Later that night he started to scream and threw up.the next day he was in the house all day and did not go do his business (we dont have a litter box anymore he doesn't really like it) Its been 2 days since then and he is acting normal. We are feeding him a little less but other than that he has been drinking normal. He is still playful and being normal. We feed him meow mix ive been told that fish based food is not good for him.

If you suspect your cat has a urinary tract infection, take him to the vet right away. A male cat's urethra can become plugged, meaning the cat becomes unable to urinate, which is a life threatening situation.
Cat Urinary Tract Infection Symptoms
Symptoms are due to inflammation of the bladder. They effect the way your cat urinates including:
•Too much frequency (pollakiuria)
•Excess volume
•Pain
•Difficulty (dysuria)
•Slow (stranguria)
•Blood in the Urine (hematuria)
•Urination outside the litter box
If your cat has a urinary tract infection there may or may not be symptoms (asymptomatic). Symptoms if they appear will be some of those listed above.
