 |  |  |  | Hi Harry,
I have had the PU surgery and so has our other admin Oliver Winston Parsons. It is a serious surgery, but it does have a very good rate of success, so afterwards you will never have to put up with the kind of pain you've had from stones again.
You probably will be in the hospital for a few days after surgery, and when you get home your mobility will be limited for 2 or 3 weeks - you'll likely have one of those surgical cones around your neck. You'll need to use special cat litter during that time, and see the surgeon for a couple of follow-up visits. If your experience with stones has caused you to go outside the litterbox, it may take a little while before you adjust back to everything feeling okay again when you use the litterbox. But after that everything should be just fine for you.
We have a couple of articles about PU surgery in the links section, and we've discussed it in some of the forum threads as well. If you have any other questions feel free to ask here or pawmail me.
When is your surgery scheduled? I will be purring for you.   |  |  |  |  |
