I could never get a sample before, so i don’t know. Considering antibiotics cleared it up the first time, I would assume I was “just” an infection. They’d rather a sample be brought in, rather than doing a bladder tap. I’ve got him holed up in the bathroom with packing peanuts for a sample attempt. He didn’t eat much of his food, and he’s just laying around in the bathtub, not over interested in many things. I went in to go to the bathroom, and he picked his head up to look at me, then plopped back down. I don’t think he feels very well, on top of being stuck in the bathroom. He’d normally be putting up a fit and trying to claw out, but he’s just sitting in the tub.
So far no pee, either. Not sure if he’s just being stubourn, or what. I felt his tummy, and either his bladder or his stomach is full. Which ever one is up between the back ribs. Vet is in an hour and half, so hopefully I’ll get something by then!
Better safe than sorry, for sure! I’d rather know than not! And if it makes you feel any better, I can’t ever get my cat to drink 😉
