Hi my cat has just been prescribed Metacam; can you please advise for how long he should take it before I take another urine sample back to the vets? He has a little blood in his urine and the vet has put him on this medication. Thanks.

Hello.
No one but your vet can answer this appropriately. Too many variables like disease, diagnostics (or lack there of), and your cats physical health influence this answer.
Please call your vet and ask for clarification on the duration and use of the medication they prescribed. It is part of the exam and office fee you paid for and they are the best source for your cats ideal care. Also ask about diet, exercise and supplements to help avoid future episodes.
