My cat just got back from the vet. This is his second blockage with crystals. He had a catheter in for a full day. He just came back from the vet and they close on weekends so I cant call them. It seems like he is leaking pee and some blood. Is this normal after having a catheter? its literally just leaking from him when he walks or sits, it doesn't seem voluntary at all. Has this happened to anyone?

From what I understand, though, from other posts, it's pretty common for them to "leak".  Here's a thread where at least a couple of cats went thru it:  http://www.thecatsite.com/t/286961/kitty-leaking-urine-after-bladder-surgery-and-catheterization  It should get better after awhile, but I would definitely discuss the bleeding with my Vet

We went through this a few weeks ago with our Pumpkin.  He did leak after being cath'ed (blood and urine) for a couple of days,  however you need to REALLY watch that he is urinating, eating and drinking normally.  If you see anything that bothers you please do not hesitate returning to your vet or at least calling to talk to them.  Good luck to you and your kitty, please keep us updated as to how he is.

So far no problems other then the leaking everywhere. Was anyone elses this bad? He cant seem to do anything without peeing, its actually pretty sad. The vet says its probably due to the stretching and he will cal me back in a couple of days. =c poor kitty.
