    I'm so sorry to hear this. I've been through both the blockage part and the infection part as well as two of my cats peeing very tiny amounts without having any kind of infection. I know how frustrating it can be but I'm glad that you know what to look for so he can be treated quickly. I hope that he'll make a quick recovery. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

    Yay! Sherpa's X-ray showed NO blockage! He's spending the night in the hospital because my assistant manager left sick today so I couldn't get home in time to pick him up. Looks like he'll be eating Purina UR canned food for the forseeable future.

    My poor boy, it feels wrong to be at the computer without him in my lap!

    I'm so glad to hear that he wasn't blocked and hopefully he'll love his new food. Good luck.

    Dearest Sherpa, we're so glad you're not blocked! Your new food will be just fine.

    Sherpa is home!! I have lots of pain medication for hims since he's still pretty uncomfortable, and he LOVES the new food! It's going to be pricey since I can't figure out a way to feed him one thing and the other two something else, so for now all three cats are going to eat it. (we got the thumbs-up from the vet for this plan, she sayd it's fine for healthy cats to eat too)

    He slept on me last night, which he rarely does, so I think (I hope) he's thankful to be home and feeling better.

    Awww, so glad he's home - and I bet he is, too! At least the food is okay for the others to eat, too, so you do not have to manage a stressful feeding time segregation routine!
