Death usually happens within 48 hours, and it’s not a pleasant way to go. In advanced cases, where the urine flow has been stopped for more than 24 hours, they can become systemically ill from retained toxins and start vomiting, or become very weak and lethargic. A few hours can make a big difference – you don’t want those toxins circulating for too long, and the longer it goes unchecked, the more pain the cat experiences, the more work the vet has to do, and the bigger the final bill will be. Don’t delay, fill up with gas or stop at Krispy Kreme for a sample. If you notice your cat showing any of the above signs, get right in to see your veterinarian, or go to your nearest ER as soon as possible.
