Fro The Cat
Today I took Fro, our cat, to the Vet as she has been experiencing some elimination problems. This has been going on since January. She's been using a lot litter, upwards to $100 a month, due to frequent/heavy urination. Greg had her to the vet back in February and we were told that her problem is probably just behavior/stress related. We were advised to get her a happy feline pheremone diffuser ($25 a crack) which acts a lot like kitty prozac. This has helped mostly with the pooping outside the box, but the amount she is peeing is still a concern. So, to the vet we went. $217 later after some bloodwork and a urnie sample we are sent home to wait for results. Shes lost a few pounds since February 2-3 but the vet tech didn't record her weight last time we were in. I've weighed her and she is usually upward to 13#. She was barely 10# today. The vet thinks it's pretty likely that Fro has diabetes; and with that I feel that we will probably have to put her to sleep. This makes me sad.
