Make sure she gets plenty of water until you can get her to the vet - even if you have to force it down her throat. I don't know if you've ever had a UTI yourself, but drinking lots of water does ease the discomfort somewhat. Also, make sure that she does pee a "good" pee now and then because if she is blocked altogether, that can be fatal within 24 hours.
T & P never had a UTI in their lives until about a year ago. Then Tubby got one and about 6 months later Peanut got one. I don't remember how old Bear is, but they are just like old people in that their immune systems get weaker as they get older, so it's harder for them to fight these types of infections off.
I don't know how to tell if she is totally blocked, but keep a real good eye on her.
Good luck Bear. Hang in there and you'll be better as soon as they get those meds into you!
