The Urine has blocked me

OK...so no leavie on July 4th...Buster the cat has a urinary tract blockage. Poor thing. Every year he gets it late spring or early summer. Went to the vet Sunday morning and got some anti-biotics and some steroids to relax things down there for him. He seems to be doing better but need to watch him. Thank God there was a vet open today. Last year he got blocked over Memorial Day weekend and he had to wait (hold his urine) for nearly 36 hours. I thought he was going to die, he was in so much pain. Yes there is a surgery to basically make him a her but the odds of it working aren't the greatest and plus, as a man, well, I don't think I could do it to him. Hope he gets better!

Poor Buster. Today just wasn't meant to be. But when the time comes do just like Christopher Cross sang, "Ride like the wind!"
