...I could not pee!
I have a bladder infection...
But I am going to be fine, Dr. Joe said so!
First thing yesterday morning I was stuffed into the PTU and taken to see the very nice Dr. Joe. He listened to my heart and lungs and took my vitals. He squeezed me and said that I had swollen ::whispers:: anal glands! And then kitties he...he...he catheterized me! I cried, and then Mommy cried when I cried. It was good that he did that because I had blood in my pee and Dr. Joe knew exactly what to do! He expressed my ::anal glands:: and then he gave me two shots - one for the swelling so it would go down and one for the infection. The one he gave me for the infection means that I do not have to take any pills! He said I should be fine and feeling better very soon.
You know what helped me the most? Your purrs and prayers, I can report that they are as magical as the loving I am getting from Mommy and Daddy. I want to thank all of you for the very heartfelt wishes. I read every one of them and I want to say thank-you from the bottom of my little kitty heart.
I am feeling better, but not 100% yet. Cuddles and snuggles with Mommy and Daddy are helping a lot.
Smoochies to all of you my friends, you are the bestest! (((HUGS)))!!!

Oh, Parker sweetie, we are so glad that is all over! We were crying just reading about what all Dr. Joe did to you. But now you are on the road to recovery and feeling all better.
(((HUGS)))
Oh my friend... we continue to send you lots and lots of fluffles and rumbles, you look so forlorn!
We hope you're feeling much better and each day brings great improvement.
I think it was Diamond's fur too!

PeeEssWoo: Hi Diamond! Keep an eye on her!
I'm so glad it's over and that everything is going to be okay. My mom cries when I cry, too!
Oh Parker. My mum cried because you cried. I hope you start to feel better soon. I am sending my best purrs for you.
Aw, Parker, we're so sorry it was painful, but we're glad it's over and done with and that you are going to be okay. Nicki has had his anal glands expressed a couple of times, but so far hasn't had an infection. (I'm sure that's only a matter of time....)
Sending lots of healing Light and healing purrs and kitty kisses. And hugs to your mom, too!
Poor sweet Parker! I'm sorry you had some potty problems and (anal gland problems). I sure hope you feel better soon! And hooray for no pills!
O mai goodness! Not the ::whispers:: anal glands! We all love that shot verses taking a gazillion nasty pills over and over again. Not that we love the shot... oh, you understand...
All of us are so glad you're already feeling better. We know your Mommy and Dadddy are taking the best care of you!
Whew! That was kind of scary, but we are sooooo glad you are fixed up and will be 100% again soon! We kept checking your blog until we went to bed to see if there was an update. Purrs and prayers continue...

PARKER!!!! so sorry for the mix-up!!! you are definitely a girl-cat with your pinky page here, aren't you!!!! can you forgive a big, silly tomcat like me??? i would like to blame MOM because she has this awesome laptop that i'm using now with appropriate graphics ... but sometimes she makes me use her old desktop like yesterday, and it just doesn't work out. anyway, glad to make your acquanitance and SUPER happy that you are much better. sorry you had to go through all that. my mom always says it's going to be okay, and the doctor is there to "help" me and stuff ... but it never seems like it. i always just wanna get OUT of that place!!! purrs to you until you are good as new!!!!

OH this is no fair. I am late.
I forgot to check on you. The last I knew was that you were going to the torture place in the snowy storm.
This is moms fault, she has been digging the snow
and then she got a bit crabby from cabin fever.
You were tortured and you were crying and then you got two ouchie pricks.
Parkerrrr I feel so sad that you were tortured.
I know you are getting better now. I am so glad you are back safe and sound home.
I hope your pee is coming out good now.
I hope your snow is managable for your beans to get out and buy you new toys and stuff.
I hope you feel super wonderful now
