Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 5 months and 4 days old | 5 lbs
My cat’s “red rocket” has come out while grooming twice now. No female cats are present. Is this normal? I have read he could have a urinary obstruction.

It can be normal, though most people don't notice it. If Mosey seems uncomfortable, is having trouble urinating, or he can't retract his penis, seeking vet care is best. If he can't urinate at all or is in severe distress this could indicate a blockage which is a medical emergency.
