This may be an emergency. Male cats can get a urinary tract obstruction which is life threatening. If he is straining to urinate with no output or just dribbling, he should be seen immediately. Pain is another indicator. I would recommend that you take him to the closest emergency clinic right away. If he cannot urinate, you should not wait until tomorrow.
