He isn't a big fan of wet food though. He prefers to just lick it rather than est any of the chunks (which results in me throwing out the rest!) So I fear just switching to the wet will result in him not eating enough.

Thank you for the links! My biggest concern is that he's done so well on the c/d. He's had 3 blockages and since he's been on the c/d since May 2015 and has been in stressful situations and has not blocked. He also has Trazadone too for stressful situations.

He is 6.5 years and a bigger cat. Pur family jokes that he's fat, but he's 18lbs, and the vet said she wouldn't consider him onese or fat, but he's a "big guy"! (He's an American Short Hair). Currently he's on science diet c/d to prevent urinary crystals. But I blame myself now because we would...

Glenn was just diagnosed with diabetes :( It's only been a week, and his follow up is tomorrow to see how he's been doing with insulin twice a day. I wanted to know if anyone has any advise, tips, stories, etc. from their own experiences! I'm hoping we caught it early he will go into remission...

My cat is a noisy breather too! Sometimes it sounds like he's snoring. We've mentioned it to the vet and they weren't concerned. His lungs sound normal. His first vet guessed it's like a deviated septum! Obviously if it sounds concerning or worsens, or even acts up after specific activities...

Just an update, Glenn has diabetes. They're running a full blood panel to rule anything else out, but at least we have an answer!

Hi everyone! I'm Kristen, life long Masshole living in Rhode Island and still working in Mass! My fiancée and I are a blended family with our two furbabies: Glenn is my 6.5 year old american short hair gray and white cat, who has quite the history with how he ended up being mine; Holly is my...

Hello all! I unfortunately only come on here when something is up with my booger, but it really helps to know I'm not alone and hear recommendations and thoughts from others who may have a similar experience! Glenn has been thriving on his C/D food for his urinary blockages and adapting well...

She's adorable! I would definitely talk to the vet about some sort of anxiety medication or a sedative. My cat is a scardy cat too (not as anxious as yours!), but we moved last week while he was healing from a urinary blockage and the vet prescribed trazadone for the hour ride and other...

So far so good! I thought he was blocking again last night but I think he just felt the urge to pre with the inflammation and had no urine to pass. He has peed a lot since late last night though! The vet refilled his meds so he will stay on them a little longer to be 100% healed :) and no blood...

So I spoke with the ER he went to, they are extending the time he is on the medication because they believe he is just inflamed. That's what they did before when this happened, so hopefully another week or so of the meds will help! I feel so bad because he is limited to the bedroom and living...

Hello! I have been coming on here for the last 2 weeks to ease my mind about my cats recent blockage. Thankfully he's been doing well...up until this past weekend, and I cannot find any other posts regarding this exact situation. My 5 year old male cat Glenn had two urinary blockages in 2015...
