BLADDER STONES IN PETS A problem mainly linked with quality of food can cause life threatening emergencies in pets.Severity depends upon size and location of stones. Signs may be urinating outside the litter box, straining, blood in urine or in some cases pet may not urinate if stones are at the neck of bladder or in the urethra. Urinalysis,blood work and X-Rays may be recommended to rule out the problems. Some pets can be managed by dietary changes but some may need emergency surgery to remove the stones from the bladder and to give relief from this problem.Dietary changes may be recommended thereafter depending upon the nature of stones.
