What do I do about infected testicles?
If at all possible, you should take you kitty to the vet right away!! I work at an animal hospital, and I would not recommend waiting that long. First of all, he is probably in pain. Second, if he was neutered then he has no testicles. So there must be something else that is painful and bloody. It is possible he is on his way to having a urethral blockage. If this is the case, then it is a life threatening emergency and he could die within hours once he is blocked. He could also have a UTI. Again very painful. You should not make him wait in pain for that long. Animals are very good at concealing pain, so it may not always be obvious when he is in pain. Also, if he has some kind of infection going on in his urinary tract, waiting too long can lead to a kidney infection and possibly permanent kidney damage. Whatever it is, you really should take him to the vet ASAP!!! I'm sure you have done everything right. Sometimes this stuff just happens. But you should not wait for 3 days, That is just too long. Please take him to the vet!!!!!!!! If finances are a concern, most veterinary offices accept Care Credit. It's a credit card and as long as you make your minimum monthly payments, there is no interest. spending $300 or under you will have 3 months to pay it off. At my work, if a client spends more than $300, they automatically have the option to spread it out up to 18 months with no interest. Go to carecredit.com. It may redirect you to ge money (or something like that) cuz that's who it is through. Care credit also is accepted by many human places. such as the dentist. I had Lasik eye surgery with my Care Credit. Hope this helps you out!
