Yes, this sounds like he’s in pain. He may have a bite wound you can’t see, or he could have a urinary obstruction. Just to be safe I recommend a veterinary exam right away. If it’s due to infection then they will treat him with antibiotics. If he has a urinary obstruction that can quickly become life threatening. A urinary blockage can cause kidney damage, and death in a day or two without treatment. It is a common emergency in male cats, so please bring him in today. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Tumbles.
