My 5-year-old baby is at the ER with a urethral blockage. He threw up yesterday at 8 AM and we saw pieces of a cut rubber band in his vomit so we thought it was a stomach issue. Took him to the vet for X ray and then the ultrasound at 7PM showed a huge bladder. His bladder was expressed with mucus and crystal. The vet sent him home anyway thinking it might be stress-induced. He did not get better overnight so he was checked back into the ER this AM.

Sending you all hugs.

I’ve had two boys that had urinary blockage issues, I know it’s stressful.

OP I am so sorry to hear this and I am definitely praying for you. My friend had a similar issue recently when her cat ate one of her ear plugs and had a blockage. They had to do surgery to remove it. I hope that your kitty gets to feeling better asap and you are able to bring him home. Sending all the good vibes.

Update: he’s checked into the hospital. They’re going to catheterize him. They don’t think it’s a neurological issue and also don’t think PU surgery is the right path for now. They don’t consider this a second episode, but rather that he was released too early from the ER and it’s a continuation of the first episode of blockage.

Update: we are going to an animal hospital. Our vet looked at him and things are not looking good. His bladder is huge and he was not able to express any urine. He thinks it might be either a neurological lesion causing this, or another blockage… also confused why the ER thought he was good to go home when he clearly was not

Sorry to hear. Sounds like he’ll be in good hands

So I just moved states. I’m staying with a parent for a while in a pretty large house and my cat keeps hiding for hours on end (I think to snooze). Any thoughts? She’s spent time with me and I walked around with her while she explores. And she’s ventured solo. Seemed she’s warming up well. Except this again. I admit it’s giving me horrible anxiety that she won’t respond at all until I locate her because even I’m learning where things are and want her to be safe. This is the third time 😭
