A wetting apparatus ( ) for wetting a hydrophilic urinary catheter ( ) comprises a wetting receptacle ( ) which defines a wetting fluid receiving area ( ) for receiving the hydrophilic urinary catheter and a hydrophilic urinary catheter wetting fluid container ( ) having a discharge outlet ( ) movable from a closed position to an open position on application of a predetermined condition thereto to enable the wetting fluid to be discharged from the wetting fluid container. The wetting fluid container provided can be positioned in the wetting receptacle in an operational position in which at least the discharge outlet of the wetting fluid container is disposed within the bounds of the wetting receptacle, the wetting receptacle being so constructed and the wetting fluid container being so disposed relative to the wetting receptacle when in the operational position that application of the predetermined condition to the discharge outlet of the wetting fluid container when in the operational position enables the wetting fluid to be discharged into the wetting fluid receiving area for wetting of the hydrophilic urinary catheter.
