She finished all four boxes of Clavamox but and Peed. Now she keeps getting in the pan trying to pee. I dont think the infection is gone. The vet is at 12:40 today. Last time she had this it took 2.5 months to get rid of.

Please, talk to your vet about two things:
1. As this may not be the correct antibiotic for Coco's infection, to do a culture and sensitivity test to find the correct antibiotic for the infection.
2. Many vets insist on a urinalysis one or two days after medication (antibiotic) is finished to make sure a bacterial infection is indeed gone. If your vet didn's suggest doing one, please talk to him/her about doing one.

One other thing comes to mind. Perhaps what you're seeing now is caused by inflammation. If that's the case, a short course of antiinflammatory medication can bring Coco much needed relief. (Sorry, I don't know what you're feeding, so I'd just like to add that if Coco is having all these problems, a diet change may be necessary to reduce the chance of more infections and inflammation.)

Sending best wishes and healing vibes for Coco.

Thanks,
They did that test to see what Antibiotic would work. It came out Clavamox. We always wait 2 Days afer the Med is gone to get her rechecked. She has been on C/D for a year since her last infection which was Ecoli. That one took 2.5 Months to get rid of. I am asking about another med because Coco gets sick from Clavamox and barfs. I had to feed her Natures Best to get her to eat. Now that the med is out she eats the C/D. She had a Ultra Sound too and her Bladder is thick. Last year she had Bladder Stones and had SD and they went away.
