Thanks guys!


The only thing I`m not looking forward too is getting his wee sample in 6 days. I know it will be a nightmare. When I keep him indoors he just holds it in


Anyhoo, he must be feeling lots better coz we had a bit of a play last night and he woke me up at silly o'clock because he was half way out of the cat flap yelling at another cat.

i know that one! tabitha thinks that 4am is a fantastic time to ask to go out. and she's asks to go out by standing on her hind legs and banging on the cabinet in our bedroom! she won't stop until i get up and let her out.

I am so glad to come to this late and get to hear your big beautiful boy is home and doing well.


I just love his gorgeous face. Such a good boy too to take his meds like treats.

You know he has to be just naughty enough to let you know he is feeling better.

Glad he is doing well!

I have a suggestion with the pee samlpe... if you have no luck collecting the urine try bring him in 2 hours before the appointment and fill him to the brim with lots of wet food. When you take him to the vet, they can manually squeeze the bladder until the urine comes out. Cody did this when I took him to the vet because I thought he was blocked... the vet was palpating Cody's bladder (vet was trying to get cody to pee, to see if he really was blocked) then all of a sudden there was a puddle of pee! Might want to call and ask though.

Just a thought, incase you can't get it any other way.

Thanks for that!
The vet thinks he got a UTI from being stressed about going in for his booster last friday, so he doesn`t want me to take him in if we can help it. But I will defo give him plenty of wet and he likes to drink out of a big glass beer tankard
so I`m going to leave that and a few other bowls of water around and hope he drinks lots.

Kitty sounds like hes so full of personality

Im so glad he is doing better now.

My kitties will only drink out of glasses and nothing else, so I make sure that they get cold distilled water everyday. They seem to drink more when its cold, Im not sure why. I also always add water to their wet to make sure they are getting enough. Just some ideas for you.
