My cat peed with crystals. Is this a serious health concern?

Question

Hi, this morning I found that my cat has peed on the floor (she’s never done this before) but it would appear that it has some sort of fine granules/crystals in it. She’s still her vocal and energetic self; no change in behaviour, but is this cause for concern? Thanks. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 5 years and 10 months old | 11 lbs

Have her seen by your veterinarian. A urine sample can be collected and submitted for urinalysis. Crystals in the urine can cause inflammation or infection. Enough crystals may form kidney or bladder stones. Depending on the type of crystals, a diet change or medication may be needed. https://www.petcoach.co/cat/condition/urine-crystals-and-bladder-stones/
