Frequent urination and small amounts of urine in cats

Frequent urination and small amounts of urine in cats may be caused by excessive water intake, urethritis, cystitis, glomerulonephritis, and other reasons. First of all, if the frequent urination is caused by excessive water intake, it is a normal phenomenon, and owners generally do not need to worry too much. If the abnormal frequent urination is accompanied by other uncomfortable symptoms, such as renal pain, urinary pain, etc., it is recommended that owners take their cats to a regular hospital in time for diagnosis and further treatment. Otherwise, it is easy to affect the body's recovery.

Excessive water intake

If a cat drinks too much water, it will accelerate the rate of metabolism in the body, thereby increasing the frequency of urination, but each time it only urinates a little. This is a normal physiological response and generally does not require drug treatment.

Urethritis

Usually caused by gonococcal or non-gonococcal infection, it manifests as symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and urinary pain. As the disease progresses, the frequency of urination increases, but the amount of urine gradually decreases. It is recommended that owners give their cats antibiotic treatment under the guidance of a doctor. With medication, the disease can be controlled, and the damage to the body can be minimized.

Cystitis

Mainly caused by bacterial infection, it leads to inflammation of the bladder area, gradually reducing the bladder capacity and causing frequent urination. Untreated, the condition may worsen, leading to urinary difficulties, hematuria, and other symptoms. It is recommended that owners take their cats to a regular hospital in time for intravenous administration of antibiotic treatment to control bacterial reproduction and minimize damage to the bladder.

Glomerulonephritis

It causes renal function damage, affects the normal operation of the body, and can also lead to frequent urination and low urine output. Untreated, it may cause hematuria. It is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and take antibiotics and diuretic drugs to improve the condition.
