You have a 45 minute bumpy drive which could cause more problems in a back injury too, and if you having to go back repeatedly then the risk of doing some damage is going to be greater.

Cats purr for all sorts of reasons, but one of those is pain , I'm sure she looks forwards to your visits, and they perk her up mentally though.

In all honesty i would leave her where she is, take in some tasty favourite morsels for her and i'm sure the nurses will sit with her whenever possible. I know when i was nursing any "long term" and overnight patients got alot of attention and special love.

If i was in your position i would leave her where she is, she is in the best place for her right now - sorry x

I am sorry but I agree. It's the expressing urine and that fact she needs a drip etc. I would just be a bundle of worry, I think. We had a cat with a broken hip and even he was a worry at home, trying to keep him still, in the cage without meowing and wanting out. It was very difficult.
