ANYONE have an answer for me as to WHY my cat could not urinate??? The vet really did not explain it very well she just told me that my cat was suffering from kidney failure. Does that mean her kidneys stopped working?? AND does anyone know WHY???????? I am so sad and worried because I have two other cats and they are 18 and 15 years old. Should I get their blood tested for kidney disease?? My older cat drinks a lot of water but she urinates fine. I just need to know why my Toonces(age12) became so ill so fast. My husband and I cry everyday..we miss her so much !!!! I searched the web for answers but I need it told in laymen terms. Thanks you !!!! You are all wonderful.
