I'm 99% sure he has another urinary block. He's been in & out of the litter box without result so many times this morning and now he's just sitting in there waiting to go. 
Which now means he has to have surgery. We are checking into a place that does discount procedures (they neutered & chipped him - quality place) I'm hoping they can do it otherwise I'm not sure about the vet - do to our financial situation at the moment - we already owe a chunk (which we've applied for assistance on through a community fund that is kind of like a "scholarship" for pets that wouldn't otherwise get care). We will hear about that in a couple weeks. In the meantime the vet said if we need anything else we'll have to pay up front. Well I'll be talking to them about it - we are honest, hard working people, who make a good living, but the timing is just bad with my husband losing his job 3 weeks ago. I'm telling you, this cat has been non-stop difficulties with his health. Rather disheartening. He's been awesome the last month but wow, what else??
