As some of you know my kitty Jack went to the vet Tuesday and was diagnosed with a UTI and they also saw crystals in his urine. They gave him an antibiotic shot (Convenia) that is supposed to last 2-3 weeks. I was just wondering when I should start to see an improvement in Jack? He still seems to be making frequent trips to the litter box and is passing small amounts of urine. Thanks!

Hmmm...I would say any day now, definitely by the end of the weekend. If you don't see an improvement by then, I'd call the vet on Monday morning. However, since they gave him a Covenia injection, I'm not sure that they can give him another antibiotic on top of that. The Covenia takes about 2-3 weeks to run its course in the body.
