Giving him cranberry juice or pearl barley gloop would help with his cystitis. I had always thought too much protein in the diet was a cause of cystitis not calcuim. Hmm maybe its both. The following link should help you out alot. www.oginet.com/pgurney/cystitis.htmKayleigh

Guinea Lynx has a page here that shows the calcium content of different foods. They have a page here about stones and down the page they discuss diet that can help prevent certain stones from forming. Hope that helps!
