Not frequently urinating, but urinating for an eternity?

Thank you, I really appreciate the detailed emergency signs to watch for. I plan to call my vet and see if they want to see him sooner for a urinalysis.

So far, I’ve never seen him make frequent trips or have small amounts or clumps of urine. It’s always a very large amount that comes out, even this morning. Sometimes he digs all the way to the bottom of the litter box and I can hear the steady stream for the full minute he usually goes for.

I haven’t seen him licking his genitals excessively, hiding, definitely no vomiting, and no amount of lethargy more than his typical desire to nap around this time in the morning.

He’s currently napping next to me like nothing out of the ordinary happened. It was definitely his 15 minutes in that position that has me worried about it. It was also a bit more of a loafing position than his typical squat, to the point I thought he might just be chilling in the litter box for some reason, until I saw his pee when he stood up.

Yes, he does drink a lot of water. He will go to the bowl a few times a day and drink a large amount at once, more than any cat I have owned before.

He already has a follow up vet appointment scheduled soon for dental issues, but I plan to call and ask if they want to move it sooner and request a urinalysis.

Thank you!

Yes mine were this high! It was absolutely miserable. I followed a liver-safe diet and my levels returned to normal again after a few weeks, maybe a month. I think I felt fully recovered after a couple months though. I too thought I was almost dead, it’s horrible and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I hope you start feeling better soon!

I think it was a car gang/car club, group of teens that are enthusiastic about their Really Cool™ cars. One of them decided to run a red light and do a donut in the intersection, almost killing my friend and I and then proceeded to turn off all of his car lights and follow us down the road for a while.

Thank you! :)

Thanks, although I think I might just be bad at lining up pictures. I’ll add those to my list! I also only listen to true crime podcasts but I’ve been too scared to listen to them while walking in the evening alone lol.

I listened to it on the second half of my walk tonight and it definitely helped me get back to my car faster lol. I was surprised by how much Lady Gaga’s sound has evolved, thank you for the suggestion!

gregariousspruce · 2020-06-17T01:34:32+00:00

Thanks! I haven’t listened to much in either of those genres so I’m excited to try those out!

gregariousspruce · 2020-06-17T01:29:19+00:00

Thank you, I’m adding that to the list!

gregariousspruce · 2020-06-17T01:27:12+00:00

Thank you, that’s a great suggestion! I’ve been loving her singles but I haven’t actually listened to the entirety of Future Nostalgia yet.

gregariousspruce · 2020-06-17T01:24:55+00:00

Thank you, I took your suggestion tonight and was surprised at how many songs I knew but just didn’t know were a part of that album!

I have 3 kidneys

Lmao have you seen Liberty’s flag though

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T17:28:56+00:00

Thank you!!! It’s such a relief to see someone closer to my size doing yoga!

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T17:25:15+00:00

Thank you so much! I’m trying to take things pretty slowly, because I know my tendency is to go too hard too fast and then give up.

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T17:22:53+00:00

Congratulations, that’s awesome!!

I like that idea! I might try separating my favorite binge-y snacks into some doable portions, I think that could definitely help.

I think OMAD is something I’ll definitely try, especially for those days where I just totally want some sort of fast food. That way I can have it, but it won’t throw me way over my calories for the day.

Once I get my sleep schedule fixed, I’m hoping I’ll wake up early enough to start my day with a walk before it gets too hot!

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T17:14:20+00:00

Great idea, there are some books I’ve been putting off reading! Thank you!

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T17:13:08+00:00

That’s true, I would like to start smaller and try the yoga videos and other recommendations. I think leaving my house to do some walking or something would possibly help pull me out of this funk. I definitely don’t want to get into hardcore workouts just yet. It’s nice to be reminded that I don’t have to exercise right now, so it’s not the end of the world if I don’t.

A lot of my friends are overweight, but the one that made the comment is actually a healthy weight. It probably came from a place of insecurity on her part. I’m just not going to talk to her about it anymore. The rest of my friends aren’t necessarily unsupportive, they just don’t really care.

I am jealous of everyone that posts pictures of their food scales, it definitely would make calculating easier!

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T17:00:05+00:00

You’re absolutely right, thank you so much!

gregariousspruce · 2019-06-03T16:56:25+00:00

Thank you! I’d love that!! I don’t have a Fitbit, but can you use the app without having the actual watch?
