Ugh. Accidentally napped, and woke up quite late for Melbcat’s meds.
Cat tmi
She’s still been crying and desperately ran away after using the litterbox today so I think her uti is still causing pain. When it should be settling? She’s constipated too.Already been to the vet on Tuesday to try and find out what the pain is but now I think it’s that.
I’ve given the extra pain relief on top of her usual and might have to just give it more routinely instead of waiting for the need. Making my alarms louder so I actually hear them.
I need to find where that Cystapro stuff is - it’s bright red and tastes terrible but maybe right now it could give some relief. I’ve given her a hot water bottle to lie on while I look.
I also mixed a little Osmolax into her wet food with extra water plus pumpkin baby food and might keep that up until things improve.
Edit: That is so weird. I can’t find the Cystapro capsules. I did stop using it but don’t remember throwing them away
