    I'm very surprised they did manual expression when your cat obviously has large crystals... that can easily cause blockage and rupture the bladder Males especially block VERY easily. Poor baby

    Though I don't normally recommend it, Science Diet does have good veterinary formulas for urinary problems as well as Purina too. Sorry I can't be of much help other than that!

    Im not sure if that was his intent. They all seem to feel the bladder during the exam, I guess for stones? The vet today laid him down and felt his bladder too. That day we got a little surprise.

    Today the bladder was empty.

    I saw what it looked like on the table, just like sand.....I cant imagine what that feels like to pass that. Ouch.
