[quote=Anonymous] For those of you who have cats with kidney problems that did not respond well to antibiotics the first time, what choice of action did you choose after that? I have a 15-year-old cat whose UTI did not respond well to the first round of injectable antibiotics/oral antibiotics and her kidney values have plummeted. She has not had any pee accidents since that round of antibiotics. She only eats with the help of an appetite stimulant, but is drinking some. She still likes to sit in my lap, be brushed, but she isn’t interacting with her cat brother, or doing much else besides sleeping. I have been given the option of a second round of antibiotics along with some anti-nausea medication to see if that will help her eat without the appetite stimulant. I am a quality of life cat parent. For those of you who have gone through this, was the second round of antibiotics, helpful or did it just prolong the inevitable? I don’t want her to suffer.
