Causes of urinary incontinence in cats:

1. It may be that the cat has severe bladder stones or inflammation, which causes the cat’s urethra to be irritated and urinate.

2. It may also be caused by spasm of the cat's urethral sphincter, which causes the cat's muscles to be uncontrolled and urinate at any time.

3. It may also be caused by the cat’s severe stress reaction after being frightened.

4. It is also possible that when a cat is infected by a virus, it may cause urinary incontinence due to neurological abnormalities caused by the virus.

5. It is also possible that cats will urinate frequently to attract the opposite sex during the estrus period, causing urinary incontinence.

Solutions to cat urinary incontinence:

1. If it is caused by urethral spasm or neurological problems, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

2. If it is caused by urinary system disease, you can give the cat anti-inflammatory drugs. If there are stones, you should help the cat expel the stones in time to solve the problem.

3. If it is caused by stress reaction, you should stay with the cat more, calm the cat’s mood, and wait for the cat to recover on its own.

4. If it is caused by estrus, you can breed the cat or take the cat for sterilization.
