So my wife takes our ten year old cat (Milo) to the vet this morning.....the last several days he has decided not to use the litter box and crap everywhere he wants too.....

they did an x-ray and found he was backed up quite a bit as well as needing updates on his shots.....the vet also recommended we buy the special diet food with extra high fiber....

anyway...they kept him most of the morning and gave him two enema's....the first prooduced nothing but a few pellets (lol!)
however the second enema produced as my wife explained....
"an explosion of poop across the exam floor"

he seems to be better now according to my wife...not whining and panting like he was and he chowed down on the high fiber food

total charges: $ 332.45

do you take Visa?

I'm glad that kitty is feeling better. It's so sad when pets are ill, they can't tell you what's wrong with them. Poor thing.
