Hi , I'm new to this site and just looking for some advice from cat parents.
This past Friday night I noticed my cat was acting strange. He was grumpy and sensitive and was having problems using the bathroom. I monitored him for an hour and he would lie down in weird places and even hissed at one of my sisters which he had never done in the 2 wars I've had him. I brought him to the very pricey ER vet and they said he had a urinary blockage. They've had him hooked up to a catheter and IV for ~30 hours and he will hopefully come off everything in a few hours and once he's uriniating on his own can come home.
Basically I'm worried about what comes next. I've read lots of information on potential reblockages and new food recommendations but was wondering if anyone else has been through this with their cat and has any advice.
