@JamieHendrickx I don't know what I would have done without the support of the people on here. It was such a comfort!!! Also, lots of interesting questions you raise. In regards to the raw diet, I actually brought this up to my veterinarian after my boy's procedure and she was very against it...

Had to share this photo of my boys being all lovey.

@tiffanybc Healing already? Great news!!! I have to tell you, to this day my little dummy avoids his water dish like the plague. So does his brother. Fresh water every morning and evening, they don't care. Running water from a dispenser, still nope. I just mix tons in with their food, as you...

@Stewball The blockages can, yes, but I gather it is far more rare! They are caused by an unbalanced pH in the cat's digestive system; crystals start to form in their bladder that aren't broken down properly. This can cause them a lot of discomfort and pain when they are trying to urinate. I...
