Thanks guys!
Phoenix is home and I just watched him pee in the litter box. I didn’t know that a puddle of pee could make me so happy. I went to see him last night when he was all drugged up. His catheter was removed this morning, but he had to stay for observation until this evening. The Vet said his bladder was enlarged to the size of a lemon and good thing that it was caught early. He gave me Purina prescription food. Geez - another food change. This is the first time in 11 years that Phoenix had a urinary problem and I really hope that he doesn’t have to have an operation in the future. I’ve read that stress could be a major factor as well, so I’m going to try some Feliway or rescue remedy to calm him down. My cats have a water fountain but maybe I should buy bottled water. Phoenix seems to be sore but happy to be home. He is so sweet right now; I can pet him without him whining. I don’t think the girls missed him at all. Auggie is walking around scared with her tail between her legs, because she’s seen the evil pet carrier. She sure was happy last night when poor Phoenix wasn’t here.

Got to figure out how to wash the urine (from the catheter leakage) of his fuzzy behind. I'm not brave enough to give this 16 pound wildcat a bath.
I'm so glad he is feeling better.
Moo's mom, I hear you - that was the most expensive bag of cat-food I ever bought.
