Thanks Phred, I know that there's a risk he'll block up again. This is the third time he had a catheter put up and been flushed - twice at our own vet and once in the hospital. The shortest period of time it took him to block up again has been 2 months. However he has been showing signs that he would in between, but went back to peeing anyway, after I gave him half a "Romefen" (painkiller)

He had the cahteter put in and removed after a few hours each time. He was not bleeding the other two times, so we nearly panicked last night. We called the emergency vets at the hospital, but they said there was no immediate danger. This morning I rang both vet hospitals in CPH. and also our own vet. They all said not to worry for his life. However, we've booked him at this coming wednesday at 9.40 for the operation. We can't go on like this any longer! If he don't have the operation it's a matter of time when he will block up again.

There's also some good news! He has eaten, peed and pooped like normal and during the night he was drinking half a glass of water (almost as usual) At the moment, he's lying on John's stomack in bed purring away and looking like he's in heaven!! He has even been up in the windowsill! When I was cooking dinner (no, not clams!) he came out in the kitchen - and would you believe it, he looked very intensely at the door leading down to the yard! NO WAY mister Fister!!

We would like to thank you all again for this wonderful support - it has been truly heartwarming!

How is Boots doing??? We hope he's feeling great!!!
