My poor kitty, Percy, has had a flare of (we believe) his struvite crystals, and gotten completely blocked. Rushed him to the vet this morning after finding him curled up in the litter tray and lethargic, and within 30 seconds or so they had taken him through to be anaesthetised.
I feel not only terrified, and sad that my baby must be feeling so awful; but also guilty because I wanted to take him during the night when I woke up and noticed he was straining to pee and being a bit agitated but DH insisted I was overreacting and that he just needed to rest while his usual treatment kicked in. Should've ignored him and gone anyway.
Apparently his bladder is at bursting point, and they are saying it has the possibility to be fatal although I'm just praying they can unblock him and that his kidneys are ok.
I mean hes a little bugger for screeching in the middle of the night, and walking muddy paws on fresh laundry (seemingly for jokes), and my DH jokes that he hates him - but he is such a lovely friendly cat, with the loudest purr Ive ever heard. I feel like the worst pet owner in the world right now, Ive totally failed him and i should've just taken him last night, I just want him home and curled up on my lap.
They said they would call this afternoon to let me know how he is, so just praying for good news. I won't forgive myself anyway for not getting him seen sooner, but I don't think I'll be able to cope if he isn't ok!
