Why is my cat losing weight, not eating, and peeing inappropriately?

Hey sir my cat is eating very less and became half smaller than before. Also when he started this behaviour he also started pissing on my bed, sofa and washed dressed kept for drying. Please help he was very good litter trained before and ate a lot before. Pet's info: Cat | Turkish Van | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 6 months old

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Billu! I am concerned that Billu may have something metabolic going on that is causing him to not eat and lose weight. There are metabolic conditions that cause a cat o drink and urinate more. I recommend taking him to the Vet for an exam and blood work. A lot of the conditions that cause his symptoms can be diagnosed on blood work and urine. Possible causes are: kidney failure, diabetes, liver disease, increased calcium, cancer, intestinal disease (inflammatory bowel disease), urinary tract infection, bladder stones, crystals in the urine. I recommend ruling out medical causes before assuming his inappropriate urination is behavioral. I hope this helps and I wish you and Billu the best!
