Has anyone tried Cranberry for UTI's?

I can supply testimony that Cranberry is a great way to prevent UTI's in humans. As a person who gets recurring UTI's, taking AZO has been a great preventative measure.

But cranberry and cranberry suplements don't cure a UTI, for that you still need a doctor's visit and some antibiotics.

I suppose if you have a kitty that has recurring UTI's and the vet bills are starting to get costly, then I don't see the harm in attempting a hollistic approach and controlling the problem.
It's an interesting idea, one I've never thought of, and would probably try if I ever had problems with Bean.

I have no thoughts about cranberry, but if you are looking for a good book with holistic advice for cats, get the new edition of Anitra Frazier's "The Natural Cat." It's full of good diet and nursing advice, too!
