I think my barn cat, Frank, might have a urinary tract or bladder infection. His behavior has been different lately, etc (been through this before with an indoor cat, so I know the drill).
I just gave him the homemade cat chow with extra broth so he had plenty to drink then and there are water sources all over the place outside. I'd really like not to have to take him to the vet at this point as I have my own medical $$$$ going out the door now.
Are there any home remedies I could try? Or even something that I can pick up at the farm and ranch store? It'd be cheaper than $100 to walk into the vet with him.
Frank is less than 2 years old, not neutered...I'm only willing to bleed so much while trying to stuff a cat in the carrier.
