Does he usually dring less, or more, water than the other cats do?

Thanks Liz.

I don't really know if he drinks less but like I said I had been feeding Alani and Blaze only dry food for a while because they kept on getting diarrhea/mushy stools all over their fluffy bottoms. My older four always get canned as well as dry every day. I'm hoping that by adding water to a little bit of the canned that this will solve the urinary problem and the diarrhea/mushy stool problem. They sure seem to love it so far.

I am sending both you and Alani prayers and good wishes! I know how worried a meowmom can get when one of their babies has a pee problem. Ming hasn't had an episode in over two years, but I still watch him like a hawk!

Thanks so much.

So far there's been no improvement.

I found a small drop of blood on his fur near his bottom area but his pee area still looked good. He may have cleaned it up. Later I found some blood on my carpet near the hall bathroom and this is where Alani and Blaze go to eat and they can also use the litter box that's in there. He's been jumping in and out of the litter boxes again too with very little pee.

I gave him some more Buprenex around 8:30pm and he seems immune to it. The last time I looked in on him he was still very alert. I've never had a cat that didn't get sleepy from it. If things continue like this tomorrow, it looks like I'll have to bring him back to my vet. If so I sure hope that she's able to get a urine sample from him. Even it's normal, at least then I'll have some peace of mind before I have to go back to work on Wed. Please keep the prayers coming.

I am really sorry- I think it is important to get little Alani to the vet again as it can be dangerous for him if he doesn't pee. All the best for him.

Thanks again everyone.

I think that the medicine must have finally kicked in some time over night because I haven't seen Alani jumping in and out of the litter boxes at all today. He's also acting much more alert and playful.

When I cleaned out the litter boxes this morning, there were still a lot of very small pee biscuits. Ever since I cleaned them out I haven't seen any more of them. I still haven't seen Alani pee at all today but I think he made a fairly good pee when I went back to bed after I fed them this morning. Only he and Blaze were out in the main area of my condo for several hours and Blaze peed in front of me when I woke up and went out to check on Alani again.

I keep putting Alani in a box hoping that he'll pee in front of me but he just jumps out. If he wasn't acting normal then I would still be very concerned. Please continue with the good vibes and prayers because I think that they're working.

I also took some new pictures of them and I'll be starting a thread about it in cat general some time today.
