This is my first visit here so bear with me.
Frankie,my 18 month-old black siamese cross was hit by a car 4 days ago. He has been with the vet ever since.
We know that he has a fracture of the pelvis and an injury to his tail. The concern at the moment is that he has nerve damage because he isn't passing urine on his own. He has a catheter inserted and, although his pee was very bloody yesterday, it is clearer today. The vet gave him valium yesterday to relax the bladder. He has also produced a small motion this overnight or this morning without any intervention from the vet. He is eating and drinking normally.
Of course, the vet is being very cautious and, this being a bank holiday weekend, I have had to consult with them by phone.
I love this cat so much. The waiting is driving me mad. Has anyone had a similar experience and what was the outcome? Thanks.
