Another blocked kitty!

[Prairie Purrs]

Well, Caly was trying to go both inside and outside the litterbox this morning without success, so I called the vet. Seems my regular vet will be out of town this afternoon, so they said, "Sorry, try someone else." So I took him to a vet in the next town over, where Kiri was hospitalized during her last days.

The vet thought Caly might not be blocked because his bladder wasn't too full, but he's going to try to find a way to ease the little guy's discomfort. So it's another day of hospitalization for poor Cal. He and I are both entirely stressed out at this point.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I remember that after Storm had his PU surgery he wasn't peeing very much so I also freaked out and took him in for a recheck. Luckily everything was fine and his bladder was also empty. I hope that he'll start feeling more comfortable soon and get back to normal quickly. Please continue to keep us updated about him.

Aw, poor little guy. How's he doing today?

I'm so sorry to hear Caly still has problems. Hopefully everything will be fine in a few days. It must have been stressful for him with the vet visits etc.

Sending lots of positive thoughts and kisses to your dear boy.

Poor Caly! The catheter had to go back in yesterday and will come out today. With luck, he'll be able to come home late this afternoon. The reblocking worries me a great deal, of course, because the more times he has to be cathed, the more likely he'll need surgery.

I am so sorry to read that your boy is STILL having problems!!! MEGA prayers.....and hugs for you!!!

I'm so sorry to hear that he had to be catheterized again. I was told by Storm's surgeon that the more times a cat is catheterized the more likely that they can develop scar tissue which can also cause problems. Even though Storm was only catheterized one time that I know of he had so much scar tissue that they weren't even able to catheterize him the second time so he needed PU surgery asap. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent Caly's way.
