My Poor little no tail kitty is not feeling great.

She has a urinary infection.  We went to the vet. We have antibiotics.  It will eventually be ok.  But...

My kitty is in pain and she can't pee. (Or perhaps doesn't want to pee because it hurts). 

Is there anything I can do? 

She's got a good pathetic kitty act going. 

She's interested in food, but doesn't eat much, I suspect because she doesn't want to fill herself more which leads to having to sit in the litterbox looking frustrated.  If she sits there long enough she can get a few drops out. but she's just miserable.

Poor kitty! You vet can give you painkillers. I would ask!

How long ago did you start the antibiotics?

Yes. They should have given pain medication to help your poor girl be comfortable. Call your vet and explain her behavior. They may do an anti-inflammatory as well. Poor girl!

I'm slow about responding.

She was miserable for a night, but when breakfast came around she was up and ready to eat.  Still uncomfortable, but better.

Now that she's feeling better getting her pill into her is an adventure.

But We think the antibiotics give her stomach troubles. She's been vomiting foam. We tried to give her some probiotics since that helped last time she had the issue.  But she didn't want to eat dinner tonight.  We're off to get an eye dropper so we can mix the probiotics with water and get some into her, hopefully we can get her to just drink it, but I want to make sure she gets some..  Hopefully she can feel better in time for before bed snack time. And if not I get to call the vet in the morning.
