Well he's back to bring his classic annoying self...  :tired:

He is stressy but also attention seeking but we've concluded his spraying antics are predominatley attention seeking , as it happens within eyesight 9 times out of 10 and often in direct relation to a time he can't get a titibit or a lap to treadle!  :shocked:

I'm going to get some Zylkene as I think it might help him out a little as he's also very territorial and despises it when the neighbourhood cats dare to enter his domain!

Oh the joys of being a meowmy!

Thats great news that Z did a wee in his carrier and isn't blocked.

Is Z always a stressy cat?? If so you might want to consider Zylkene? It has worked calming Jess down as he was a nervous anxious boy.

I have the premium drinkwell fountain and its great, Jess doesn't use it a lot though to be honest but Milo loves it.

We also add water to the felix and only give Jess urinary biscuits he also has cystease.

Well hes' not too bad, so far he hasn't blocked, which was my main worry. In fact he had an accident in his basket, poor love.

He had a pain killer injection and is on AB's and cystease. I've started adding water to his food to make sure he gets plenty.... I think it is stress related, the boys have been hyper for the past few days and that includes RW slam diving his brother at every avaliable opportunity  :(

Z seems to be more himself now, in fact hes' just jumped up on me to dispense his pin prick version of kitty love..........OOOOOOWWWWWW!!

I'm contemplating buying a drinkwell fountain for him...anything to get him to drink...He loves the toilet when it flushes! They have a Catit fountain but have retired it 'cos they just didn't get it... :-:

Luckily he's into wet food with the occasional round of biccies (PAH premium senior- with cranberry extract) so can make sure he gets plenty of fluid.

hope you can sort poor Z out asap. Is he stressed at the moment?  I mean before the cystitis so it could have caused it.

Had to phone the emergency vet at 3 this morning...Z had been in the tray 9 times since 12!  :shocked:

Small amounts every time and didn't want me near his tummy.....also very growly....

both him and his brother have been suffering from 'full moon madness' these past few days and have been a  :censored: nightmare to say the least.

He's booked in for 9am so a few 'soothed bladder' vibes wouldn't go amiss!

No sleep for me tonight.... :tired:
