I came home to a Mishi who was obviously in distress. He was straining at the litter box, yowling pathetically. I panicked and thought he was blocked.
Of course his regular vet's office had just closed, so I decided to try a different E.R - one much closer to home than the one his vet recommends. I really like Pets Unlimited. We were there for three hours. Poor Mishi is/was constipated. An X-ray also showed some tiny bladder stones. So they gave him an enema which helped a little. The vet recommended a change in diet to C/D and sent him home with a medication to help prevent urethral cramping. It's in capsule form, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to get him to take it. We'll see
Right now he's home, resting, but still obviously not feeling too great. I'm just beside myself, as there seems to be so many things going wrong with my poor Boybee. I guess we'll just take it one day at a time and hope for the best.
One thing that cracked me up, they just couldn't get his name right! They had him down as "Mismi" and no matter what I did to try and show them how it's spelled, they still couldn't get it. So please continue your prayers for my "Mismi."

I'm glad that you were able to take him to the ER vet's and that they could help him. I knew there were some better vets around in your area. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way. I sure hope that he'll feel better soon. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
