That's kind of why I maybe wasn't successful when I was trying to palpate his bladder. Everything online said "it should feel hard, like an orange/grapefruit" (when it was indeed full, as confirmed by my vet later), and sounded easy, but I could feel no such thing, and meanwhile I was distressing Willy in my attempt.I don’t palpate my cats at home and I do know how to do it. I don’t want to be doing hospital things for them at home if I can help it.
So my palpations always turned into reassuring petting.
