Saturday morning started like any usual normal day with EJ feeding the cats and then cleaning their toilets. There were blood on the toilet trays.
EJ knew the culprit to be Pebble as she was seen straining a few times the day before. Few days before that, Pebble was quieter than usual, sleeping a lot curled up in a corner alone.
Quickly an appointment was made with the vet that afternoon. Pebble mewed non-stop throughout the journey. The extended weekend due to two festival public holidays resulted in heavy traffic and jam.
Pebble was a good girl and allowed her doctor to manipulate her in whichever way needed which was good as her doctor could check her thoroughly.
An x-ray was taken. There were two shaded spots in her bladder. And since it could not be ascertain what it is, an ultrasound was done.
Pebble's belly was shaved. The ultrasound showed an irregular shaped bladder but then Pebble had emptied her bladder during the drive, so nothing is conclusive.
For now, she is on medication for FLUTD and will be checked again after two weeks.

PS: Our human wanted to post the x-ray but found that what was brought home was an empty envelope. The x-ray was left behind at the vet!

Oh dear - we just went thru this with Snowball. Hope it all works out for Pebbles. Could this be kidney stones in her bladder?
I sure do hope she feels better really soon. Those pee problems are no fun at all.
You take care Pebble and get well soon!!

Oh, pretty Pebbles. I hope the medicine clears it up. If not, maybe a specialist can look at her ultrasound. Lucy's ultrasound had an area the vet was unsure of so an internist analyzed it. Anyway, bladder cancer is very rare nd we certainly hope that's not it. Here's hoping its an infection that goes away very soon and she feels better. Thanks, EJ, for your nice note about Lucy.
