Hi!
Lately, we’ve been having trouble with our three year old cat. He’s been urinating on our carpet at first we thought maybe he didn’t like the litter boxes/too many cats were using them (we have four total) so we switched to the Breeze litter boxes which we like a lot better (the ones with pellets).
But that hasn’t worked and he’s still peeing on the carpet! Today I also noticed he seemed to be straining a little as he went.
So, to the vet we go. But I’m wondering if anyone knows what this might be and how they’ll go about figuring it out. I’m assuming it’s some sort of feline UTI? Will they need to get a urine sample (via catheter or something??) and how much should I be expecting to pay? Obviously we want him to be healthy but I just want to know what to expect going into the vet!
