My poor cat is back in the hospital...
You might remember the saga of our cat Zoey, who went into the emergency hospital a few months back for a urinary tract blockage. He had an operation and that took care of the problem for a while.
But the poor kitty is now back in the hospital with a catheter installed, and it looks as though the poor thing is headed for more surgery on Thursday.
So today K and I both feel terrible, because we love that cat. Even the dog is wandering around the house, looking for Zoey.

Sorry to hear about Zoey. If it's any comfort, my sister's 15-year old feline (Romeo) was deathly ill, had his operation, and is now good as new. I wish you well.

Oh no! Do you think Zoey might like a visit from Coco? I could get a little candy striper uniform (John Galliano, of course).
Sending all my happy kitty thoughts to Zoey....

Depends... how handy is Coco with a catheter?

Wishing Zoey and you, her people the best. Hard stuff when a family member is hospitalized...

My cat (Fenway), a tuff tuxedo, had a urinary blockage that required his weener to be removed at age 3 due to crystals that had formed and were too narrow to pass the urethra. The appendage had long since been rendered decorative, and he lived another 15 years.
I encourage everyone to pay attention to the acidity and ash of the food they choose for cats.
I hope your kitty is up and bouncing off the walls soon.
