Ever wish you could speak cat? Man I wish I could right now. Lucy has had a urinary tract infection( I know.. sounds pleasant). So, I have had her to the vet twice so far. The first time I was able to get some pee to take in for them to run test, because she was a nonstop peeing machine. The second time the vet told me that they would get it and I didn’t need to worry about it. Little did I know this meant using a needle to take it out of her bladder through her stomack. Man, it was a pretty awful site. In the end they couldn’t get enough to do any test, but could tell it was still bloody. So, they put her on some more antibiotics and said come back in a week with some pee. That means Lucy wouldn’t even have to go. This would be a great relief, because she gets sick everytime she goes anywhere in the car. Last time it was out both ends.
So, tonight I am trying to get her to pee….sounds easy enough. For the last 4 hours or so she has been in the bathroom with a bowl of water and some cruncies, and still no pee. Shes’s doing a number on the rug under that sticks just under the door though.
You try explaining to a cat that she needs to pee in an empty kitty litter box so you can put it in a jar. I’ve discovered that neither English or German seem to work….I’m off to try in my best ‘Cat’….wish me luck!
