The love of my life just got rushed to the hospital for sever depression and vomiting (only symptoms that he was not well). He vomited on me in the middle of the night and we got up hadn't seen anything thing else so we left for a couple hours and when we got back he was so lethargic he wouldn't move so I took him in. Immodestly he said his bladed was the size of a grapefruit, which he said was huge. He said normally the size of a hard peach or small apple. He said at that big with no urine output he is likely toxic and his kidneys have **** down and that's what caused the vomiting. The fact that he stopped vomiting for a few hours was a bad sign and that perhaps he was very late stages of renal failure.
He had no classic signs. No inappropriate use of the box. No straining. No frequent urination or drinking. Nothing. Just the vomiting, and in a matter of hours compete depression.
He's at the office for diagnostics - blood work to check kidneys, x-rays to check for large visible stones, and placing a urinary catheter and IV for fluid support. I'll know more about the damage to the kidneys in a couple hours.
My question... which such a sever blockage, and kidney failure, do they turn around? Is survival a likeliness? I'll die if he goes. I love this cat so much. I've raised him from a baby at 8 days old, lost all his siblings. He is so special to me.
Any input is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
