Caregiver stress is out in full force. Little cappy bear's infection seems to be back for round two. I noticed plastic smelling tinkles last evening and once again this morning. Our vet re-examined Cappy's tinkles and two types of bacteria are present. I think my stress is stemming from how quickly the infection came back. I did everything by the book, my vet even said it was the gold standard of pet care: urinalysis, culture, treat, recheck urinalysis, recheck culture. Cappy was totally in the clear with the culture recheck. Seven days later the same bacteria is back! Moment of gratitude for noticing the change in tinkle scent and getting Cappy re-examined within 24 hours. My nose is very sharp lol. Additionally, Cappy doesn't seem to be showing any signs of discomfort, lethargy, or loss of appetite.. purely plastic smelling tinkles lol. I feel good with the course of action for Cappy's care the next few weeks. Fingers crossed we knock out this infection once and for all. #paresis #cats #specialbond #caregiverstress
