She's had some issues in the past week, but they have been intermittent. And now they seem gone altogether. But we're going to keep the appointment just to make sure.
She has howled almost the entire time she's been locked up. And Leo refused to come down stairs, he sits at the top of the stairs, half way to the bathroom door. We think in commiseration as he does not seem to be trying to intimidate her. But that meant I don't get any furry kitty to sleep with!
Every time someone walks by the stairs and looks up, Leo hangs his head over the top step and looks down at them. With disapproval? As crappy as she is to him, he's really concerned about her!
Greg told Star that she will get out of that bathroom soon, but she's not going to like it. Because it'll be in a cat carrier! We can't let her out, and hope she doesn't escape, because if she does, we'll never get her in time to go to the vet. She's tiny enough to hide almost anywhere!
Fingers and paws crossed that we get a sample and that she's fine!
Why me?

Lots of purrs from us! We've had urine samples taken by the vet via needle, never had to be locked up. (Derry can actually hold his pee for over 24 hours, the max time he's held it so far has been 27.) So paws crossed for good results.
If it's cystitis or a UTI, you might want to check out PetAlive.com's UTI-Free. It's been a godsend for Derry re: his idiopathic cystitis. He gets it twice a day in his canned, on an ongoing basis, has been on it for about 18 months or so.

We did that once with Sniffie....she wouldn't go near it and finally managed to step on it and send the litter flying. Hope things turn out okay.

Aw, bummer. We can usually get samples from Tucker by following him to the box and putting a small container under his bottom. Benny won't let us do that. . we hope you get some pee soon!
Oh sweet Star, we are sending big purrs, prayers and good thoughts your way and we hope that all is okay and will resolve with ease.
My Jack is the one with urinary issues, and he will NOT, i mean absolutely will not, pee on command.. last time I locked him up to get pee (and this was in a regular litter box with regular litter) he went nearly 20 hours.. He has one very shy bladder..
Sending lots of purrs Star's way! We've never had to do that particular pee test thing - it really does not sound like fun.
We hope that Star gave a good sample and that everything checks out all right at the vet!
I sure do hope everything came out okay.
we do hope that everything is just fine and nothing to worry so much about.

Wishing you luck with the sample! We haven't had to do that one yet; only the other kind and that's pretty easy, as long as you are sure it came from the correct cat. Star, wishing you good health, and Leo...don't worry! Star will be back to her normal self in no time.
Poor Star! Purrs to you!
Sending purrs to Star, we hopes her visit with the ebil v e t goes well!

Wes is sending purrays for both yous and Star! Mommy tried togets mes to does that, there was no way! But she putted a clean towel in the bathtub and wringed it out and they got enough to determine what the issue was.
