Tabby heard they were prepping for surgery and apparently thought "OH, no, no more of that crap!" and HE STARTED PEEING ON HIS OWN!! They kept him another day to observe and SENT HIIM HOME WITHOUT the surgery!
Now, things may still go South again sometime, special diet or no, and we may look at this again in future- but for now, TABBY II IS HOME and the happiest tabby cat you'll see today!!!
THANKS to all who helped by petitioning for his improvement!!!
