He loves to pee in the bathroom sink. I don't know why but that is just what he does. I caught him in the act this morning and just stood in the hallway waiting so I could rinse out the sink when he finished. Over a minute later I walked up to him and there was nothing coming out. I scooted him out of there and then he jumped into the tub (his favorite place) and started licking his parts *down there*. It went on for like 10 minutes. I had to get him out of THERE and stop him from continuing to go after that area. I suspect that he has urinary crystals or a blockage. He is still active, eating, drinking, running around, etc. It didn't seem like a massive Sunday triple cost emergency this morning and it still doesn't. I am keeping an eye on him. If he starts to act lethargic then I will take him up to the 24 hour emergency veterinary hospital an hour north. I hope it is just crystals and he doesn't require surgery. Hey I hope it is just him being a punk and peeing just fine. We shall see.

When cats use other places other than the litter box, it's a sign of pain. With luck this is a UTI or as you said crystals and he can be treated. If it's been a while, I doubt he'll crash over night. Hope he gets better.

I guess at least it's in the sink and not on a rug.
