Hi there
,
Just a quick note saying hello. I have been using this site lately to determine and researching our cat's problem. He is at the vet right now recovering from having a crystal blockage removed. He had the catheter and I.V. for 3 days and he gets to come home tommorrow!
We are so happy, my Wife and I, we have been a couple of basketcases since he went in. A little bit about him, his name is Junior he is male & he is 3 years old. His Mom was run over by a car 2 weeks after she gave birth. So my Wife and her Mom raised the kittens, hand feeding them, making them go to the washroom and keeping them clean. We are really attached to him and we would be lost without him. We caught the blockage early and we hope he doesn't ever have to go through this ever again. This is a great site and I'm really happy I found it, lots of great information and from the posts that I have read there are lots of friendly and informative people here. Here are a couple of pics of Junior, sorry about the quality but they are scanned photos.

lol. I'll let you all know how he does when we get him home, which is in about 9 hours and counting.
It went in real easy with no signs of crystals or mucus. They left it and drained his bladder, they emptied more I.V. solution that was still in his bladder. They are now going to take the catheter out and give him some anti-spasmatic medication to see if that will relax his muscles enough for him to pee on his own. We will have to spend the day and watch him very closely thats okay cause it will be nice to have the little guy home again. I'll keep you posted.
