    Kurby's At The Emergency Room

    We just got home from dinner and I noticed Kurby acting strangely. He was walking around growling (totally unusual for him) and then flopping on the ground. He would then proceed to lick in his private area, and then growl. I’m thinking he either has a UTI or blockage. Please send Kurby your well wishes.

Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    Oh No, No, No!!! Not precious Kurby. Big time prayers on the way that it isn't anything serious and just an UTI that can be taken care of with medication.

    I've never heard of a cat reacting that way though, or is this something normal that they do with a blockage or an UTI?

    Come on sweetie, you have a full and speedy recovery now ya hear!

    I'm not sure either except the growling might be a sign he's in pain and leave him alone (the other cats). The licking could be a sign where it's hurting and he's trying to make it feel better?

    I hope Kurby's feeling better and back home soon! *Fingers crossed* that it's not a blockage!

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    He's baaaaaaaaaaack and has a UTI. There are crystals but they're not sure if the infection caused them, or the crystals caused the infection. We'll know more once they see if the medications work. Keep your fingers crossed it will develop into anything further.

    Oh no, poor Kurby! I sure hope it's nothing too serious and that he's home again real soon.
