Male Cat w/ possible crystals

Hello there! It sounds like you're concerned about your kitty possibly having urinary crystals, which is a common issue for male cats. These crystals can form in the bladder and cause discomfort or even a blockage, so it’s great that you're paying attention to this.



In many cases, you might notice your cat straining to urinate, meowing while trying to go, or visiting the litter box more frequently. These behaviors can be signs of discomfort. Sometimes, you might see small amounts of urine or even blood within it, which could suggest crystals are present.



Creating an environment that encourages a healthy urinary tract for your cat involves providing plenty of fresh water daily—considering a pet water fountain might entice him to drink more. Ensuring you have more than one litter box in different areas of your home can also help reduce stress.



Keep an eye out for any further changes, like complete inability to urinate, vomiting, or lethargy, as these can indicate a more serious obstruction that requires immediate veterinary attention.



If you notice these symptoms persisting or worsening, it’s best to consult with a professional as soon as possible. I encourage you to book a video consult with Dial A Vet so we can give your furry friend the best care and peace of mind for you.
