Thank you for your reply. I did take the male to the vet. He has a UTI and is on pain meds and antibiotics. They told me to keep him separate so I could monitor whether or not he was urinating. I will also take her to the vet for a check up and to see about a diet for her. Thank you. Stacy

My kitty got sick this past weekend and I had to separate him from his sister to keep and eye on him. She seems to be depressed by it.

I took my kitty to the emergency doctor last night and they say he has flutd. I'm confused. They said that he has a small bladder and that it was empty. They gave me some pain medication for him and am waiting for him to urinate so I can bring them a sample. They gave me some no sorb litter for his ...

potty. He squats down and stays there for a few minutes and nothing happens. Then a few minutes later he does the same thing. Vet is closed and it's a holiday weekend. I'm worried. Please help. Thanks
