Leo had crystals in his bladder, he was trying to pee, but was just spottng....He had a op to remove them, and is now on a special diet and had injections once a month to strengthen his bladder wall.... Hope all goes well with Oliver... |

 yikes. Is Leo completely recovered now, then?Thank you all. My vet said that Oliver wouldn't need surgery, that the food would help. I asked if I could have it in the fridge the weekend over, and they said yes.. I've saved the pearls (rinsed them off first and let them dry) so I can just do it again, if its not working... The alternative would have been for the vet to try and get the urine sample,, And I didnt want Oliver to go through that if I could get the sample myself, so I was given the weekend to try... I hope its working so I can get an answer soon.. |

It was my fault Leo needed surgey, I did not pick up on it in time  , he was completely blocked..If I had, he would have just got the food to help him...He is fine now, that was 5 years ago and he has not had any problems since.... |

Jeanette - I hope Oliver's OK. My blue boy, Balie regularly suffers from UTI. He has been tested for crystals but none have been present. Hopefully Oliver's just got a straightforward UTI and antibiotics will clear it up. A full blockage (as Moli describes) is nasty. My neighbour's cat had it and it nearly killed him (I found him writhing in pain in my garden and alerted them). He too had to have an emergency op and ongoing medication. |

Hope he'll be OK J. Sure he will. Years ago (over 30! ), when dry food was not as well formulated as now, I had a boy who had urine retention. He squatted and squatted but couldn't pee. He escaped an op because my vet at the time was keen on complementary as well as orthodox medicine and used acupuncture to make things relax. |
