Does anyone have any experience with this? My cat has been struggling in the box, not straining just producing tiny amounts of urine at a time and going frequently. We've taken him to the vet and they checked for crystals (none) and for bacteria (slightly elevated and so they gave him an antibiotic). It's been five days since his visit and he's not really any better, so now I'm wondering if it might be a different kind of infection. Before I take him back to the vet though (he hates it so much and gets so stressed) I wanted to ask if anyone is familiar with non-crystal, non-bacterial urinary problems in male cats. Are there any symptoms of a yeast infection that I could look for at home? He is eating and drinking and otherwise acting normal, just urinating in small amounts and yowling when he leaves the box unless he's on a dose of painkiller (also given by the vet). He also grooms himself immediately after he leaves the box--I think it's possible he may have irritation that he's not allowing to heal.
Basically I'd just like to know if there's anything I can look for at home to narrow down the possibilities or maybe do something to help before we have another vet visit. Thanks!
