    What are you feeding your post PU surgery cat?

    My Romeo had PU surgery last June after repeatedly getting crystals in his urine. The surgery seems to be successful but I'm having problems feeding him and my other 10 cats.

    PU Surgery Recovery

    The incision looks pretty good to me. When my cat had PU Surgery done I was constantly on edge and got myself into panic mode on numerous occasions. He had it done back in November and if I remember correctly, he leaked wee for almost three weeks and my vet said that was normal. He’s all good...

    5 yr old male cat dribbling urine after PU surgery

    Does anyone have experience with their male cat dribbling urine after PU surgery? He’s a sweet, but difficult cat and his recovery was longer than expected, because he kept licking the incision.

    Post PU Surgery Worries

    Hi. A PU surgery is a big deal. It is expensive and a difficult surgery to do. Part of what you pay for in the surgery is also the aftercare. Please keep in constant contact with your vet. I promise you, you are not bothering them. If your cat hasn’t had a bowel movement, you need to let the vet...
