the men who won the title for being the 'fastest' clapper? in the world, quite cool.

sometimes you thought you have done enough
but to find out later no matter how much prevention you have done, it might still happen.
I was woken up by my mum's angry screaming today as she thought Muffie being extremely naughty by refusing to come out of the kitty litter...
I was alarmed as soon as I heard all the information from what I could collect bits and pieces from her over-the-top hysteric complaints about how much she does for me and Muffie and how she kept pushing him out of the kitty litter but he kept on going back....
Persians especially male neutered Persians are very prone to UTI and when it is left untreated, can cause many serious life threatening cases....
So I cleaned up his litter and stay with him the whole day, Poor Muffie was quite stressful, didn't do his favourite nap, walking around, kept going back to the toilet only to pass small amounts of urine. I tried to get him to drink water but he would just sniff then walk away.
I kept on calling all the vets in the hope one of them would open on Sundays but the only one I could found was the animal emergencies at Mt Waverley and it was charging $150 minimum. I was tossing all arvo if I should wait until tomorrow to take him to the cat clinic where he usually gets checked or get to the emergencies asap but they have no idea of his past history... Later in the arvo Muffie followed me to my room and slept for a few hours peacefully for the first time today, I then thought he might be alright since he stopped visiting the litter every 5 minutes, so I also went to work for a while.
By the time I got back home, mum told me Muffie has been going to the litter again while crying in pain. To my astonishment I saw his urine has blood in it, I had to rush him to the emergencies... it was extremely worrying. The emergency hospital is probably the most unpleasant vet there is as all animals went are seriously ill and require immediate attention.
I had to fight back my tears alot seeing poor pets in pain, Muffie was so restless and miawing non-stop. so I had to sit next to him and kept on patting him to make him feel a bit more secured.
After about 1.5hr of waiting, the vet finally checked him and obviously he has FLUTD (which is like humans' UTI) the good thing is because he could still pass urine so this means the crystals (if there is any) has not blocked his urethra.... she didn't want to give him any treatment other than one injection to relieve his pain as Muffie hasn't been eating so no point... (I hate this because pets unlike humans know sometimes it is necessary to eat bitter medicine or forcing oneself to drink alot of water so we can get better, he just doesn't want to eat or drink because he feel sick and I can't even make him!)
I have to wait until tomorrow and take him to the Cat Clinic and do a thoroughly check up.
At least I know Muffie's conditions is not critical and hopefully the injection has made him felt better....
I was thinking what I would do if Muffie was seriously ill, I felt so bad that I was out late Friday and yesterday.... there was so much "i should have" but really I could not really prevent this from happening as Persians male cats are more prone to get it more than any others... I tried to give him the best cat food, regular check ups, making sure plenty fresh water around... Still he got it at the age of 3!! I suppose I should have changed the kitty litter much more often... my poor darling I was bashing myself the whole day...
I know how painful FLUTD can be, and I wish I could have taken the pain for him... I wish him be better as soon as possible... he is like my baby and I don't want him to suffer from anything. xoxox
