Thanks for the info, I'll definitly mention that if the vet doesnt!
What I mean is why doesn't the vet take the sample via cystocentesis (needle through body wall into bladder...no its not as bad as it sounds. ...Ellie has had a few of them)? It is very common and should be taken this way if the urine is sent for culture. This way it is bacteria free.
