Thank you! So we are not too far away after all. I will give it a try. He eats some of the RC dry, but he obviously doesn't like it, so he eats about 70-80% or the recommended portion every day. The wet is the bigger struggle. I was thinking about trying Purina wet urinary too. Lets see what...

Yes, we Europeans have to do all sorts of tricks if we want to get American merchandise. Plus it’s really expensive, so I would only do it for my cat. In this case the delivery will cost the same as the treats (for 11 packs). For myself I would perhaps pick something from the neighborhood and...

I wanted to let you know that your idea didn’t end up in a catastrophe! So about 1/4-1/3 of the pack can easily go into the gravy mashed and he is okay with it! But no more! But It’s still better than before! Now since he eats the gravy and part of the meat, we just throw away half of the...

Thank you, you are a tremendous help! I was close to giving it up! I think the delivery is resolved with parcel forwarding via Stackry.com. We only travel once a year to the US, and that is still far away, so I will try parcel forwarding. We are from Luxembourg, so official languages are both...

Thank you for your suggestion. Nothing seems to work so far. Nobody sells anything without US prescription, nobody is giving US prescription without seeing the animal. This is just very pointless as in the base case they would see completely nothing if they look at a cat with bladder stones. I...

He has 2 fountains and 6 bowls to drink from in only 3 rooms. And we are approaching the 21th day post 2nd surgery, and 53th day post 1st surgery. I really hope we never need more! :-)

Thank you, you are very nice with us! :-)

They said a week ago to watch him for 2 more weeks closely (peeing etc.) and after that within 1-2 weeks if there is absolutely no more complications he should be back to his normal-self. After that it’s really up to him. PU is famous about long recovery time (2 months) and since he had a second...

Yes, I know they are particular creatures, but he already lost 10% of his body weight in the last 2 month, 2 surgeries, 17 days hospitalization, lost of medication and GI problems... Now that all these maladies seem to end, I just want him to gain something back quickly! He is soo slim now. When...

Hmm, maybe I should! Here is a pic from the cat for the idea! Even if it doesn’t work it’s the best idea I heard in the last 2-3 days! :-) It’s one of the last pictures from back then, when I still thought he will be healthy for the next 10+ years, before this whole thing started...

He had it already couple of times, and it was luckily never too serious. The vet saw him last time after the Hill’s, there was no need for treatment. Then we stopped feeding it after couple of days, the swelling and diarrhea stopped. It can be a coincidence since he was on plenty of medications...

We tried Hill’s urinary stress wet food. He liked that one much more, but he developed some sort of allergy to it. He had diarrhea and swollen lips after 1-2 days, which only disappeared after we stopped giving Hill’s. I am not entirely sure it was because of the food or just a big coincidence...

Oh, so I hid it well enough in my first long comment. So it was a PU operation at first already, because however they tried it was impossible to put up the catheter. To be more precise, they put up a catheter, then it blocked, they put up another one, that got blocked too, then they don’t manage...

Yes, and thank you for the encouragement! I would really like to agree full heartedly, but currently it is only 80%. My other 20% says it was at least partly my fault.

Yes, the only thing I would add, don’t castrate cats too early. I mean crystals are normal to form, as I read to some extent. But if the diameter of the urethra is big enough, it just comes out. But if they are castrated too early, the penis could stay like a baby penis with tiny urethra...
