The cat always uses the litter box but there's nothing in it
There was a situation of licking the genitals before. Last night, it defecated at the door once and near the litter box once. Today, it seems to be in a bad state and always lies down in the corner or inside the cabinet. It used to be on the bed. Will it be life-threatening within one day?
It doesn't eat the canned fish that was fed to it anymore. It used to like it very much. How is it treated if going to the hospital? How much is the cost approximately? It started yesterday morning. I thought it just had an upset stomach. I found a problem at night. Will a one-day delay endanger its life?

It is possible that a cat frequently goes to the toilet but produces nothing for various reasons. Firstly, it might be due to problems in the urinary system, such as idiopathic cystitis, urinary tract infection, urolithiasis, etc. Urinary system diseases are relatively common in cats, especially male cats whose urethra is slender and prone to blockage, resulting in difficulty in urination.
It is also possible that the cat has constipation. If the pet owner feeds the cat too dry, hard and greasy cat food daily, combined with the cat's weak intestinal digestive capacity, constipation is likely to occur. Besides, the lack of beneficial bacteria in the cat's intestines and poor intestinal peristalsis, which make the cat unable to digest the food properly, can also lead to constipation. Cats that have long-term indigestion from eating dry food and don't like to drink water are also prone to constipation.
The cat's frequent visits to the toilet without excretion might also be a stress response, such as a sudden change in the environment or being frightened.
In addition, if the cat has not expelled hairballs for a long time and has trichobezoars, the hairballs will clog the cat's intestines, affect the cat's digestive system and cause this situation.
If the cat's diet is too salty, or if it is in the estrus or pregnancy period, similar situations may also occur. In this case, the pet owner should pay attention to adjusting the cat's diet, give the cat more water, supplement probiotics, help the cat massage its belly, increase its exercise, improve its living environment and reduce stress. If the cat's condition does not improve or worsens, it is recommended to take the cat to the veterinary hospital for examination and treatment in time.
