ANY other advice to be had out there? I know there are some extremely knowledgeable folks on here - I've read hundreds and hundreds of posts with brilliant information. Also, is it ok to give him Pedialyte in the meantime to be sure he doesn't get dehydrated? If he is passing urine, could he still have a blockage? If there's a chance of a small blockage wouldn't more fluids help to flush it? This is just all temporary for the night, to be sure Rocco doesn't get worse. Otherwise, off to the E-vet we go; at the very least, he'll be getting x-rays on Monday from his regular vet.

Edited: One more important thing: The vet said the bilirubin level in his urine was high (around 2) but he not concerned because he said concentrated urine could give an elevated reading. Rocco's sample was very concentrated. He recommended following up once he's urinating better and being sure reading was inaccurate.
