A Cure for Urinary Blocking?
Brando did it again. Nearly scared the -- um, you know -- out of us
yesterday when he urinated inappropriately, and then didn't seem to go for awhile. He's blocked before, so we're always on Red Alert if it appears there may be a problem. Last time, I ran him to the vet, and it was the Eve of Thanksgiving. No one would be there. "Take him to the University vet clinic", they said. Now, I have taken a cab there, and am short on funds, and am freaking out. Luckily, a lovely vet assistant offered to run me up there. So we get in her car, and two minutes into the drive, he pees. A lake. She gets out the trusty ol' cell phone to ask the vet "Come back or go on?" and they suggest we continue, just to make sure. He's checked out, no problems. So yesterday, I call the vet, and she says to bring him in , just in case. I call the cab, get him loaded, and a few minutes into the drive smell something I'd rather not smell. Yep, he peed in the cab. Luckily, there were enough newspapers in the carrier. The vet checked him over thoroughly and pronounced him fit, except for some dental work that needs done. He did have a suggestion for the next time it looks like he might be blocking, though. "Get in a car, and start to drive over here. If he doesn't go, come on over. And if he does, just turn around and go back home!" I guess getting in a vehicle scares the you-know-what out of Brando! Ginger-lyn |
