Thank you for your post, hon..I have checked with the vet about payment plans or a lower cost for my Neko. She knows he was a rescue and from her humane society. It's still a (no-go), being said that it's my responsibility. I've found a way of getting the money and getting the appointment scheduled soon. The advice about the vicks..I figured that one out eventually seeing that I hadn't gotten a response to it yet. I just allowed him to sleep elsewhere for a few days. He hated it, and so did I but I figured it was best. As for the "low sodium chicken broth"..Wow, I would have never guessed that one. I will try it because I use it often. My vet also told me that the sooner the x-ray, if they are stones, it should be early on because the bleeding just startedand it isn't much. She also said that it was possible to pass the stones if they are small without having to have surgery, too! I called her yesterday and told her that there was not sign of blood now for about 4 or 5 days. She mentioned the antibiotics may have worked for him, but to still get in for the x-ray soon. Again, it just all boils down to me getting him back in for the x-ray and I know this. Thanx again for your advice!!!!!!
