Hi Lacy,
I think he needs to see a vet as soon as possible! This does not sound like an attitude problem! Perhaps there is a blockage, an infection, or something else, I am not a vet, but sounds like something that needs attention quickly!

Frisky has an appointment tomorrow morning.

Take your cat to this vet immediately. It sounds like he has a bladder infection. I don't want to alarm you, but my cat was unable to urinate more than a drop or to and also starting going everywhere in the house. I took him to the vet who inserted a catheter into by cat. Bosco had to stay at the vet the entire weekend. I picked him up Monday. Had him back to the vet Tuesday when he still couldn't urinate. At that time, I also found out he was in kidney failure. His kidney tests were so high they were almost off the chart. I had to put him down that day. That was May 14, 2002 and it was the worst day of my life. PLEASE TAKE YOUR CAT TO THE VET!!! Keep us posted.

Don't wait..get him in ASAP. If he has a blockage this will be fatal to him. He needs immediate attention.

[Lacy]

i just called the vet and they said he wouldn't go pee all day. so they have to keep him overnight!

[Barbara]

So is he there now? Good for him because they will find the reason

All paws and fingers here are crossed and we send our warmest thoughts.

[Lacy]

yes...he is there now. i'm hoping he will pee at least a little so they can test him. he's 14..so i don't know if anything serious is wrong or not.

Frisky is gorgeous, what a babe, just worth a mention, cats can become senile just as humans do, i do hope i am wrong here, but i wondered about the constant miaowing, saw this programme on tv this cat had become senile and did the same thing, dont know about the spraying problem though, could be same thing, its a possiblility .

Frisky had a UTI. The vet said he's perfectly fine now and that he can llive another 4-5 yrs!!!!

[jenluckenbach]

That is great news. Now everyone knows why it is so important to observing your pet for unusual symptoms and promptly reporting them to your vet. I am so glad it is a simple problem. Yeah!!!

[K & L]

I'm so glad he'll be OK! Those ole UTI's.....

[carole]

oh that is wonderful news, that u got the problem sorted, yeah frisky, poor little thing, hope she is ok now.

Congratulations I am so glad that it was something relatively simple to treat. Now comes the "fun" part ...trying to give him the antibiotics to treat the UTI.

Some cats (like humans) can develop diarrhea as a side effect from the antibiotics, so keep an eye on that. You can give him some unflavoured yogurt and it should help him avoid any problems with the diarrhea.

We are all very happy for you
