Hi everyone I went to see Stamford twice now, first time poor thing was so annoyed as he had a bandage on his leg for the drip as he was not eating and had his horrible lampshade collar on. So he was not happy. I took off his collar and then the nurses came in with some nice food so I could...

Sorry I think it went a bit too big!

Now I have thought about it you are all definitely right, I am going to see him Friday - I am quite excited now. Thanks for the picture advice I'm trying to use it now see if it works. My cats name is Stamford he is 9 yrs ols. he also has 3 adopted sisters who he loves. Lets see if it works...

The specialist is about 50 mins awa but it is also on the motorway (I hate the motorway!) and I have to work. But I am thinking I may take the day off work on Friday and then I can spend lots of time with him. He has to stay 10 days so that they can monitor him and so they can make sure his...

Hi Yes they do allow visits but they say sometimes visits help and sometimes it may prevent them from settling in. I think I'll see how he is tomorrow. Thanks for your kind words though, I hope he will get better soon, and yes I should follow my heart, I do want to see him, he is such a...

Hi My poor cat has been referred to a vet specialist as he won't pee. All test were clear, but they think his bladder muscles are not working and his bladder was enlarged. He has to stay at the vet specialists for 10 days! They have put a catheter on him and also given him drugs to get his...

Thanks for advice everyone and the link, I will ask the vet today, and thanks for the apron tip!

Hi I am in a similar situation, my cat has been to the vets and they said he has an enlarged bladder, he has to go back tomorrow to be checked again (theres no blockage). I am also wondering if I can express his bladder, I have been searching on the net to see if there is any info, but I...

thanks very much ginny and your kind words. It is worrying and I can help but think of bad outcomes! I have to try to think positive. It's difficult as I don't know if he is going to the toilet as the morning and evening are both dark when he goes out. he seems very happy in himself though...

Hi, I took my cat to the vets and he had to stay overnight so they could monitor him in the litter tray. Apparantly he only done very tiny amount of urine. They took blood test and urine test which all have come back clear with no problems. Then they took an xray, this showed he had a very...

thanks, I will get some of that enzyme stuff. I have also bought a duvet protector and I think I will put an extra cover on just for when we are out. I'm glad they can get the urine sample so easily. I had visions of me chasing him around the garden for a sample!

thanks for replying. i have made an appointment at the vet to have a health check. I wonder how can they check it? will they need a sample or something. it does sound like maybe he could bladder prob. poor thing smelt a bit of pee todayl, otherwise he does look fit and healthy. thanks, koolkat

Hi, just wondering if anyone has any advice on my cat, he is 9 yrs old and neutered, but lately i have noticed he has been peeing on the bed. I saw him wash himself then do it, but l also think it happens at night could even be when he's asleep? We have other cats so at first i thought it...

Hi Not sure if anyone can help, but my resident cat (aged 8) and my new kitten (8 weeks) have been playing and he even gave kitten a wash today, which was cute. But sometimes when playing or when passing he will clench his moth around the back of her neck and just hold it. She meows but she...

Thanks for that. ,y partner wondered if the boys would have been the same but I'm sure the sex doesn't make any difference - just nerves. She actaully walked intothe lounge today on her own and looked a bit more confident and walked up to our resident cat who still does not know what to do with...
