She's having the tests done tomorrow, the vet didn't want to alarm me and I understand it.. it can be many things, some of them not so good.. but I don't want to make assumptions. She's having blood and urine tests and hopefully we'll have the results on Thursday.
Sadly we are going away on holiday on Friday, worst possible timing |

Um yeah--that sounds like a potentially very serious matter to me.

Hi all,
We got the results and it's not cancer. She's been diagnosed with hyperthiroidism and given some pills which hopefully will correct the problem. Apart from this they've detected a mass on her bladder, not sure what it is yet but the vets seems more concerned with the thyroid problems. Sadly now she's incontinent, which is causing us a lot of trouble.... Apart from this she seems perfectly happy, eating a lot and quite relaxed, although she cleans herself a lot, I guess because of the incontineny issue... Any tips with this? I have my sofas covered with towels that i need to wash everyday, and a constant smell of pee in the house... |

Our girl started peeing all over the house after 7 years of no problems. Turns out she had a bladder infection and it was cleared up with antibiotics. Kidney issues like crystals or stones also have similar symptoms I think (inappropriate urination). I also agree with the advise to take them to the vet for a check up.

Thanks venus, we did that 2 weeks ago and there's no infection, I wish it was that simple.
There's a mass in her bladder, could be a stone, cyst, tumor.. hopefully they will find out today. The incontinency is getting worse everyday, she's just leaking all the time. She tries to clean herself continiously but I think this cannot be good for her either... we really hope they find a solution. Our other cat (her brother) is getting very aggressive towards her (they've always got along), we think maybe because she smells bad.. |
