Three months ago, my 2.5-year-old pug had blood in his urine and showed symptoms like frequent urination and pain while urinating. We took him to a vet who diagnosed it as a UTI and prescribed amoxicillin tablets for five days. After completing the medication, he seemed fine, but the same symptoms returned after 15-20 days. We went back to the vet, who suggested an X-ray. However, my dog resisted the X-ray, so we did a urine culture instead, which showed the presence of E. coli bacteria. The vet prescribed another 10-day course of amoxicillin, and again, he recovered. But after 20 days, the symptoms came back, so we returned to the vet. This time, he was sedated for an X-ray and blood tests. The X-ray didn’t show any kidney stones, but the blood test revealed high levels of TLC, ABS neutrophils, and DLS neutrophils. Despite this, his kidney and liver functions were normal. The doctor then prescribed cefpet tablets for 10 days, and once again, everything seemed fine. Continuation in the comments....

Now, after just two weeks, the symptoms have returned. We are currently in a rural area in Rajasthan and had to travel 60 km to consult this vet. We will be traveling to our hometown in Kerala in 20 days. Can we give him a 5-day course of amoxicillin and take him to Kerala for further consultation? Apart from blood in the urine and frequent urination, he doesn’t have any other symptoms and is eating and drinking normally. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Please help us.

Ok. Such recurrent infection can happen when there’s primary cause such as presence of crystals. It is highly recommended to get urine analysis done. Presence of crystals are easily identified in urine analysis than any other tests. You can anyhow get it done from any laboratory as early as possible.

Infection can be controlled once the primary cause is eliminated.

My cat's been making this sound since she woke up this morning. She used to make this sound when she first came to live with us but then she stopped doing it for months and now she started making this sound again. I tried to give her food, play with her, pat her and basically whatever all I could think of but apparently I'm unable to understand her. Maybe a TMI but it's raining here, so has it got something to do with it? Also, she doesn't look to be hurt physically apparent to eyes.
