, these substances may start to form and harden over time. The cause can be stress, an unbalanced diet, lack of exercise, or dehydration. Depending on how severe the crystals are, they may be dissolved with a vet-recommended diet.
Common Symptoms of Struvite Crystals in Cats
Some common signs of cats with urinary stones are:
- loss of appetite
- straining when urinating
- urinating more often
- urinating outside the litter box
- increased frequency in licking their genitals
- lethargy
When it comes to helping prevent struvite crystals from forming while maintaining a little one’s urinary tract health, diets with small and frequent meals and water consumption can play an important role. In addition, natural remedies for struvite crystals in cats can be beneficial as proactive care.
Natural Support for Struvite Crystals in Cats
To help support Kang, his furparents have been giving him these NHV supplements:
- Tripsy can aid with the flushing of stones, help support kidney function, and encourage urinary tract health. One of the herbs in Tripsy, echinacea purpurea, can help soothe irritated tissues. It also contains Oregon grape extract to help provide antibacterial and immuno-stimulating properties. This study found that Tripsy can be beneficial in lowering the risk of struvite crystals.
- Tumeric is a super herb that has been used for thousands of years in herbal medicine. Its curcumin compound can help ease discomfort and help improve the kidney and liver function. Turmeric also has other benefits like anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antibacterial, and discomfort-reducing properties.
About a year after having Kang on our regimen, we were over the moon to receive a very thorough update from Kang’s furmily!
Kang loves Turmeric and Tripsy. He will lick them straight from the dropper if I don’t get them into his food fast enough to please him. Within a week of taking Turmeric and Tripsy, he was completely back to normal. All of Kang’s “problems” occurred in the winter months when a 15-degree drop in temperature was accompanied by barometric pressure falling below 30 or there were three days of steady temp (40 or below) with barometric pressures below 30.
Although correlation does not imply causation, we’ve had a few “cold snaps” this winter. The latest was last week when our balmy 73 degrees New Year’s eve turned into a snowy 36 degrees New Year’s Day. The 37-degree drop in temp and the three-day falling barometric pressure didn’t seem to affect Kang at all, so I have great hope.”
We are so proud of how far this sweet boy has come! Vet visits for diagnosis and treatment can be so stressful for both pets and furparents, but Kang has been so strong and brave through all of this.

Benefits of Using Turmeric for Cats Daily
What goes into your cat’s body every day will make a difference when it is time to fight a disease, or when they already have one. That’s why NHV supplements are designed to be given each and every day for things like:
Joint Support: can be used for supporting cats with arthritis due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
Cancer Support: can cats with cancer use turmeric? Yes! Turmeric can be used as a companion supplement to veterinary care for cats who have cancer. In fact it can help scavenge for free radicals and is rich in antioxidants.
Discomfort Support: may help to ease discomfort related to inflammation, like the kind caused by arthritis, cancer, or other inflammatory conditions.
It can even be used proactively before your furry friend becomes sick in the first place by giving them a regular boost of natural goodness!
Healing Properties of Turmeric
Turmeric itself is a root with vibrant orange-golden flesh. It’s golden in the world of herbalism for pets with its many healing properties.
- Can help arthritic conditions due to its anti-inflammatory properties and COX2 inhibitors
- Can support autoimmune disorders by potentially improving the signaling pathways of immune cells
- Can benefit cats with cancer due to its antioxidant content
- Can support liver disorders through detoxification
- Can support heart conditions through improved circulation
- Can help to lower bad cholesterol (LDL) which cats are prone to
- Can help reduce the risk of blood clotting
One of turmeric’s most well-recognized healing properties is its antioxidant content. Antioxidants can help scavenge for free radicals, which are unstable molecules that cause damage to the cells. The free radical scavenging properties of turmeric can support the body in processing and removing these molecules, minimizing the damage they can do.

Do kidney stones require prescribed medication as well?
There are no pharmaceutical medications to treat kidney stones in pets.
Do kidney stones cause my pet discomfort?
Kidney stones in pets are not the same as in humans. They don't typically cause discomfort and they are often an incidental finding during x-rays. If the kidney stones are blocking the flow of urine from the kidney, this can cause kidney damage.
Are kidney stones common or are they an indication of poor health in my pet?
Kidney stones in pets are not very common. As pets age, there may be some mineralization in the kidneys. This is more common in cats. A build up of minerals can cause this.
What causes kidney stones?
Kidney stones are caused by a buildup of minerals in the kidneys.

My cat is about 15 years old and is going thru a period of not eating. Took her to vet and had tests ran. Was told she has a condition I cant recall the name but compared it HIV in humans. She was x-rayed and it showed her having some kidney stones as well. What would you recommend to help her?
Hi Tracy,
We’re sorry to hear that your kitty is going through this. We know it can be really tough when our little ones aren’t feeling well but we want you to know that we’ll always be here to support you whenever you need us.
We have a few suggestions that we think could help.
First, we suggest Felimm. This is our main support for viral infections, like Feline Herpes Virus. The powerful herbs in this blend can help to encourage detoxification of the lymphatic system, strengthen a weakened immune system, combats upper respiratory issues, and can help to stimulate appetite and balance energy levels.
