What is blood in cat urine?

Refers to the excess of red blood cells in the cat's urine. Normally, there are no red blood cells in the urine.

The eye can see that the urine is bloody and pink, and even there are blood streaks or blood clots in the urine, which is called gross hematuria.

If only red blood cells are detected under a microscope and blood is not visible to the eye, it is called microscopic hematuria.

Due to the physiological structure of cats, blood in the urine is usually caused by problems in the lower urinary system. The common ** are as follows:

Idiopathic cystitis (high incidence).

The incidence is about 80%. It is caused by the bladder itself, stress pressure, and internal and external environment.

Urinary stones, obstructions.

Frequent urination: Sick cats often feel the urge to urinate frequently, even with only a small amount of urine. This is because when the bladder is stimulated, its wall muscles are in a state of excitement, which increases the pressure on urine storage, causing the cat to have a feeling of frequent urination, regardless of whether there is urine in the bladder.
