Hi all,
So around the end of May, the cleanest cat in the world starting peeing every-f***-where. We took him to the vet, and sure enough, he had struvites. He had a shot of convenia, then some anti-inflammatory medication. We came home with the c/d urinary Hills prescription diet, and he adjusted to it just fine. We dumped water on it and he drank it until he got to the food.
After one month, we switched him back to his regular food (because we were told it was fine by the technician, the vet being on vacation). Two weeks later, he's peeing drops all over the house, worse than before.
Our vet being still out of town, we went to another clinic. Again, struvites and blood in the urine. Another shot of convenia, anti-inflammatory pills and that muscle relaxer they give (anti-spasmodic I think?). He peed himself that night. Then on the floor of the bathroom. We just locked him there, but he is strong and banged on the door ALL NIGHT, so it is not ideal.
The next day we washed him, and let him go free. He still strains to pee, but we were guessing the anti-spasmodic and anti-inflammatory mix would stop any damage from said straining. Now it's day 5 and last day of medication, and he still strains. Like, I can see him contract and long streams do go out when he does, but I know it's not ideal. I'm just not sure whether it's normal? Also he starts peeing in the litter box and migrates to the floor and then the hallway. If we close the door, he sometimes sits in his pee, then meows because he is obviously miserable. At least he isn't peeing in corners like before the vet, but I'm still worried because I have limited funds but I want him to be good, so this whole damned thing is stressing me out.
Naturally, he is back on c/d urinary and water. He's turning three soon.
Please help T_T
