Hello friends,
Our female Maya is 18. For about a week we've been seeing red patches in her pee. Yesterday morning I found her on the floor meowing hard, dragging herself and not able to stand on her feet. We took her to the vet and they sent us home with some sedatives. They said it doesn't look like she had a stroke and that all her limbs are moving fine. They told us to hydrate her and see how she does over a couple of days. Today she looks a bit better. She got up on her feet, wobbled around for a bit and had a pee. The pee again had red in it (almost looks like red sand sprinkled in it). She is still not stable, hasn't been drinking or eating, and keeps tucking away to her dark place out of sight.
Have any of you folks seen this kind of issue in your kitty (bloody pee, painful meowing, not being able to get up off the floor)? Do you have any clues what might be going on with her? What can we do to help her get better (like any medication and/or supplements)? Any advice on how to help her to eat and drink something? What should we expect going forward?
Thanks in advance. Any help would be much appreciated!
