Maybe if i try to type this fast it'll hurt less..
Bailey had to be put to sleep,,,
Saturday we brought him home from the vet there would bve noone available there over the weekend to express or cathderize him,she(vet tech)couldn't express him she said she "thought" it was because they did it earlier that day.
We brought him home and couldn't express him he was blocked up :(
So off to the emerg vet he went to be catherderized..I was told they got lots of grit and stuff out of there.
We brought him home tried like every hour to express but not much of anything came out,plus we were getting yellow type globs out of his boy part.
We took him back up to the emerg vet hosp,she came out and told me she tried to "Lightly" squeeze his bladder and it POPPED!!!
She said she cathderized him and no urine came out.
She said me options were emerg surgery or being put down. We put him to sleep :(

This dear boy went thru SO much already,the very fist time he went to the emerg hosp his bladder was huge,where Baileys vet thought that it was possible that the cells in his bladder might die altogether seeing as it was SO big,then he spent a week at the vets being expressed and then caterderized then home then to the emerg,cathderized again then home then back up there, She showed me his boy part the actual thing (odd looking) and all around it was purple (poor little guy must of hurt really bad)...

But 1,300 dollars we didn't have to just fork out later,be we needed to TRY,So after all he went thru he deserved peace :(


I wanted to let you all know cuz SO many have written to me,thank you all for your prayers...I don't write much but i do read your stories and cry with you for them and i do pray for your little ones and when they pass I pray for you.
Thank you all for loving your babies and trying to give them a WONDERFUL life.
Jody
