Pu Surgery Cats. You must work closely with your veterinarian to prevent future blockages. The procedure is most commonly done in male cats that suffer from feline lower urinary tract.
A perineal urethrostomy is a surgical procedure that widens the opening of the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder to outside of the body) and it is performed on both cats and dogs. Older cats sometimes develop soft tissue sarcomas, malignant tumors that appear as lumps in the muscle or fat just below the skin on the legs, trunk, abdomen, head or neck. Despite these potential complications, a pu is a wonderful option for a cat that has experienced multiple or severe urinary blockages and is facing the possibility of euthanasia.
Five cats did not survive the first 14 days after surgery.
I'm guessing your vet thinks this is the way to go, because your cat has blocked more than 3 times in a short period of time. Overall, he's had good results, but he leaks like it's his job. While cat surgery may help in a return to a good life, it is not without risk. Well finally, the vet told me that he would need a pu surgery.
