Ok, I have not shared this with anyone here, but I've been VERY concerned about Pouncer and crystals in his urinary tract. He was blocked last week, but finally managed to pee on his own (I had separated him from all the other cats for a full 24 hours).
Today he's blocked again. While straining, he DID get one little, itsy bitsy drop. We're talking tiny - no bigger than a raindrop size. I managed to catch it on a plastic bag. How big does it need to be for the vet to analyze it for crystals? My vet is not opened for two more hours, and I will drop it off immediately, but I need to know if the sample I managed to get was large enough or if I should keep following him around.
Also, PLEASE pray for my hissy boy! If its crystals, and we caught it in time, then I'll do whatever is necessary to manage it with diet. I have no idea what'll happen if we're a bit late and it starts running into serious moneyI also will kick myself because I know stress is a contributing factor and he's been very stressed with my fostering. If he has crystals... I will no longer be fostering. I cannot put him through it.
