No, he examined her thoroughly and said it is coming from the anus and showed 
me!  Some dripped on the exam table - secretions. It is more like a gel 
secretion. I mistook it for urine at first.  He said def colitis, that maybe 
she had eaten something to upset her colon.  Gave oral liquid anti b now and 
having hard time getting it down her - she squirms and has sharp, sharp teeth, 
so I fear she may not get as much as she should.  Iy yi yi

Are you sure he did not say cystitis?  That would make more sense from your 
description of symptoms than colitis.

Hi - Vet said it is "colitis", not urinary.  Said she may have eaten something 
bad.  Changed the meds to liquid anti b.  (Not much better as she is a 
fighter!) No x-ray yet - he will wait to see how she does on the anti b.   
Thanks for the tip on the pill form - good idea for the future.  I actually got 
one in her today, though using he pet pockets and some Nutramen gel!  

He said doesn't think the colitis is from the leukemia, but that she will have 
a hard time fighting fever due to her immune system.

Did the vet say whether she was retaining urine in the bladder?  Did he express 
the bladder?
 
With most pill meds you can break it up and put it in a 1 cc syringe with no 
needle, draw up a tiny amount of water, and let is dissolve.  I routinely 
liquify meds.

Any info on urinary incontinence in the FELV pos cat?  My cat Chloe is running 
a low grade temp since night before last.  Doc gave pill form of anti b (said 
doesn't have it in the liquid).  I gave one last night along with a bite to my 
finger!  I noticed  a trail of urine on the floor on her way to the litter box 
this morning.  I guess she missed it.  Hope we are not running into further 
complications.

If I may offer some advice, don’t sedate!  My vet hates it because you never 
know how any cat may react…cats get more frightened by sedation, what’s 
happening to them, than a trip.  As long as their cage/carrier is covered, to 
make them feel safe, there’s not much of  problem.  I have been transporting 
cats by car and even on the plane in the cabin often, and never used sedation.  
Some cats were not exactly “tame”.

Just an update.  The rescue was unable to offer any assistance with the 
transport in the time frame needed so they are holding off on getting 2 of the 
cats there.  Instead I will be transporting an FIV+ stressed out kitty on my 
trek.  Wish me luck that his sedatives work!  

 
Thanks so much for the offer to help.
