I have two male cats - litter mates, 4.5 years old. Zoobie had a serious urinary blockage 4 months ago (vet said he would have died had I waited even 12 hours to take him in). Long story short... 5-day hospital stay, catheterization, weeks of medication, multiple cat food trials. He's eating Royal Canin S/O (in the green bag).
Both cats liked to be rubbed on their bellies. Tonight, because he let me, I felt Zoobie's lower abdomen. There was a hard lump, maybe lime-sized. I assuming this is his bladder? Does this sound like the right size? I felt the same area on Gonzo, where I felt no lump, just soft normal belly. If anything, the litter boxes look like there has been more urination than usual... no spots of urine anywhere else. Zoobie seems slightly agitated and has been very aggressive toward Gonzo the last few days... sometimes he won't allow Gonzo to be near me.
Am I being a vicarious hypochondriac??... thanks for any input
