$$ Hnt
So the past couple days have been pretty stressfull and hard for me..
I got a call @ work on monday from my fiance telling me that my cat wasent doing so well...
He told me the symptoms and right then and there I knew what was wrong..
He was bloked!!!
Last november he had the same problem.
When i say he is blocked I mean he cant pee, male cats most commonly get this Because the size of the urethra narrows about one inch from the end of the penis,
Once the urethra is plugged/blocked, it is an EMERGENCY. Cats may vomit or drool, refuse to eat, cry with pain, strain constantly, and have a tender and sore abdomen. Owners often believe that their cat is constipated. If the cat is not treated promptly, this disease can lead to kidney failure, ruptured bladder, cardiac (heart) arrhythmias and death. Last november when he had this i wasnt aware, His bladder almost ruptured, If i would have brought him into the vet any later i would have lost him....
I brought him into the emergency vet on monday evening, sure enough i was right, he was blocked and they had to sedate him and put a cathider in him to release some of the urine that he could'nt pass.. (this broke my heart)
I was there for a few hours and ended up bringing him home that night because they got him unblocked, he was sent home with antibiotics and pain killers....
Yesterday I had a bad feeling @ work so i decided to drive home @ lunch time and check on him...(its a good thing i did)
I came home to him lying in the same spot that he was in when i left for work, the only difference was that his head was in the water dish... Within a few hours i had him back at the vet to have him checked out...
He was blocked again, dehydrated and his kidney levels were elevated....( once again my heart was broken)
the vet basically said to me that i had to make a decision, pay to get him the help he needs or pay to put him to sleep.... I thought and thought and in my mind i know its alot of money to have him fixed but in my heart it was the right thing to do... I dont think i could ever put an animal to sleep...
Jake has been in the animal hospital for 2 days now and is doing better, He is on iv and has a cathider but today was the 1st time he ate in 3 days, hes looking more happier and is slowley coming around, With any luck I'll have him home tomorrow....
With all that being said I havent had the time to be creative for a hnt nor have i felt like it, So i just whipped something up quick...
Hope you all like it....
Happy Hnt!! ~xoxoxoxo

Awww that is so sad. You are a great momma for being willing to spend the money to help him. Most of us would not. Including me. Not for a cat. But I think you are super for doing so!
Hope he continues to get better.

Same thing happened to my Father-in-law - he was in agony until the pressure was released so I can only imagine what your cat was going through. Hope it's sorted for good now. Happy HNT.
