Abstract
The presence of stones in the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra is the definition of urolithiasis. This article aims to explain a case report of a Persian cat suffering from urolithiasis with symptoms of anorexia, dysuria, polyuria and hematuria for two weeks. On inspection the cat shows difficulty when urinating. Supporting examination on urinalysis showed that the urine contained leukocytes, pH 8.5, and urine sedimentation examination showed the presence of struvite crystals. The results of the ultrasound examination showed a luminescent hiperekhoik mass in the bladder. Urine culture showed the growth of Staphylococcus sp. bacteria. Radiography and hematology did not show any abnormalities. Treatment with ciprofloxacin, kejibeling (Strobilanthes crispus extract) accompanied by a urinary diet showed an improvement in the animal's condition as indicated by the cat being able to urinate normally and without blood. Treatment with ciprofloxacin and kejibeling for 14 days accompanied by a urinary diet improved the animal's condition as indicated by the cat being able to urinate normally without blood. It is recommended for identification of the bacterial genus Staphylococcus sp. which hydrolyzes urea to confirm.
