MALE URINARY BLOCKAGE: Both male AND female cats can get Urinary Blockages. It is more common in male cats. Males can tend to be on the needy side with their love and devotion to their humans. This can sometimes lead to stress if their routines or environment goes thru rapid or frequent changes. IE: don't adopt a male cat then go on vacation soon afterward. In the male cat stress can present itself in the form of Urinary Blockages. If you are going to go on vacation at some point by all means do it BUT make sure you are leaving your cat with someone they feel comfortable with. Would you leave your human child with someone they never met before?? IF you have a male that is on the needy or nervous side learn what triggers his anxiety. It will make a huge difference if you ever have to take the cat to the vet for any mystery behavior or illness.
UPDATE 12/2/2024: I recently had a California client who's male popped with a Urinary blockage. The vet stated that he had seen a more than normal amount of these cases lately so he consulted with several of his associates on the West Coast. The result was that since this cat was not suffering from any stress issues that could have brought this on it was most likely a dietary factor. The cat eats dry food which all vets will tell you is fine to feed cats until its not (Vague right?!). Meaning that dry food is a convenience for us humans so that the cat has food to munch on if we humans are not home at dinner time for them to get their required meat in their diet. Most cats can live their whole lives on just a dry food diet. I don't recommend it. The Vets determined the main culprit was most probably hard tap water. California and Arizona have terrible hard water as well as other issues with it such as Fluoride. When we moved to AZ we were told that Kingman had the worst water in the whole state. So we got a mega triple duty filtration system. Our oldest cat is a 15 year old male and he does eat dry & wet food daily. He has never had any blockage issues. The only thing I can say is that the filtration softener system is probably why we haven't had any issues. So my recommendation is to use filtered water or bottled Purified water for all cats!!! A water softener system is even better to prevent the crystallization factors. NEVER use Distilled as there are no nutrients in that water type.
