Is this a recent development? I would recommend a thundershirt, but be aware you need to put it on the dog BEFORE the storm hits. Medication can also help.
Beyond that, I would work on desensitization with sounds.
Additionally, I’d like to add my Doberman was not sound averse until after her spay, and she slowly increased in her storm aversion. She went from a dog who would stand outside and glare at the sky for daring to make noise when she was intact to a dog who’d cower on her bed post-spay. It was bizarre. We worked on desensitization training with Youtube videos and the highest value treats I had – bits of medium-rare steak. It helped.
Hello,
It’s hard for me to answer this because the answer lies in an examination. If he has a small, soft, non painful bladder and is urinating comfortably then I would say that it is ok to give him some time at home to recuperate. But. The best answer always has to be the safest answer and I always have to say that the best advice I can give is to see a vet.
Can you call the er and ask to speak to someone who just took care of him? Or see your regular vet first thing Monday morning?
I hope he’s ok
I might not have phased my question right. I just wanted to know once blockage has been opened and cat sent home does the cat usually go back to normal behavior or does it take a couple of days for the cat to recoup from having had the trauma.? He is peeing, eating and drinking.
