[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 361033, member: 1963"] My current guy just gets the occasional bladder infection. No crystals. No blockage. He just gets UTIs and pees blood all over the house. On the diets: Hills makes a food called C/D for the crystals. I think Purina makes an RX diet for the same. Used to be a company called Felistar that made a special diet as well. Much as I dislike Hill's OTC products, the C/D is very palatable and most cats love it. Only problem I ever had with it was weight gain from the cats pigging out on it. The surgery, called a Penile Uresthostomy or PU, used to involve removing the penis and rerouting the urethra to a rearward location. I scrubbed in quite a few of these as a vet tech. I don't know if they still do them that way or if they spare the penis during the modern surgery. I'm talking thirty years ago in my case. [/QUOTE]
