Poorly Jerry

[Erin]

I noticed this morning Jerry was going in and out of the litter trays alot and only passing a small amount of urine.
By this afternoon he was hardly passing any at all.
Took him to the vets this evening,she couldnt feel any blockage but Jerry was is some pain (he hissed at her and nearly took her eyes out,this was right after she was saying how good he was being :roll: :lol:) so he has had a antibiotic and pain reliefe injection,I have to give him cystaid twice a day and metacam.
Hes not going to be very impressed because Im going to have to have him shut in the bedroom with me tonight with a tray so I can see if has used it at all,if he doesnt go by tomorrow I have to take him back in (fingers crossed he does a wee please!!),if he does go I just have to take him back in for a checkup on sat.
My poor baby is very sleepy from the injections and hates me at the moment :(

[Moli]

My poor baby, doubt he hates you Erin, he is probably uncomfortable....fingers crossed he is better tomorrow...Catsey cats seem to be taking it in turns at the mo to go to the vets!!
Big Hugs and heling vibes coming your way...

[Elaine]

[Kazz]

Healing vibes by the bucket load for Jerry. Merlin is sending his usual purrrrrrrrrrrrs. Must be so uncomfortable for him - you know he doesn't hate you Erin! As soon as the anti inflammatory and anti bios take effect, he'll wee, you'll see with that little smile of relief on his face. :) :) :)

[Erin]

Thanks angie :D

Just gave him his cystaid,he ate half of his food then i think he realised that something wasnt quite right cause hes turning his nose up at it now :lol: ill try him again with the rest of it later

[Mags]

I hope he'll feel easier tomorrow Erin, poor boy doesn't understand why he's hurting and is feeling miserable. He'll be fine again with you very soon..;)

[dandysmom]

Poor baby, cystitis is no fun and he's in discomfort. If we could only explain to them......
Sending weeing vibes by the truckload!!

[alexgirl73]

awwww, poor Jerry! I remember how worried I was when Broxi was like this last year Erin, but he'll be fine!! Big ((hugs)) to both of you xx

[MrsH]

Poor Jerry, hope the medication soon takes effect and he starts feeling a lot more comfortable.

[babycakes]

Poor Jerry hope he is feeling better soon, big kisses from me and Denis X

[Erin]

Thanks all :D
Still no wee yet,hopefully he will go during the night though

[Erin]

I was a still a little worried when I got up this morning because there was only 1 tiny little wee in the tray.
But I fed them this morning,Jerry was left in the bedroom with the other tray,Ive just been in to check him and.......

we have a great BIG wee!!!!:pom :pom :pom :pom :lol:

Poor baby must have been burtsing!!!

[yola]

Well done Jerry!!! Hopefully the problem's going to resolve itself now! Phew Erin, that must be a weight off your mind :D

[Mags]

Well done Jerry, that must be a weight off his.........bladder!:D

[Erin]

Dont celebrate for too long ladies,hes back to tray hopping now and only doing little bits again :?
I have just been sat down stairs and hes gone round all 4 of the trays did notinging in 2 of them and 2 tiny little wees in the other 2. I bet the injections have worn off now but I cant give him any metacam untill tonight.poor baby

[angieh]

That's the other part of cystitis as I remember - either not being able to wee, or wanting to do a wee with nothing to wee with!

Oh, don't!! I used to get it all the time . . . horrible, horrible thing :mad: Poor Jerry won't be getting what's going on. Could the vet not prescribe some anti-biotics? I know Balie used to get given broad-spectrum ABs to treat his cystitis when it flared up.

Yeah it is just have to wait for the cystaid to start working,hes only had 2 lots so far so hopefully by tomorrow he will start to find it easier

Nasty isnt it,I used to suffer with it alot too,infact got a bout of it while I was at Elaines.
He was given a antibiotic injection along with a painkiller injection while at the vets yesterday. He has the cystaid too and metacam so should start to feel better soon

[dandysmom]

Poor Jerry! Did the test results show it was a infection? I ask because when Leia had it they first put her on antibiotics, than changed to anti inflammatories instead because she didn't have an infection. Give him a cuddle for me!

[babycakes]

Aww poor Jerry,He must be so uncomfortable. I hope he is settling soon

[Erin]

Jerry went back to the vets this morning,the vet was really good,he had a feel and it was very obvious that my baby is still in some pain as he had a growl again :lol:
He has been given a steriod and a penicillin injection and I have to keep him on the cistaid.
The vet said that if he hasnt improved by Wednesday to take him back down but that he was 98% sure he would be greatly improved by Monday.
My boy really does hate me at the moment and has been hiding under a stool behind the sofa,staying as far away from me as poss since we got back,even cheese hasnt made him forgive me yet :shock:

So fingers crossed he will start to feel better now xxx

[MrsH]

Poor Jerry,hope the discomfort goes away soon. Don't worry, he'll forgive you eventually.

[Mags]

Poor Jerry, hope he starts to feel better soon..

He doesn't hate you Erin (((hugs))) , it's just the medication he doesn't like..:? When he's better he will be your loving Jerry once again;)

Oodles of healing vibes on their way to him!:)

[angieh]

Poor Jerry - he doesn't understand. Try not to worry Erin, he'll be better and his usual loving self soon. Lots of healing vibes coming his way and Merlin, who understands exactly what he's feeling, sends reassuring purrrrrrs too!

[dandysmom]

Poor Jerry;he doesn't understand. Hope the medications start working and another vet trip won't be necessary, they do hate that so! Healing vibes coming over the Pond for him...

Cheese didn't work? Sardines....??

[Elaine]

Ouchy, my poor baby, Eva send her love and also her deepest sympathies, she never forgets pain and discomfort and says that it made her feel so much better to bite mums thumb while vets poked her with jabby needles;)

[babycakes]

98% is a good for him getting better. Hope he gradually has a pain free weekend

[Erin]

Im pleased to say that Jerry is feeling much better,hes full of the devil today and has managed 2 big wees :D yay!!!

[dandysmom]

[babycakes]

[Mags]

Woohoo for Jerry!:D

Sounds like he's forgiven you too, Erin..:lol:

[Moli]

[angieh]
