How did he even get a UTI? (It’s difficult to acknowledge what really could have happened to him. But he still is constantly whezzing from something undiagnosed

Well Max

My second worst nightmare came true. Last Friday. The one where I needed to figure out somehow to get you to the doctor. The one that whirls around and around in my head all day and everyday. Because I can no longer can drivedrive.

But it’s now been over a week since he got an 100 dollar 💵 antibiotic shot for what was not entirely diagnosed because he peed all over everything before me and the “price gouging” “medical” transportation that I have been having to use got there. So I had to pay for a 400 blood test. But I know he probably had one because he urine smelled foul. I keep the box clean everyday, so I have absolutely no clue how he could have gotten one. It just is another “strange” out of the blue illness that has no basis in understanding.

But now over a week later the constant worrying and Watching him every minute. Looking in his little box all the time. Being concerned that he still isn’t acting like himself. Is making my meger existence just more unbearable.

I actually just am unable to wrap my head around how serious this situation could have been. And actually he was acting strange and I’ll for a few weeks. Thank God (and I really mean it) that I finally noticed the extreme ammonia smell and looked up to find that wasn’t normal. (I actually didn’t know)

The truth of it really I just can’t comprehend because most likely he had the infection for a while and it was turning more and more serious. Urinary tract infections are extremely serious especially in male cats. They can get a blockage and not be able to pee at all (and the truth is if it gets to that point it can be fatal) or they would need immediate emergency surgery tonsave their lives that’s always been a surprise to me (but it’s really true)

Two years ago, Max came close he had a more serious Uti. And that’s when I wasn’t in pain like this and my unreliable neighbor was still here. She was reliable one time and drove us the 40 miles there and back to the emergency vet. If she hadn’t I don’t know what might have occurred

He is still constantly wheezing though. Its horrible for us both. 😢 why does he keep getting SICK? meowmmy thinks ITS QUITE A COICENDENCE.

I feel like I can’t take it anymore, though.
