Search Results for Query: after PU surgery

Hello all, After three seperate blockages in just over a week following a bladder infection the week before, my vet recommended that my male cat, Fluffy, receive an urgent PU surgery. On Tuesday evening I brought him to the emergency animal hospital and he received his surgery yesterday and it...

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. My vet said that because he had crystals, he can never eat anything but prescription food again. I started using Hills...

Welcome to The Cat Site! PU surgery is a consistent topic here and there are numerous threads, most voicing some level of concern about follow up care or complications. Search Results for Query: PU surgery In the case of your family member's cat, your theories may be very correct, as may the...

My boy Artemis is officially 2 weeks post-OP on Monday but he still pees very tiny small amounts and gets very upset that he can't lick right after, will just keep trying to through his cone for several minutes. Is this normal? :( I know I was warned to expect this in the beginning but...

I read your story about seeing a specialist recently and I agree it makes all the difference in the world with this surgery. When my boy was in and out of the emergency hospital consistently with blockages and infections, my vet strongly recommended he have this surgery. We put it off feeling...

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. The vet is worried he’ll develop scar tissue, so I put vitamin E on it a few times. But he likes the...

Hi. Sorry to hear what Max and you are going through. Are you currently working with a vet urologist from a specialty group for long term care? Based on all you have described; Max should be under the ongoing care of one. They would have a wealth of information about issues that can arise...

I'm sorry I don't have any information that can help. I'm hoping that some of the information in these articles will help. Also I did a generic search for PU surgeries. That search has a bunch of articles you can look through. Please keep us posted...

It's alright, any help is appreciated. I have done some binging on these threads before I went through with his surgery just to get a feel of what I was going into, but it's been a lot more than I imagined. I found the information given by @Stargirl0623 very helpful, but unfortunately it doesn't...

My 4-year-old cat Max was our perfect boy. We called him our love bug. He greeted us everyday when we got home from work, he hardly left my fiance’s side, and he used to sleep with us every night. All until he had his first urinary blockage a year ago. We spent pretty much all of August 2022 in...

(Heads up for anyone squeamish, the photos attached are pretty graphic.) Hello! Almost 6 weeks ago from now, my cat had PU surgery performed for repeated blockages. The recovery process has been going okay so far, despite a minor setback of him getting his cone off when I wasn't watching and...

...have a damaged bladder? Is that correct and/or still true? Is the dribbling new or continual since the surgery? You said that Luigi is dribbling more now that the cone is off? This is one thread on the same subject which may or may not be helpful. Leaking Urine / Incontinence After Pu Surgery?

Yes, I completely agree with you. The panic of the circumstances, the stress of the emergency visits, and my greatly impacted judgement lead me to make the wrong decision. I take that fault completely, and can only promise my boy that I'll do better for him in the future. I've definitely learned...

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...

Update! The vet called with the results of his tests. His urine is good, no infections found within it. His wound culture came back with three types of bacteria, but all them are sensitive to the amoxicillin/clavamox that he's still currently on. I'm going to be picking up another week's worth...

Hi! My cat had PU surgery almost exactly one year ago (December 24, 2021) after a pretty severe blockage and trauma in that region (ending with his prepuce outside of his body because he somehow ripped his catheter and stitches out when they were trying that method of unblocking him—just to put...

Hello all, My 4yo cat Cubby had the PU surgery on Friday Nov. 11. He stayed at the vet overnight and they discharged him saying he was peeing well and all looked good, and I could continue the after-care at home. I’ve had his e-collar on and he’s been eating his prescription wet food quite well...

I agree with @Seymour about the specialist. However, you are still placing too much of the blame on yourself. It was not your job to have such a high level of expertise with PU surgeries that you would have known what was happening. That is what we pay vets and doctors for. Some vets do believe...
