The Signs and Symptoms of UI in Cats

Urinary infection is a common cat health problem for cats, especailly males due to their physiology.

Although it is easily treated, it can lead to kidney failure and even death if left untreated.

If you suspect UI, take your cat to a reputable vet immediately.

Some of the symptoms and signs to look for include: Straining to urinate, discomfort while urinating, howling or crying while urinating, tinkling anywhere and everywhere (very small puddles), and discolored urine (indicating blood in the urine).
