Help needed. We recently took in a stray cat. He is about 8 months old. We assume he has been neutered before he came to us. (actually he invited himself in) because one of his ears has been clipped. He has been checked by our vet and vaccinated. The vet said the cat (Hunter) was healthy. He is very active and very people friendly. The problem is that while he uses the litter box to defecate and may use it to urinate(hard to tell because there are two other cats in the household) he seems to leak urine at various times mostly in little amounts. He doesn't appear in pain or unhealthy in any way. To the contrary he is a ball of energy and is almost absurdly athletic even for a cat. When he leaks he isn't attempting to urinate. We thought this was because he was an outdoor cat and therefore urinated at will wherever he was but it is becoming a concern. If he were a human and much older I would think he was having stress incontinence. The urine has no special odor and he doesn't have any unusual discharges and doesn't lick himself. We are wondering if something happened during his neutering although it doesn't seem that this should have created a problem. I have researched your articles as well as many other sites and nothing seems to fit. Before I take Hunter back to a new Vet and put him through a bunch of tests to see what the first Vet missed, I was hoping to get some idea what might be the problem. Please help. I have done more research and that has raised the issue of stress. Hunter was an outdoor cat and is now a house cat. He does the most amusing things to keep his hunting (hence the name Hunter) skills sharp. He gets lots of attention that he soaks up and has lots of toys including humans he uses for chew toys. anmd two other cats It's been 4 months so I thought that if stress was the cause he would have adjusted.
