My cat, Itty, keeps hopping from litter box to litter box, (we have 2 boxes), we think it may be a UTI problem. We can't get her to the vet yet because she was a stray and not too socialized yet. Can anyone suggest any home remedies?
Whether or not she's social that doesn't matter. A vet is trained to deal with animals that don't want to be touched.
UTI's can turn into kidney infections which are really serious.
I suggest taking your cat to a vet and getting her some antibiotics. That'll be a lot cheaper than dealing with a kidney infection. Also as a human I know how painful UTI's can be, so for a cat is must really hurt.
Be a good owner and get her to the vet please.

***IF YOU DONT WANT TO READ THE LEGTHY STORY YOU CAN SKIM TO THE LAST SENTENCE*****
my cat little simba was such a lover boy..he had a terrible UTI and was rushed to the ER on monday..tuesday his kidneys started to fail and he had to be put to rest..he was only 1 years old..i dont know how god could do this to me after we tried and did everything to save his life. i had him cremated and asked him for a sign any sign he could possibly give me..well now i have a UTI i feel its his way of calling me to come to him..or to show me how he felt and let me know i did the right thing by not letting him suffer any longer..
sorry this is so long but can female adult humans die from this also?
You could if it was left untreated and it destroyed your kidneys.
But then, you could also die from a paper cut.

I had a terrible urinary tract infection that spread to my kidneys over the holidays. The doctor offices were closed and I ended up in the emergency room because i was having excruciating pain.
Anyway, I have been on antibiotics since Christmas night and this morning I started having urgency, frequencly and pain during voiding again??? I have been taking the meds as prescribed so why would they all of a sudden seem to stop working?
If I were you I would go back to the doctors office and address this issue. If your antibiotics aren't working then you might need something stronger. Or possibly you have something else related to the UTI. I would go to the doctor again if it were me.

My niece needs this information. Because she has a strong indication that she may be pregnant she does not want to take a prescription antibiotic.
This is what you do for UTI during pregnancy [I did it myself]:
Take 5,000 mg of Ascorbic Acid (vitamin C, the cheap kind. Other forms of vitamin C won't work for this, it has to be Ascorbic Acid) every day for 5 days.
Since the unborn child is developing rapidly and may not be able to tolerate a sudden deprivation of Vitamin C after 5 days of 5,000mg, it is vital to taper off. The 6th day, take 4,000 mg. The 7th day take 3,000 mg. The 8th day take 2,000 mg. The 9th day take 1,000 mg. The 10th day go back to your normal intake.
I did this and it worked fine, no problem. My doctor advised this and warned me of the necessity to taper off.
If you are not pregnant you don't have to taper off, just stop after 5 days.

My mom is a total bitch and won't take me to the doctors….can I die from a UTI? whats some home remedies ?
You can do massive damage to your kidneys if you don't get treated.
If your mother refuses to take you and it becomes unbearable, call 911…an ambulance will come and you'll be taken to a hospital. I've had UTI's so bad I was pissing blood and was screaming in agony…trust me — you don't EVER want to reach that point!

I read that somewhere. Is it true or a myth?
No and if it did, it wouldn't be an over the counter drug. Pharmaceutical sales is a multi billion dollar business!! Alka Seltzer is not a contender against the heavy weight antibiotics like Bactrum and Zithromax (just a few used to treat UTI). Seek the help of a physician because a UTI can progress to a very painful and incapacitating Kidney infection

urinary tract infection cause
I have been having pains in the upper part of my legs and hips upon sitting a long time, and when I rise in the morning. Today I found out I have a urinary tract infection, can the two be connected?
Yes, it can be connected, but you really need to consult with your Doctor, it could be something else. I have pain in my upper legs and hips in the morning, and when I walk just a short period of time, but I have brusitus in my hips. Any time you have pain, your body is trying to tell you something is wrong, so have it cecked out by your physician. Always listen to what your body is telling you.

some common symptoms include pain during urination, frequent urination, pressure in lower abdomen in the bladder area, and pain in your back just below the rib cage. this is a common issue with females and occasional males. this is treatable with some common antibiotics and urogesics (an analgesic for your urethra taken orally…basically stops the pain during urination). however, it is important that you see a doctor because if left untreated it could develop into a bladder infection or kidney infection and become very dangerous. like any other infection in the body, if untreated you could become septic and require hospitilization. see a doctor and get a urine test. its simple and easy to fix. here is some more info on the subject. hope its helpful!!
