Re: Pet Paradise

Thank you @Tamara76 for your kind words 💖

Re: Pet Paradise

Hi there @myumew! Good news is that your vet isn't wrong. The antibiotics are to prevent an infection. It's pretty important even though the issue itself isn't bacterial, an infection could make things much, much, much worse. Because the urethra is open to germs, we want to keep kitty safe. Painkillers I'm sure you understand. Did you get an x-ray done of kitty? If it's idiopathic cystitis - it's generally quite manageable. Did the vet switch foods and encourage you to increase the water intake for kitty? If it's an Urethral Obstruction, I'm assuming that she's hoping that it will pass instead of having to do surgery, which is costly. 

 

I would suggest upping the water intake. Switching to wet food, providing clean fresh water, adding flavor to the water to encourage drinking. 

 

If the vet did not do an x-ray I would return to request one as it should let them know if it's a blockage or an issue with the bladder ( commonly found with idiopathic cystitis). Also a urine culture should be done (urine can be extracted with a needle) and given IV fluids. 

 

I would absolutely in no way go with a home remedy as you can make the situation worse. I would absolutely advocate for additional diagnosis for kitty. 

 

Neither one of these are fatal with proper care. Surgery may be required if there is a blockage that kitty can not pass. These things should be seen in an x-ray. 

 

Hope this helps!

Re: Pet Paradise

Thank you so much @themusefactory 😭😭😭 and @ZombieMetroAnt for tagging her. I feel a lot better that the treatment makes more sense to me now. Fortunately he started urinating more than just the few drops after the vet visit. 😭 Literally tears of happiness lol

Re: Pet Paradise

Thanks for the sound advice @themusefactory Heart 

Re: Pet Paradise

Oh no @myumew!  I'm so sorry to hear that Cat Sad I'm only here for moral support because I don't have any suggestions.  I hope he gets better real quick and that he doesn't have a negative reaction to the Rx Heart Sending you lots of love and good vibes.

 

@themusefactory, has this ever happened to your babies?
