Hello. If I'm doing this wrong, please tell me. I'm new here. Also, please forgive me as my English isn't good. 
My 3-year old cat started to expressed pain in peeing last Saturday (3/28) but then we ignored it since he's still doing fine and active. The following day, my mother told me that he is sick, we asked our vet for help but he said that he will check him the next day. He didn't have clinic on Sunday. By this time, I felt a big lump in his stomach. I told this to my mother and we looked for an open clinic but found none. We decided to wait for Monday.
Monday, our vet told us to go to the nearest clinic and we did. The vet (another one) said that his case is enlargement of bladder and needs catheter to remove the liquids. She gave us liverolin, antibacterial, rowatinex, RC recovery food, and Inner aid, for him to drink with water. We were also asked to buy Feline C/D but the thing is, we couldn't find one (I'm from the Philippines and living in province)! Our attending vet doesn't have one in hand so we were asked to look for other pet shops. We tried but we didn't found one. We asked help from my grandmother living in the US to find one which they did but they didn't have the doctor's receipt and ended up buying nothing. They did buy the prevention ones but I don't know if it will work. I took one of it and allowed my cat to sniff it but he walked backwards, so I assumed that he's appetite isn't returning. I decided not to find C/D first and stick with RC.
On Wednesday, he's showing big improvement. He also started to do bowel movement. I was really happy. But, he then started to drink the water without medication (for dehydration) but my father said that its okay since he's still drinking. But last night (Thursday 4/3), he started squatting again, like he wanted to pee. I checked his catheter if there's was some blockage from soil (he went outside to bowel) but nothing. I decided to syringe him with the recommended water but he didn't like it. I went to the dropper and it worked. I checked again but he's still doing it. I checked again Friday early morning (2AM) and I think his pee is only by drops, not like last days. I gave him water again. Today, (4/3 7AM) he's still doing the same, the catheter too.
We have holidays (Maundy Thursday & Good Friday) so the clinic isn't open. Our next appointment will be tomorrow. I couldn't contact the vet to ask her things. I don't know what to do. I also told this to my mom, if ever the worst is to come. Is this situation normal? Is this because of the water without medicine? Is this because he went outside and did bowel on the soil? Is it because we didn't buy the C/D and stick to RC?
Or maybe, it was too late that I need to prepare myself for the worst?
Please help me and my cat. Thank you so much.
