My cat leaks urine after PU surgery. How long will this problem last?

Question

It's been ten days since PU surgery and my cat is covered in urine due to leakage. We bathe him twice a day but he continues to be saturated in the morning when we get up and at night when we get home from work. How long does this go on?

The good news is he is passing urine well. When he was blocked the bladder got enlarged and now he doesn't have the bladder tone and control to hold the urine inside and urinate under control. This should improve with time. There is also medication that can help so please talk with your veterinarian about trying some medication. Acupuncture may also help with the neurological control of the bladder. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Newton.
