they did not empty the bladder. no meds. they just told my husband there was white residue on the end

Accepted Answer

If the bladder is not emptied, the cat is still in trouble. There is nothing you can do at home. The cat has to be hospitalized with a urinary catheter for 2-3 days. The condition is fatal if not treated. Has he gone since you got home?
