My male cat licked itself raw from heat, will not eat, lost weight, and now urinates often with little output – what should I do?
Frequent, scanty urination in a male cat points to a urinary/reproductive problem common in males because of their narrow urethra. See a vet soon to avoid blockage or worse.
My 1.5-year-old male cat was locked in a room two nights ago and peed on the bed; since last night he keeps going to the litter box every 10 minutes but produces no urine. Still the same tonight. What should I do?
This is likely feline idiopathic cystitis, a common lower-urinary issue from stress causing frequent urination with little/no output, risking blockage, blood, even rupture. Get the vet to catheterize and give anti-inflammatory/mucosal-repair meds.

My Cat Urinates Very Frequently Lately but Only a Few Drops Each Time; Today Almost Every Few Minutes, With Pink Blood; Drinks and Eats Little; a Larger Cat Was Adopted Half a Month Ago
Frequent urination, little urine, bloody drips indicate a urinary disease (idiopathic cystitis, stones, crystals, infection, tumor). New cat plus low water intake - stress and cystitis. Get ultrasound, urinalysis, bloodwork. Increase water (wet food), use calming agents for environmental stress.
My 7-month-old male cat—not sure if in heat—constantly secretes coin-sized white sticky fluid from the urethra above the testicles, with a foul smell. Disease or heat? No spraying or mounting.
White sticky urethral discharge with foul smell may be from urinary disease or normal heat reaction; observe urination or get a urinary exam. Possible causes: urethritis, urethral stones, or other urinary diseases like FIC, bacterial cystitis, or tumors. Watch for difficult/frequent urination, urgency, dribbling, blood, or blockage; give more water/wet food; see a vet if abnormal.
My cat’s urine was pink at first, then it barely ate and had no stool; after amoxicillin the pink stopped but it keeps straining with only a little yellow urine, hides under the table, sleeps deeply, and vomited up what I fed—what is going on?
From your description the cat likely has a urinary tract disease. Straining with only a little urine, vomiting, frequent litter-box squatting, dribbling, and a full bladder suggest a blockage causing blood in urine and urinary retention. Long retention leads to toxin buildup and acute kidney failure with vomiting—usually male cats from cystitis, crystals, or bacteria. Rush to a vet for catheterization.

What happens if a dog gets stones?
A dog with stones usually shows frequent urination, urgency, incontinence, darker and cloudy urine, and abdominal pain; the stones irritate the bladder and kidneys, causing discomfort, lethargy, and appetite loss. Large or long-standing stones may block the urethra or cause infection, leading to urinary retention. See a vet for tests and treatment like medication, surgery, or prevention.
