    Thanks Randi. He only eats grain free dry cat food and gets chicken broth at night. Both Alani & Blaze don't do well on any canned food that I've tried giving to them. They love it but it gives them diarrhea. The vet mentioned about putting him on a urinary diet probably one of the prescription ones which have horrible ingredients and then end up making cats fat. Storm was on a few and they never really helped him and just made all of my cats fat. My vet is also working today so this vet was going to talk to her and I hope to have more food options available to me. I would like to stick with a grain free diet if I can.

    Thanks everyone. I just talked to the vet. She said that he has a lot of struvite crystals and he some how did some damage to the tip of his penis possibly by biting or licking it a lot. It may have scar tissue so I need to be prepared in case he needs PU surgery. His blood work looks good. I'll be visting him later today and I'll be talking more to my vet about him tomorrow.
