Question. Please read. (update: Doesn't seem good...)

Awww...I didn't notice the shaved bit on his front leg before. Lots of get-better kisses from Meowmie?

Prayers for healing to continue, and for Butter to be as good as ever.

What a beautiful shiney boy!

Thank you for the update, Audrey. It's great to see some pics of your Butter boy. He is such a handsome cat. I really hope everything will be ok with him, let us know how the appointment on thursday goes.

Thanks for the update. I've been thinking about him and wondering how he was doing. He sure is a very handsome boy and I hope that he continues to pee. Lots of positive vibes are going out to him for Thursday's vet visit. I'll also continue to keep him in my thoughts and prayers. Please take care.

I've been thinking about you and Butter a lot. I have been checking this thread but I just don't know what to say except that I'm very sorry that you are going through this. I know that you will do whatever you can for him and I'll support whichever decision you make.

Thanks for the update and pictures Audrey. Handsome little Butter.

I hope his Thursday appointment goes well.

Yes, I know the majority are very kind people.

I took Butter out for his heart to be checked. He said Butter was excellent, and sat right where he was suppost to. Everyone keeps telling me how sweet he is. There was like 3-4 vet students today, and Butter went around and got his love from everyone.

I can't remember what the condition is called, but he said it is genetic, and unrelating to his bladder problem. Part of lining in his heart is larger than normal? Anyway, he said for now he is fine, but needs to be checked again next year and closely monitored. He may someday have problems with it...like trouble breathing, panting, stiffness, etc. He will need to go on meds for the rest of his life when that happens...but that is managable. Phew! I'm glad that part is done with.

As for his pee...They took a sample and I won't know until tomorrow what the results are. He said his pee looked clear to him (no grit etc) but the tests will say for sure. He still isn't peeing properly, but it could be taking him longer to get better. I'm afraid to feel releaved, as I know when I do he'll get sick again. Hopefully the tests come back good anyway.

He is being his normal very happy self lately.

slleipnir, it's such a difficult situation you're in. I understand your money problem, if one of my girls would need a treatment that expensive, I'd be in the same dilemma.

I'll keep you and Butter in my thoughts, and I hope his bladder problems will get better without an expensive surgery that's also risky for him because of his heart condition. Maybe the test result of the urine sample will give you some answers.

BTW, thanks for posting his pictures, he resembles my RB Katz a lot!
