Why do cats get urethritis?

Many cats have urethritis. The causes of urethritis include bacterial infection, cystitis, urinary syndrome, urinary stones, etc. Endocrine disorders may also cause urethritis when cats are in a bad mood or are frightened, and sampling is required. Laboratory tests determine the specific cause. Feline urethritis is a very common disease and can easily relapse, so you need to pay more attention to it in daily life, let the cat drink more water, keep the environment clean and sanitary, avoid bacterial infection, and have regular physical examinations to detect and treat it in time.
