My Poor Prince

Tweet

Have you ever had a cat pee on your bed when they've never done something like that before? Sure sometimes it might be because you ticked them off for some reason, but it could also be a sign of a medical problem. I noticed he was drinking a lot more water and of course he was still using the litter box too but it was a massive amount of liquid. So I took him to the vet and he has a massive Bladder infection. They also checked his Glucose levels as that can also be a sign of Diabetes. He had blood in his urine and his sugar level was high. She gave me an antimicrobial liquid (antibiotic) to give him for 10 days. She did want me to bring him in this morning for another glucose test but I told her that since giving him the med, his water drinking has decreased and so has the litter box visits. At the end of 10 days I will take Prince back for a glucose test just to make sure that he doesn't have the Diabetes too. If he does, I don't know what I'll do as the cost for Insulin isn't cheap. Plus the fact that an animal can go blind if Diabetes isn't corrected quickly.
