Don't they have that thing that can breaks them up? I heard others have had wonderful results with it, on themselves, not pets. I have several that they could not surgically removed without doing too much damage to the kidneys. They really don't cause any problem unless part breaks off. Does the vet know what caused the stones, some have to do with calcium and some with uric acid, and diet should be modified depending on causation. Stones don't necessarily cause infection, but sometimes infections can cause stones to form. Good luck, I hope you can find some good news.
