    Cat peeing outside the box... what is she telling us?

    Hi, We are treating our cat for UTI and early stage CRF. She has been on antibiotics for a couple of months now, and clinically she is doing well. Last time we went for a urinalysis she was bacteria-free but she is still on Clovomax. She is playful, has a strong appetite, runs around, and...

    UTI, antibiotics, and hairloss

    Thank you so much for the invaluable situation. It is good because the list references major pet centers/hospitals in my area, including the center where we are currently treating Djidji - Angel Memorial. I noticed that Dr. Douglas Bloom is referenced from Angel; I will try to get in touch with...

    UTI, antibiotics, and hairloss

    Hi mews2much, Did you get the tests results from Saturday? I hope the antibiotics are working for Coco and she beat the UTI infection. My cat's lower abdomen is very bare, I am not sure if she licked all the hair off or it just fell out. She is responding to Clavamox ok in the pill form (for...

    UTI, antibiotics, and hairloss

    Hi, My cat has been diagnosed with UTI and CRF in late May at age of ~12 (we did not get her as a kitten). We first tried the fluid Clovomax (62.5mg), and the cat got better, but every time we pulled her off antibiotics she would crash in 2-3 days. Putting her back on she feels a lot better...

    Experience with Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) in older cat

    A short update: Clinically Djidji is doing better. She is out of the basement (where she only sleeps if she is sick). We let her outside yesterday and today. She even caught a mouse (we let the poor thing go, had to fight with her). She is drinking much more water than Sunday and yesterday, and...

    Experience with Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) in older cat

    Hi, This is also what I am giving her a pill in (chicken flavored). She took one this morning as well. I hope the meds start working out for her soon. The doctor said that UTI was E.Coli related? Besides leaving water for Coco, is there anything you do to keep her better hydrated? What about...

    Experience with Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) in older cat

    I will check tomorrow what food sample they gave us. She retreated and hid in a corner of the basement room again tonight. But she did take her pill. I do hope she feels a little better and did not lose the will to stay with us. I love her dearly and would be very lost without her.

    Experience with Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) in older cat

    Hi mews2much, She is on Clavamox 62.5mg. First occurrence as late April, beginning of May. Have not had a problem with her before. I'm very afraid as she is usually very active and now she is just resting in the basement (finished cozy part). I hope its just because of her fever and feeling...

    Experience with Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) in older cat

    Hi, My 11-13 year old Maine Coon cat developed a urinary tract infection (UTI) last month. We took her to the vet who did a blood exam and urinalysis, and told us that the cat had UTI and reduced kidney function. She prescribed two week dose of amoxicillin (antibiotics) in the liquid form. We...
