Why does my cat's urine smell yeasty and strong after giving birth?

Hello and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Sometimes it may be normal for a kittens urine to have a stronger odor especially if the urine is very concentrated. You may want to try feeding an all canned diet with water mixed in to help reduce the urine concentration. However, sometimes a UTI can cause a change in urine odor. As long as Beasty is using the litter box normally and not having urinary accidents or going urinating small amounts frequently, I would be less concerned about a UTI. However, if changes in her urination habits occur (like straining to urinate, frequent urination, crying while urinating) or if she stops eating or drinking or becomes lethargic it would be a good idea to schedule a vet visit. Also, if the urine odor persists you may want to bring a sample to your veterinarian to have it evaluated. I hope this is helpful!

That's very kind of you to take in this stray cat! This peeing on the bed can be a sign of a medical illness, such as a UTI or bladder stone. I would recommend taking your girl into your vet tomorrow for an exam. Your vet can do routine blood tests and a urinalysis to see if she does have a UTI or bladder stones. If she has a UTI, she will need antibiotics to treat it. Bladder stones may need to be removed surgically, or can be managed with diet.

It's possible the diet change and medication could cause the urine to change some. I would give it a few days as long as they aren't showing any other signs of illness, and make sure they are eating and drinking enough. If the problem persists, worsens, or other symptoms appear, a vet visit to rule out any other issues is best.

It can be very difficult to know if inappropriate urination is due to a medical condition or not. I would recommend seeing a veterinarian to help rule out a medical problem first. While the urine test strips are the same, veterinarians will typically also perform a urine sediment exam. Veterinarians will also typically obtain a sterile urine sample directly from the bladder via cystocentesis.

Hi. It could be possible that Stink has a urinary tract infection. If she is urinating.outside the box as well, that could be a sign of a urimary tract infection or stress as well. I recommend contacting your veterinarian to schedule an exam and a urinalysis as well to start. It will provide alot of information and help.guide us to the probable diagnosis.

The longer he holds his urine the darker in color and stronger odor it can have. Also if he dehydrated it has potential to make the urine a little darker. Since he has issues with a litter box, I would have his urine checked for a UTI or crystals to see if that is complicating the situation and causing some of these problems. You can also add canned food to make sure he is getting plenty of fluids

Oh no, poor kitty! Peeing blood could be due to a UTI or bladder stones. Unfortunately, there's nothing at home you can give her, she needs to see a vet as soon as possible for this. Fixing a UTI or bladder stones requires medications that can only be gotten from the vet. Given that she is a stray, I would see if there is an animal shelter or an animal charity in your area that can help you with her.
