Cat has possible tumor on bladder

Thanks for reaching out with your concern about your cat. It's understandable to be worried if you suspect a tumor on your cat's bladder. Let's break it down so you feel informed and prepared.



Bladder tumors in cats can manifest as frequent urination, blood in the urine, or straining to urinate. While tumors can be benign (non-cancerous), there are cases where they could be malignant (cancerous). It's also worth noting that these symptoms can sometimes be related to urinary tract infections or bladder stones.



At home, ensure your cat has easy access to fresh water and a litter box. Encouraging hydration can help maintain a healthy urinary system. Also, monitor your cat's ability to urinate comfortably and watch for any signs of pain or distress.



Be on the lookout for indicators of more serious issues: if your cat stops urinating, shows signs of severe discomfort, or if there is a noticeable change in appetite or energy levels, these could be signals to seek immediate veterinary care.
