Hi, this evening I noticed that Sunny kept jumping in and out of the litter box. He wouldn't do it right away but would wait 10-15 minutes to jump in again. He kept covering whatever he was doing up so I couldn't see what he was doing. I finally made him get out the last time so I could see if he had done anything. He peed a very small amount so I called the ER and asked them if I should bring him in or should I wait until morning when my vet was open. They said that they could check his bladder free of charge and that if a vet had to exam him it would be $95.
I brought him in and luckily his bladder was empty. Now I have to call my vets office in the morning and I'll have to drop him off for a urinalysis. I sure hope it's nothing more than a simple UTI. Please send him lots of prayers and positive thoughts. My Sunny has never had any urinary tract problems and he'll only be 5 years old on Aug.25th. He usually drinks a lot of water and I've also been adding some water to my furkids food. He has been under a lot of stress lately because I had the carpets cleaned last week and they had to spend the day at my parents house. The people below me are also remodeling their condo and they make a lot of noise and Sky's been trying to play very rough with Sunny and bugging him to death. They also went to have their nails trimmed yesterday so Sunny's been on quite a few car trips lately.
It's very good to know that the ER will do free bladder checks because I always thought that the minute you walked in the door that you would be charged the $95. I'll sleep much better tonight knowing that Sunny's bladder is empty. I'll try to update you tomorrow as soon as I can. Thanks for all of the well wishes in advance.
