Re: Help


Hey everyone, Alex had to have three catheters and a surgery but is home now and is recovering nicely. Unfortunately, this whole thing cost me $1300. Thank god he's ok. Thanks for all of the support.

Re: Help


Alex still seems to be straining when he tries to urinate. I'm getting frustrated. Could this be because of the discomfort from the surgery??? Other than the strain, he is playing and eating and is in good spirits.

Re: Help


I'd call my vet about this if I were you, Missy. Might be just the surgery, but better safe than sorry...let us know, please, how it's going......

Re: Help


I also think you should get the vet to take another look. The surgery can cause discomfort but cats tend to bounce back quickly, and when this happened to a cat I know, he was fine again in a matter of days when previously he was at death's door. I hope Alex is ok . . .
