    I Just Need To Vent

    Interesting, my cats are also big fans of dry food. I won’t lie, my two have had some gastrointestinal issues since I upped their wet food and while they still happily eat the few biscuits I put down every other day, they are very picky with their wet food. But I know that dry food is like human...

    Amazing that his problem basically disappeared once he was on wet food! Can I ask a question? I’ve read that fish flavoured wet food can cause UTIs, kidney damage, hyperthyroidism and all sorts of problems. In your experience is this accurate? Because Apollo loves anything fish flavoured but...

    I thought it was just as common in males and females, but males have a narrower urethra, thus at greater risk of blockage. But I could be wrong, with so much information out there I’m confused, I must admit! Apollo had his urine extracted directly from his bladder and an ultrasound during a...

    I’m so sorry for your loss. :hugs: You didn’t save them in the end, but you really tried -and that’s all that matters. Your little angels were lucky to share their life with you. Your experience has given me a lot to think about, so thank you for sharing. :heartshape:

    Thanks for sharing your experience! Part of me feels we shouldn’t have to do the research ourselves, vets should be better trained and more responsible; it’s quite sad when you think about it. But your cats are lucky to have you looking after them. :) What a beautiful cat! She will be one of...

    Thank you! :blush: Overall, he doesn’t appear to have issues with constipation. Sure, sometimes he might “miss a day” but he is fairly regular 90% of the time, he even goes around the same time every day! But you’re right, all those meds we gave him for his cystitis flare-up might have actually...

    I already have him on Cystease supplement. Do you think Uromaxx is better? I might give it a go, thanks for the suggestion. I live in Scotland and there’s a Feline Clinic in the veterinary school in the university of Edinburgh, I looked it up and it turns out my regular vet can make a...

    Unfortunately I haven’t found a vet I truly, completely trust. I don’t know if it’s because Apollo’s condition, idiopathic cystitis, and the fact that it is not completely understood, so vets have no choice but to take shots in the dark and hope for the best. Fingers crossed for your cat...

    1000% worth it, what a majestic, stunning boy!! :heartshape: That’s a nice way of putting it, thank you! Good to know! I’m Greek, so we’re never short of olive oil in my house! :D

    I Just Need To Vent

    Thank you for saying that. Wow, I never thought of it this way… You’re right, that’s definitely a possibility. I guess I wrongly assume that every pet owner has made the same choices as me, I took a good pet insurance when they were weeks old and take them to the vet at the first sign of...
