My cat Charlie went for his ultrasound today on his bladder. He has been having urinary tract infections. Last Saturday when I had him at the vet, the vet said his bladder felt "unusual" and was afraid that maybe there was a tumor there. I just got good news....no tumor, no stones, no nothing....except his bladder has thickened. I can live with that if he can! :) He is an old cat...I am unsure of his exact age. He looked old when I rescued him in 1997...he was scraggly looking, and missing teeth. Anyway, 12 years later, here he still is....my fuzzy gray boy with his little mustache. I love him so much and I am so glad that he is ok. He is a tough guy...he has had 2 bladderstone surgeries, liver problems, he currently has mega-colon and thyroid disease, and his kidneys are only functioning at about 70%. We hydrate him at home, and he is on meds for the other ailments. I am so relieved...now I can breathe and go on with the rest of my day. :)

What a beautiful cat Missy...I'm glad the tests came out positive.
Great news. It's so traumatic when pets are having health problems. But our last kitty had bladder, kidney and thyroid problems, too - and she lived to be nearly 24 years old! Hope Charlie keeps doing well.
I feel for you, and am so glad your sweetie is ok. My ancient old kitty is also having problems too and I am just happy to have her with me just one more day. :)
I am so pleased to hear it is good news. You deserve some happiness and good news at the moment, as you have had such a rough time.
That is great news! He's so adorable!
My husband says if Charlie lives to be 24 years old we will have to file for bankruptcy. :)
I know you are relieved! Some people don't understand how precious our furry friends our to us.
BTW - does Charlie have a MyCatSpace?

I feel for you and for Charlie. I'm so happy he does not have a tumor. He has been fortunate to have a loving home with you for 12 years after being a stray. May he enjoy many more happy years with you.
L. Diane: No, he doesn't but it's funny that you mention it because I always have wanted to do a Myspace page for him!
Diane: Thank you so much :) I hope that he is with us for a long time. I think Charlie's life would have been cut short had I not gotten him off of the streets.
I am so glad he does not have a tumor.
AWWWWW, your kitty is soooo cute! Fluffy, just like mine!
I am so glad that there is no tumor! Whew!
Yeah Charlie...tumor free is great news. Great. I'm glad that you updated us.
Phew!
I'm so glad that your Charlie is OK. He's so cute!
Sorry I'm late commenting-had a bad week. Just wanted to say how happy I am that Charlie is good. Thank God!
