It is a pill that keeps his kidneys functioning properly. In humans, it is used to treat high blood pressure, I believe. I pet him and love him after he takes the pill, and I believe "hiding" it in a little cheese helps. he didn't seem to mind as much today. He will have to do this for the rest of his life, as the doctor said the stones might come back. The Eukanuba Multi-Stage renal food is supposed to help as well. I am currently mixing it with a little "Little Friskies" food.

I just got back from checking on him....more pee's!!! I am feeling better!! I let him out of the bathroom i had him locked in. He was excited to be out and get back to playing with his sister (the dog, JaydahHe hasnt really pooped though, gosh, hope I dont have to start worrying about that! I am glad it is the weekend and I will be able to be home with him more to keep an eye on him. Hopefully our friend will come over again tonight and give MUrphy some more meds, or hopefully my husband will be able to do it.
I think things are looking up!!!!
She is doing so well on amitriptylene and it doesn't have any side effects and is considered very safe, so she will probably just stay on it for life. Same for the cosaquen. You and Humble will get used to the nightly pill routine. Humble may not like it (Polly doesn't) but he will learn to put up with it, and he will still love you.
