🐈 Why You Should Watch Your Cat Pee - Feline Idiopathic Cystitis [Urinary Issues]

[@roseannascotti3511]

You know something I've been dealing with cats and knowing a lot about them for like 58 years so I'm right there with you

[@chadthayer2273]

You told me more in 36 minutes the most vets have

[@WithFrankie]

This makes me very happy! ☺️ Thank you!

[@geegeeh.6118]

Thank you for the information. The gabapentin is so stressful to administer. Thank you for letting people know that there’s a possibility to get scream version.

[@WithFrankie]

Thank YOU for watching! It's crazy that it took so long for my vets to tell me about it! They must have liked to watch me lose my hair over trying to medicate my cats the OG way. 😆

My sweet 2 year old boy just spent 3 nights in vet hospital on an IV with a cath and he was dripping some blood and leaving pee spots in the first hours after he got home but now nothing. He goes to litter and gets nothing out. Hes refusing any food at all including the special food the vet gave me for urinary issues. Hes not drinking even though we have a fountain. All vet gave was antibiotics and Iv fluid. I make 30k q year and am single so you can imagine how many more 1000 dollar vet visits I can afford. I love him so much. I am afraid I am going to lose him.

[@WithFrankie]

I understand your fear and my heart hurts for you. 💔 You should DEFINITELY call the vet IMMEDIATELY and get him back in. No water drinking & no peeing is very very bad. 😢

[@ClaireGreen-wd2gm]

@@WithFrankie He started drinkin water but stopped leaking pee now and cant pee again and still wont eat. I took my vacation days I fortunately had saved and am taking him back. Im also going to ask if vet thinks he will end up needing surgery because by time I drain my savings having a cath put in multiple times I wont have the money for the surgery. I appreciate your video and that you replied. Its so sad something like this costs so much as most people would be priced out of being able to even try and help their cat

[@roseannascotti3511]

You know Frankie I didn't become a vet because of my sensitivity the things I might see coming into that office

[@WithFrankie]

I can't imagine. I used to want to be a vet (I grew up on a farm) and was very interested in animal medicine at a young age but now I understand why that didn't work out for me. I would not have handled it well. I think my place is in small batch cat rescue. You are very strong.

Hi my cat have blocked and did not pee for 2 days. Made a home remedy treatment and later on he peed blood for 2 days and later its all cleared but still he goes in and out in his litterbox . And now i see it again peeing blood. Can u help me

[@WithFrankie]

I think you should take him to the vet. It might be a blockage that he's struggling to pass. Or it might be something else. It's best to find out, for his sake AND yours.

[@BashirAhmad-wg5nz]

I'm from Pakistan. My cat is peeing in drops after catheter removal. Our area doctors are not advanced that much to diagnose the disease. For them it is just UTI . What should I do?

[@WithFrankie]

How is your cat?

[@BashirAhmad-wg5nz]

He is still in same condition and after ultrasound a doctor said that it is just cristals in his bladder

[@WithFrankie]

Crystals in the bladder that blocks his urine can kill him. My vets take crystals seriously since that's what causes the blockages. I really wish they'd be more serious with your kitty. 😟

[@BashirAhmad-wg5nz]

@@WithFrankie we are regularly giving medicine and his condition is now a little bit better. He is eating properly and fighting with other cats today.

[@WithFrankie]

@BashirAhmad-wg5nz that's such great news!

[@丁大妞]

Very good but a bit long

[@WithFrankie]

Thanks. It kinda had to be, to be as comprehensive as I wanted, as it's a very important topic imo and I wanted to communicate all of the information I had. Thanks for watching! 🙂
