What if the cat buries their urine in the sand? Is it still easy to collect?
Answer by ChewyJan 29, 2021
Sometimes, cats like to dig around their litter before or after urinating. Even if the urine is completely covered by the sand, the sample can still be extracted just by moving the sand aside and using the provided pipette.

Can you use this with nosorb?
Answer by ChewyAug 09, 2020
This kit comes with non-absorbent litter holds your cat’s urine on the surface for easy sample collection. It also includes one pipette and one vial with lid for clean, safe transport to the vet.

Does it matter if the kitten has a stool in the litter? Will the sample be contaminated?
Answer by ChewyMar 10, 2021
As the sand is hydrophobic, the urine will puddle up in multiple locations. The sample should be taken from a puddle that has not come in contact with the stool if possible.

Can this be left in the box regularly for multiple collections or do you have to dump and replace after the 1st sample is collected? I have a diabetic cat and need to do frequent glucose/ketone testing.
Answer by ChewyJan 31, 2021
Kit4Cat is a single-use diagnostic kit. However, if you need to test glucose levels over a period of up to 48 hours, you can use a paper towel to absorb the urine from the surface of the sand, so that the same species can urinate again on the same sand. However, if there is any solid waste present, it cannot be reused as the sand will be contaminated for any further use. In general, the best practice is to use Kit4Cat as a single-use diagnostic tool.

wasn't sure at first but now love

My vet said popcorn kernels would work to get a urine sample at home, but my cat avoided it like the plague. I ordered this hoping it would work and at first I wasn't sure because of house much litter comes with it, but my cat used it practically right away. next time if i need to get a sample i'll probably get more litter, but going to repurchase no matter what

It is easy to use

The vials and pipette in the kit are very good. I have used this kit once before to collect urine from our cat for his routine senior exam. I used all three packs of the 'litter' from one kit to give him enough in his regular litter box, and it really wasn't enough to cover the bottom of his box. This is supposed to be for three collections. 900 grams equals almost 2 lbs. The hydrophobic litter is heavy, so it sounds a lot more than what you're actually getting. I wish there was more litter provided in the kit.

Didn't work for us, but still worth a try

Look, we all know cats are finicky creatures. What satisfies one will disgust the next. Ours hated the plastic pellets, so we opted to give this a try. He wouldn't go near it, but clearly it's a winner for a lot of other people. The product is straightforward and as described, and it if has a chance of saving you from a vet visit, it's worth a shot. For what it's worth, our cat ended up letting us collect his urine in a small cup, mid-stream. I'm including this detail because we never would have imagined this method would work, so we only tried it when all other at-home options were exhausted. So if you're reading this and haven't tried that yet...your cat may surprise you!

Not bad for the price

I lined my cats liter box with a liner because I knew without the liter absorbing, things would get yucky. Kit does exactly as described, as you can see from my picture it didn’t absorb any pee at all making it super easy to collect a sample. The only thing I didn’t like about it, and the reason I’m only giving 3 stars, is because it comes with very little liter. I bought 2 kits and used both bags, hardly covered the entire bottom of the liter box.

Works great!

My cat made no distinction between using this and his regular litter (Dr. Elsey's) and did not mind that there was only a small amount of litter (2 of the little bags) in his pan. After that, it was easy to collect the sample with the pipette and put it in the vial provided. At the vet, he would not provide a sample and, if I hadn't had this on hand, I would have had to leave him overnight costing more money and more stress to kitty.

It Worked Very Well!!

I had to get urine from my cat to provide to my Vet for analysis and to rule out kidney disease. I called Vet Emergency Group (VEG) and they recommended Kit4Cat. I bought a kit and set it up in my cat's litter box last night. This morning he checked out the litter with his paw and was not sure what it was. I added half a handful of his own litter to the edge of the box and that convinced him that it was OK to pee in his box. I used the kit's eyedropper to pick up the urine and filled the sample tube, capped it and delivered it to my Vet. It was easy and very effective. I strongly recommend this product. It has enough parts for three samples so I still have two parts in reserve.

Worked perfectly for a picky kitty

I am thrilled to report how well this worked. My cat seemed to be traumatized by the plastic pellets from the vet. I used all 3 little bags to completely cover the box. Even tho is has a bit of a smell to it, my cat had no hesitation with jumping in and having a good pee. I am so relieved I don't have to take her back in to the vet.

Works Well

At first it seemed that my cat wouldn't pee in the box with this, but then she did. Easy to take a sample and take to the vet for a lab test.
