Thanks for your replies. I've been busy with my Bunky. I took him for a second opinion. I believe one of the best in the area, Cornell University. They said all options have been really tried. They took a urinalysis directly from the bladder and took some blood to make sure the kitty valium...

We have tried the diet in the beginning actually around a month in a half worth. The vet made it seem as though he was improving all along. He has had several ultrasounds, I believe each time he goes in. That is how we knew he was getting better. Up until this last 8 day stay, he was...

My Bunky was in the vets for 8 days this time. He would block every other day:-( He's home, and very doped up now. He's on the antibiotics still and they also added Diazepam to his prescriptions. I'm nervous because the vet wants to do surgery in the next week or two to cut his bladder...

We will definately take a peak at that site. Thanks for the link beandip. Bunky is very picky. We tried taking all solid food away, only to have him not touch the moist food for over 24 hrs no matter how we presented it to him. With his meds, he needs to have food in him otherwise his...

The first time he was at the vets in Jan, they ran blood work. They originally thought it was renal disease, but when the test was ran again in a couple of days, it came back regular. They have also been continually testing his urine - the 8 strip test? It has the Ph, glucose, and 5 other...

He was only prescribed Baytril and Clavomax. Now he is on Baytril and amoxicillin in addition to his S/D diet. Thanks for your responses.

Thanks for the advice. Would you happen to have any special tricks to getting your cat to eat wet food? We had him on S/D (wet) for about 3 or 4 days, but he soon refused to eat the wet version. He's a strange, picky cat, I know. Oh, and how much trouble did you have with your cats crystals...

He eats almost only dry food, but he drinks a TON of water. We have a water filtering dish that he loves, which we specifically got to help him drink more. Before he had his first block, we were feeding him Dad's Cat Food (dry) and occasionally he would get a pouch of WHiska's Moist food. Oh...

I have a cat that has been in and out of the vet's for the last 3 months. He has been having bladder blockage due to crystals forming in his urine. He has been blocked 4 times already, and is currently in the Vet's once again to drain his bladder. He went about a month without any problems at...
