Hail all.
In the midst of the blizzard we are at the animal ER with Merlin. He was acting strange and running from litter box to litterbox and was not getting much of anything out. I knew thar ment a trip to the ER.
Please pray. He has never had problems before but we did a food switch for Kiki and I think it did him in. Oh......fart....what a nite.

Oh, poor Merlin and poor you! Hope it all gets sorted out, and that it is nothing serious! Stay safe in the blizzard :)

Lots of love and positive energy coming your away! I hope they figure out he’s just constipated or something. Feel better, Merlin.

Thoughts and prayers sent you and Merlin's way. Hope it's nothing serious. Take care in the blizzard. Update when you find out something.

He had to stay at the ER. We just got home through the cold. He had a blocked urethra. Vet thinks it is from stress. He is having a cathater put in now and the vet will call when procedure is done. Vet said it os good we caught this very early so he doesn't have a lot of damage.

here he is checking out his digs at the ER.
I will not be able to sleep untill I hear from the vet. I really hope he will only have to stay till tomorrow. Hope we can bring him home then or it will be Wednesday depending on how he does.

Oh, I'm sorry Merlin is having problems. Good thing you did get him
to the Vet so quickly. That's a plus. Praying for him and you.
It will be hard for you to sleep thinking about him. Wanting him home.

Oh Monique...I just am seeing this. Sounds like everything is under control, except your nerves of course. Prayers are sent to Merlin. Please keep us updated. I hope your snuggle boy comes home today and you both get to catch up on sleep.

Good thing you trusted your instincts and took him in! Hope he is feeling better, did the vet say what might have caused the blockage?

We won't probably be able to take him til tomorrow night. We are going to go and see him thia afternoon and take him some fresh shirts. I don't want him getting ring around thw colllar.
