My cat had a blockage and was unable to urinate. He was put under general and treated flushed several times. Urinalysis showed struvite crystals. He is currently urinating but it's not a good stream is this normal after having this procedure done?

Yes, the infection and the spasms can continue for a few days after this is done. The important part is that he passing urine! But he needs to be monitored closely as he can still block again until the stream is good.
