Concerned about my cat's thick urine and litter box accidents?

Question

My 8 year-old female cat's urine seems thick and gooey in her litter box, and she sometimes pees and/or poops just outside the litter box. Anything to be concerned about? Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 14.75 lbs

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Ginger! The urine shouldn't be thick or gooey. I would have her seen by your Vet and bring a urine sample. I would want to check to see if she has a urinary tract infection, crystals in her urine or a bladder stone. I wouldn't ignore the urine. I wish Ginger the best!
