My wonderful Tuxedo boy, Omar, has just been diagnosed with a urinary tract infection, and I'm so worried about him! We took him to the vet's to have his teeth cleaned, and I mentioned to Dr. Maria that he'd been using spots around the house as his litterbox a few times recently. After running some tests, she diagnosed his UTI. According to her, it's a mild one, but I'm so worried about him and feel like a horrible cat mama!
O is now on a week's worth of liquid antibiotic. He's never gone off his food or water and seems ok to me--but I did miss his illness. He's 12 years old (will be 13 in April) and was neutured at six months. Does anyone have any suggestions that will help him avoid getting sick again? I guess I'm so worried because he's never really been ill before, and he's getting up in age. He's our beloved little boy kitty. I'm selfish and want him with me forever. Thanks so much!
