I need to buy some urine test strips.
I looked on Amazon and see you can get differnt types for humans and pets (targeted mainly at dogs and cats).

Do I need strips specifically for animals, or will human ones be ok?

Sorry for all of the urine related questions this morning!
 
They are exactly the same. Some markers on human strips will react to piggy wee but not mean anything. The only one that matters is blood really. Or if there is a lot of glucose. Obviously get your vet to repeat the test if something shows up
