So, my cat is normally as routine as my alarm. He's always waiting for me in the morning and I feed him, take my pills, and we go into the bathroom together so he can sit on the radiator while I shower. This morning, he was in the litter box and remained in the box until I got out of the shower. Which is odd. If he does hang out in there, it's usually to kick shit around and cause a fuss but he was just squatting. I made a vet appointment and took him in. Here are the details:
-
I know he ate some bologna casing. He doesn't normally go up on the counter, but my boyfriend left bologna casing from a midnight snack and I found some in a little pile of vomit. It's not digestible and is made of cotton muslin.
-
His dipstick and urine samples were clear. Except for one very small crystal.
-
Because he had a full tummy, they wanted us to wait it out and come back for x rays in the morning.
He's not yowling, just straining. When he pees, it's just a little dribble and he hasn't pooped since at least 6 am. The vet says to just hang in there and wait for our appointment tomorrow unless it gets too concerning but I'm a worry-wart and this is the first time he's ever been sick.
Any advice or stories of similar situations would be helpful.
Thank you so much!!!!
