I've just collected him from the vets. His bladder wasnt full so no blockage,  just cystitis, they think - so he's had antibiotic just in case of infection, and metacam. However, when I went in to see the the vet, she showed me that he had blood coming from his nose  :shocked: which he didnt have when I took him in this morning (well not that I noticied anyway) - so not sure what thats all about - vet said something about a polyp or and ulcerative condition in his nose  :shocked: His blood pressure is normal now, forgot to ask if he will still have to take his BP tablets - I'll have to ring tomorrow.

Perhaps they will put a catheter into the bladder to release the urine and then try and find out what is causing the problem. Hope everything turns out for the best. :hug:

Possible bladder blockage  :( He was fine first thing, ate his breakfast and had his BP tablet. Then he went outside while I was feeding foster cats and I could hear him yowling (he does that from time to time anyway) but I realised he was scraping at the ground - thought constipation at first - then, indoors he was going from one litter tray to the other - and I realised he was trying to wee, and not able to, so rushed him straight in. Had to leave him as vet was doing op, so waiting to hear.
