Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I think that if he urinates 2 more times or more, that means that he is urinating more frequently which would warrant an evaluation by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Urinary signs like this can be observed with something like a urinary tract infection, urinary tract stones, among other possibilities. If he is still able to pass urine and does not seem in discomfort, you could probably wait until Monday. If he is unable to urinate or appears to be in discomfort, he should be evaluated by an emergency veterinarian before Monday. Good luck and have a great day! I hope he is just fine.
