His urine was bloody after the surgery for a few days but was clear after the stitches were removed. Bailey now urinates straight out the back. It is also possible that the new urethral opening will become too narrow due to scarring. After surgery, cats like Bailey are probably still making the crystals that would normally block them, but now the hole is big enough and the urethra straight enough for the crystals to pass right out. It is important to remember that a cat that has undergone this surgery still has the potential to reblock.
Females can get urinary blockages too.
I'm glad we chose surgery. I think Bailey agrees. For a while after the surgery he wouldn't sleep on my bed like he usually did, so I think he was a little mad. But he's much happier not visiting the veterinarian every week or so. For more information about penile blockages in cats, contact your local veterinarian.
