Hi there,
In January this year, my oldest feline, Lewis (15) went outdoors as usual, however when he came back he was behaving very oddly. He became very sick and was trying to go toilet, but nothing was happening for him. After a trip to the vets, they deduced he had a blocked urinary tract, and suggested changing his dry food, giving him more wet food, as well as prescribing medications.
Three days and a bill of £1500+ later, Lewis was put to sleep.
We had three cats. Lewis, Bella, who is 6, and Peanut who is 3.
Bella and Peanut are still with us.
However, today, Peanut came home after being outside and is showing all the same symptoms as Lewis! We changed food brands after what happened with Lewis, so surely it can't be that? Honestly we are so upset and frightened that another of our cats is going to be put down. The cats always have a good supply of water, too.
The thought has crossed our mind that someone somewhere nearby might be trying to hard our pets with some sort of edible.
Thing is we can't take him to the vets as we still owe them for Lewis, and haven't paid it all off.
We just don't know what to do, or why this is happening again.
Any advice/thoughts would be really really appreciated.
