Hello there and thank you for providing this platform. I’m in South Africa but I need advice. My neutered male Siamese cat has suddenly developed crystals and wasn’t able to urinate. I asked my friend who runs a charity and she helped to pay for the vet. cat child was put on a drip for about 2 days and recommended and given special Hills food and sent home. About 4 days later the same rhing happens. Back we go, and again on drip and will be released tomorrow. I am stressing terribly. There isn’t money to go back for anything else but to put him down. He is barely 2 years old and I love him. So much. The vet agreed that stress is a cobtributing factor, so this food has CBD in it and he will give 4 days’ anti anxiety meds. What is there that I can do at home to prevent this? It is very hot here, and I suspect this child is not drinking enough water. Can i force water down his throat with a syringe? My cats are lucky, they live on a farm but I do have litter boxes set up inside.
The vet said only the special Hills food and water. I feel there must be something more I can do. What if this happens again in a couple of days?
Any advice please?
