Update on Kaylanee:
After spending about 6 hours at the Veterinary urgent care, on Saturday, as I suspected, she was diagnosed with a UTI. The vet was surprised as her preliminary thought was it was most likely a bladder infection, since UTIs in female cats are rare. When urine viewed under microscope, blood was noted and the bacteria was rod shaped, making it more challenging to treat. We came home with 3 different meds, including an antibiotic, a probiotic, and hydro care. She has so many meds now, temporarily, that I had to set up an am/pm med bar, so I don’t give the meds at the wrong time and it also saves me time when I get home late at night or rushing around before work in the morning. The good news is she seems to be doing much better after two days of antibiotics, using the litter box PRN and peeing vs., jumping in/out upward of 18x in 4 hours on Sunday and spending extensive periods of time in their, prior to vet visit, and not peeing. I continue to have her isolated from Takoda and Oreo, which I hate doing but it’s the only way I’m able to monitor her litter box use. The bad news is the antibiotic is creating havoc on her intestines and she’s having “mud” piles. Thankfully, the antibiotic is temporary. This is a picture of her this morning sitting in one of her favorite places, watching cat tv. Since coming home from the vet Saturday night she’s also been spending lot of time snuggling up close to me under the blankets while we sleep. She has a sweater on because she’s light weight and I don’t want her to be cold, as the temperature in my house is rather chilly right now. Thanks for all the prayers for Kaylanee. I continue to hold all of you in prayer.
