Please send some good thoughts and prayers to Sox.

My parent's cat Sox, who is 22 lbs and NOT overweight (he's HUGE!!) is at the vet right now. Mom said he had been crying since I think yesterday afternoon, and she had noticed some strange behaviour in the litter box. They took him to the vet first thing this morning and he has blocked kidneys.. probably kidney stones but they don't know yet for sure. They have to drain his bladder (that is why he was crying, he had to pee and couldn't!!) and then they will analyse the stones etc to see what's wrong.

Please say a prayer that he's ok. He's about 9yrs old, and otherwise in good health.

Oh poor Sox! That must have been horrible for the big guy! Prayers and good thoughts are on the way for Sox. Keep us posted on how he is doing.

Poor Sox...prayers are on the way right now that all works out OK for Sox and your parents. Keep us posted.

Prayers for Sox! I hope he isn't in any discomfort any longer.

Oh no, poor Sox. He must be in such discomfort. Prayers on the way that the whitecoats can fix him up right away.

[RedHedd]

Oh poor Sox! Fingers and paws crossed here that he has some relief soon. Mishi has kidney problems and has been doing terrific on the K/D food. Now I have to figure out how to keep Mitzi out of his food! Please keep us updated on Sox' condition.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Oh poor Sox. I sure hope they find out what the problem is and that it can be remedied.

Hang in there Sox, you'll be better in no time!

Poor Sox. We're praying for you big guy. Hopefully an analysis of the stones will tell the white coats what's going on. There's probably a diet change in his future. That's not going to be fun for anyone!

[Fallon]

Poor Sox. My thoughts are with you. It breaks my heart to know he was suffering that way. I'm sure he's going to get better though!

[kimlovescats]

Poor Sox ... he must have been in some severe pain. Glad he is being cared for at the vets now, and hope and pray that he will be back to good health really soon!

[Felicia's Mom]

Prayers and positive thoughts on the way that Sox has a full and complete recovery.

He has to have a surgery at 11am tomorrow, to remove the stones. Luckily my parents caught it RIGHT away, and there is no infections or any kind of damage. The vet said either he's a very lucky cat or my parents are very observant. My dad told me what he had but I can't remember all the exact names right now, but it's something like FLUDT (Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease). I will let you know how he does with the surgery, sometime tomorrow evening.

Please keep up the prayers! Thanks!
