RE: Cat Mom Diary #05 | Things have gotten worse. Treating Osiris for Urinary Blockage.

in Hive Pets2 years ago

Luckily Chad did not have to have a catheter and I do think that it is normal for hm to go to his toilet- afterall, its also muscle memory and natural instinct for him to do so- just like us.

I just find it a bit strange that for such a young cat he already has crystal in his urine...and from food....Chad was about 14 when we spotted his issues.

Yes and you are absolutely correct about the poor stray cats that suffer through malnourishment, mistreatment, constant fear, hunger, loneliness, disease and die alone...😭

How is our little man doing today anyway?

I've been contemplating as well how I and Osiris got here. I think and feel though it was the food. We were changing cat food for the past months looking for the right fit for him. I used to mix his dry food with water to soften it up but a long the way, he started to prefer eating just the dry food. So that's one too. The vet did mentioned though that some cat food does promote the crystal formation. I was just unaware back then. If I knew, I would have just stick to 1 or 2 brands of cat food. 😓 but what's is done is done. We are moving forward.

He's back to his old self - moody, sometimes grumpy but wants non-stop cuddles during waking hour! So we can say he is doing better. 😂

I hope he continues on the path to healing 100%!
