Cat Health

Huguenot5 asked:


My 1 year old, male tabby recently got a UTI. He was prescribed Clavamox. Within one week he could no longer urinate and at the animal hospital, crystals were found. he was catheterized and stayed in hospital for a few days. He was sent home today and he continues to take clavamox in combination with an anti-spasmoidal drug, and valium to relax him. He now eats Royal Canin Urine SO food to aid in diluting his urine and is getting increased amounts of water. However, he is still having trouble urinating.

He is now urinating a puss, and appears uite fatigued.

Does anyone know what can be done? I want to help him heal, but another trip to the animal hospital and re-catheterazation is really not something I wish to pursue.

Thanks in advance
Thanks to everyone for their help. One last question:

Could the pus be something that can be cleared by swithcing anit-biotiotics?

I know indoor cats often stop using their litter boxes.

What indicators might you see with an outdoor cat, who does his business outside? Is there any way of keeping an eye on this aspect of their health?

My cat has no history of UTIs but I never EVER see him drink and I worry. Also he’s been more vocal than usual lately and I’m not sure if it means anything.

Thanks.
He has no symptoms - there’s nothing wrong with him.

I just want to know what I should look out for.

Thanks.
