Test Results on Toosday
Sheesh, are we DONE talking about me and the V-E-T yet?
Cloud: All my results were NORMAL except one. My pee is very very concentrated. It must be thinking hard.
Since all my kidney tests were normal, the V-E-T said this just means I must get more water in some how. The V-E-T suggested adding water to my food. She said I can eat dry if I really want, but it must have added water to it and should be the purrscription kind. But I can have non-purrscription wet, since right now my V-E-T thinks my concentrated urine is the bigger problem, not my prior PH issues. The good thing is that I told mom that I like the dry food with water added even better than regular dry!!! Mom was so happy! The V-E-T gave Mom some ways to increase my water intake, and also told mom to give us a third litter box. I have to come back in 6 weeks from when the beans finish implementing all the changes. The V-E-T also said she was willing to give me Prozac to try if I still seem very stressed. Mom said me, her, and Daddy will have to have a long talk before putting me on any pschiatric medicines- so we will see about that.
OK, good, finally done talking about all this medical stuff. Now, I'm going to go find some humiliating photos of Niko to put up for the next few days as revenge.
Niko: Hey!!

We are very happy to read that your results were normal. We hope you will continue to enjoy dry food with water!
Now THAT's not a reason to be mean to Niko...!
Hey, I have an idea! We got something called "Ice Pups" from The Honest Kitchen. The can says it is a "grain-free make-at-home frozen treat or beverage for cats and dogs, made with chicken, turkey, green herbs and love."
The ingredients include no grains, salt, sugar, artificial flavors, preservatives of fillers. You just mix with warm water and it makes a broth that you can drink up warm or freeze for frozen treats. It was $10 for a jar. Just an idea that might make you drink more!
We are glad your results are normal. We hope you can manage to drink more.
Glad to hear you like the dry with water mixed in!! Hopefully this will help with the concentrated pee! Glad all the other tests were normal!
The vet suggested that my mom let me eat more stinky goodness to get in the water. Even though mom tried to get me to use a water fountain, I refused it, but now she leaves several bowls of water around the house and is giving me bottled spring water and I appear to be drinking more.
Good luck.
We're glad to hear that nothing too serious seems to be wrong! Another thing that might help with water (our Mommy has also heard the bit about leaving bowls around the house) is having your mom give you some water in a small syringe a few times a day, just to make sure some gets in you.
Purrs and hugs,

Hip hip hooray!!!
It's sad to hear you had to go to the v-e-t so much, but we're glad the tests came back normal. You get yummy foods that you like too? That sounds good. We hope you drink more water and keep getting better.
Cloud, we're glad to hear that your tests were normal. Our momma tells us that water is good for us, but we're not so sure about that. It's a good thing that you like water with your food.
