Pet's info: Cat | British Shorthair | Male | neutered | 1 year and 4 months old
Hi my male cat is 1 year and a half old. He's recently came back from a cattery as we went away for a weekend. Since coming back he is crying a lot more into thin air not even at people. He's also in and out of his toilet a lot and sometimes isn't actually using it for proper reasons. He's a complete different cat. He's eating and drinking as normal but I'm so worried. What should we do

I would take Toby into the vet today. It sounds like from your description that he may have a UTI or bladder stones (frequently use of the litter box, vocalization). The vet can do routine blood tests and a urinalysis to see if he does have a UTI or bladder stones. If he has a UTI, he will need antibiotics to treat it. Bladder stones may need to be removed surgically, or can be managed with diet.
