It is extremely dangerous to treat a cat's UTI with tetracycline or any other medication without the guidance of a veterinarian.
Here's why:
* Dosage and type of medication: The correct dosage and type of medication for a cat UTI depend on the specific bacteria causing the infection and the cat's individual needs. A veterinarian will perform tests to determine the right treatment.
* Potential side effects: Tetracycline, like many antibiotics, can have side effects in cats, including liver damage, digestive issues, and even death.
* Misdiagnosis: A UTI could be a symptom of a more serious underlying condition. A veterinarian can diagnose the root cause and provide appropriate treatment.
Always consult with a licensed veterinarian about your cat's health concerns and treatment options. They are the only ones who can accurately diagnose and treat your cat's UTI.
