Fairly recently, I posted in this section about my 12 yr old male cat urinated on our favorite chair. I'm not sure if I posted what the vet had said though. Which was that he appears healthy, his lil butt was raw and sore so he sprayed something on there, advised to take him off canned food and said that the peeing was behavioral. That is not possible. This cat is 12 years without an accident, he didn't just do it to be mean one day and it was a coinsidence that he showed major discomfort and strange behavior afterwards. He didn't run any tests or anything! (my fiance took him, I was at work). For about 4 days after that appointment, Bubba was fine. But then I noticed him straining in the litter box very hard and having no results. The last 2 nights in a row he has vomitted, he pooped on the floor for the second time after he peed on the chair, which is also out of character. Last night, he showed discomfort once again and during the time surrounding the vomitting, I could see the spasms in his stomach. The only place I knew of to take him to after hours is way across town and ever since my car was vandalized last week, I don't think it could really even make the drive. I made Bubba an appointment with a different vet for this afternoon. I don't trust the first one since he so easily said that the cat peed as a behavioral problem, I'm taking him to an honest man, I know this Vet is good. So, he'll be checked out today, but does anyone have an opinions on the situation? Ideas of what may be going on with Bubba? Suggestions of things I can do that may make him be a little more comfortable until we take him? Anything will be helpful, I apolgise for the lengthy post.
