This could indicate renal issues/kidney disease. Leo needs to have an analysis done of his urine to check further for any signs of infection as well as to make sure he's not dehydrated and causing the signs. If it is early renal disease there are certain steps we can take to manage it. This could include medication to control blood pressure, a diet change, or even giving him fluids therapy. He may need medications to protect his stomach from ulcers. I recommend discussing these options with your veterinarian as well as any additional testing such as an ultrasound of his kidneys and liver.
