|  Reply Poor Maggie  Why would you not want to pay for her to become well? No offence meant but i have both dogs and cats i love them all the same. Ooooh I want to recommend getting insurance for your dogs as my insurance pays everything except the small amount of £60/$120 which i have to pay, no matter how big the problem is.

Well, maybe it's ok for a cat...not sure but there are too many ingredients in the canine ones that I don't want to feed my dogs, so I hope they never need a special diet. | |

| How is Maggie doing now?? What is her urine pH? I'm sorry if I missed another thread. Does she have UTIs or blood in her urine often? The type of prescription cat food will depend on what kinds of stones she has. I know the ingredients aren't optimal, but if it can keep the stones from forming, then it might be better. Did they do an ultrasound to check for stones?

Yes, they did an ultrasound and said there were shadows and couldn't be sure if they were stones or not. That's why they want to take a $125.00 x-ray. I'm not sure what her pH is - I didn't even think to ask since I've never encountered this problem before with any othere cat or dog. Maybe I will call and see if they will tell me. So no, she has never had this before. I keep a potty pad down where she is not supposed to go and she tends to go there when she is straining to go - which is nice since I can watch for any more blood. We'll see what happens when this round of antibiotics is done. | |

| Gosh, I'm so sorry that Maggie is going through this...When they check her urine at the end of the antibiotics, ask them to check her for crystals again and her pH...I'll say a little prayer for her.

Thank you.  Yes, I will have them check for the pH and for crystals. I hope this will clear up by then. | |
