Is my unneutered cat's litter box yowling due to UTI or spraying?

Question

I can't afford to pay for a vet until July 1st (10 days away). My cat Merlin is yowling at his litter box. He has not been nutured yet and has started spraying. But I am worried because I don't know how to tell if he has a UTI or is just lonely and spraying. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 5 months and 21 days old | 15 lbs

Yowling at the box and trying to go potty or dribbling/only going a little is very concerning. While it could be hormone/spraying related, I would be worried there is a severe UTI or even a blockage that requires treatment if he is constantly vocalizing at the box or going to it very often. If you're having trouble affording care, this site can help give you some options to make it more affordable so Merlin can get help sooner: https://www.humanesociety.org/resources/having-trouble-affording-veterinary-care
