This 11-year-old cat cannot pee and poop for the past 2 days after returning home from boarding for 6 days. I palpated a large mango-sized bladder. This is the first time he has difficulty in peeing.

Blood tests showed bacterial infections and kidney failure. Can this cat be saved?
Dr Daniel unblocked the blocked bladder, took out the urine and irrigated the bladder. Urine and blood collection.

At Day 3 of hospitalisation as in this video, the cat looks much alert. Two more days of drips and he will go home. No more boarding for him. The younger cat boarded at the same time had no problem in urination. I prescribed antibiotics and C/D canned food for the next 21 days. The owner has to make sure that the cat eats the C/D which is mixed with A/D as the cat favoured A/D during hospitalisation.

The cat is OK as at Jan 6, 2014. Will phone the owner to find out what's the feeding regime.
