HI Everyone - I am new here and desperate to help my girl.
Tempi was spayed March 11th and within 3 weeks of her spay someone had started peeing outside the litterbox. I was unsure who so I started to separate the suspects one at a time but found it wasn't them. Then I caught Tempi in the act. We took her in for a UA in house, started her on Clavamox due to finding bacteria in the in house culture. Just a month later we are back again for another UA which was set off and it was negative for bacteria. Just a few days later we were back and ran another in house culture but again no bacteria but there was blood in her urine. She was given a diagnosis of Idiopathic cystitis, given Buperex and Phenoxybenzamine - she is using the box again but only going every 3 days (seriously almost predictable now). Due to the Idiopathic Cystitis dx, she was also given Gabapentin to be given daily forever. She has been so dopey on the Bupernex and Phenoxybenzamine that she has wore a lot of her raw. Her face is just yuck no matter how much I wash it. She simply needs a bath to really be able to clean it up. She is only urinating every 3 days and I am thinking a cat on a raw diet, this just cannot be normal. Thankfully she is using her litter box but still I have her caged so I can watch her amount of output. Does anyone have any thoughts? She didn't have any issues at all until AFTER she was spayed...which I find odd.
I am taking her for a second opinion this week...but open for any other ideas or thoughts on this.
Thank you in advance!
