Poor guy! That happened to a kitty of mine when I was a kid, with the same symptoms. We caught it early and he was fine, but it was a scary couple of days while he stabilized at the vet. I hope your furry child is alright.

If cats just weren't so secretive and weird, instead throwing up all over the carpet and making a scene like dogs do, treating their issues would be so much easier.

Update in case you care: He’s back, he’s SO PEPPY AND HAPPY AND HE LOVES LOVE! He’s peeing a bunch and he seems perfect. He just has to be in his own room for over a week, his brother is super needy right now. They even refunded us a bit, so with all of the support we received it was about 1kUSD out of pocket… a FAR CRY from the 3-4k we were expecting.

Much love again for offering us help but this went from terrible nightmare to manageable situation and all we care about is that he’s back, being himself, and super happy.

I was wondering! That's great, I'm so happy he's doing better!

I’m so sorry you had a kitty that also dealt with that! I’m glad he was okay.

Horking up on the carpet and making a scene is cats’ favorite thing to do!
