How to clean cystals?

[Catty1]

Warm salt water may help. Vinegar would for sure, but OWWW!

Baby or olive oil? Might help ease them off, like a WD40 treatment.

Poor Pouncer! It must be so frustrating to have this wonderful boy get so sick!

Hugs to you and Pouncer.

perhaps something greasy to keep them from sticking in the first place, like preparation H or KY jelly?

You might try some aloe vera gel. As far as I know, it's non-toxic and would definately soothe his little tooshie. It would probably soften the crystals, as well.

Owwie! Only thing I can think of is to do a warm water flush, like with a squeeze bottle (like mustard comes in) then gently pat the area clean and dry thouroughly. That's kinda how I cleaned up Josh when he was little and having problems peeing.

I hope things get straightened out for both of you soon.

I'm sorry to hear he's sick again. Would he allow you to dunk him in a tub of warm water? Then you could put something soothing on him afterwards. I'm sending some prayers and positive thoughts his way.

If Pouncer will sit still for it, I would sit him in warm water and then try to wipe those pellets off. My Princess has the same problem with clingons, as hes getting a bit dotty, and the warm wet cloth generally works the best.
Poor Little Pouncer certainly has had his fill of problems.

Poor Pouncer! That boy is always having a problem! I feel so sorry for him. I'd suggest a cotton ball soaked in warm water to wipe the area with maybe? They do NOT like you messing with that area so good luck!
