6 Pack Nosorb Non Absorbent Cat Litter Urine Test Cup Catco Veterinary Products

This was the only item that worked to get a urine sample from my cat! My vet suggested using a certain type of bean which never worked at all because my cat hated stepping on the beans! No Sorb is a Great item, easy to use & the cat doesn't mind stepping on it!! The urine easily drains from the plastic pellets. The only thing I would recommend is using 2 containers of No Sorb for a large cat.

I used this product to collect a urine sample from my cat at my vets request. This worked immediately. My cat was so sick from a UTI infection, the vet was unable to draw a sample and provided me with this product. I replaced the litter with these beads and in the same day my cat used it , I was able to push the beads back, tip the litter box up and use a syringe to suck up the urine and place it in the empty container and run it to my vet for analysis. So easy and no pain for my cat. For Cats this is a miracle product, thank you to whom ever developed it.

As a vet tech, I can tell you that this is the product I have always used in every Clinic in which I have worked. When you cannot express your kitty or get a cystocentesis at the Clinic but you need urine collection, all you have to do is fill a clean litter box with one little container of NoSorb and wait for your kitty to urinate. Of course you will have to isolate your kitty if living in a multi-cat household. The little pellets will not absorb (thus NoSorb) the urine, but they will give our kitty a way to feel like he/she is burying the urine. Then you can go in with your sterile syringe and cup from your Clinic ro even use the very container from the NoSorb you just emptied into the box, to collect the urine that has pooled in the box around the NoSorb pellets to take into your Clinic. Super easy and non-invasive as compared to a cysto, bladder expression or even attempting to put a cup under your kitty while he/she is peeing (way easier with a dog...) and more natural than trying to get your kitty to pee on a plastic wrap covered litter box, as he/she will not worry about getting paws wet and be able to use the NoSorb to cover the urine. Highly recommend.

We bought these because a prior vet had them in her office to use for cats that wouldn't give a urine sample. Our new vet didn't have them and we needed a sample to assess his issues and he wouldn't go at the vet office. So I found them myself. They work really well. He seems to think it's just litter and had zero issues using them. We've always put them in a small wash basin from the dollar store and when he goes we pour as much as we can, pellets and all, back into the cup they come in. Our new vet seemed impressed at how well the work for our cat after the shredded paper they gave us to use didn't work and he wouldn't go.

I’m sure this product works. Our old gal, however, is a champion at holding her pee and will absolutely refuse to go somewhere she finds suspicious. She found Nosorb suspicious and would not go anywhere near her litter box. Rather than have her hold her bladder any longer, I switched back to regular litter and she went right away.

We have a cat who suffers from frequent UTI's (he has FLUTD). His urine always needs to be tested when he gets a UTI because he has developed a resistance to some of the antibiotics used to treat them. This litter is plastic and does not absorb the urine at all, so it is easy to capture a sample from the box and get it to my Vet. Unfortunately, this litter is very expensive and I have to use about 5 cups every time. I'd love to find something that works as well as this that is more affordable, but as I said, it works exactly as it is meant to.

Several days now and my cat has not gone in. Probably need to use all 6 containers to cover litter box and then it still doesn't deliver. I agree with other poster that the granules are probably rough on a cat's feet. What will happen if the cat does urinate in it -- their paws will no doubt step into the urine. If no success tomorrow, I will be returning the product.

This is very useful to have on hand if you want to collect a urine sample from kitty.
