my cat wont pee in the box

Question
QUESTION: yesterday I've noticed no pee in the box when I cleaned it.I watched the cat this morning and he peed on the floor next to the box while he was in the box.When he comes out of the box he scoots on the floor and is constantly licking himself. I took him to the vet yesterday and all they did was give him fluids. He didn't pee all day until 11:30 last night. I'm very worried. What should I do next?

ANSWER: Hi Kim - yes, I can help.  What did your vet say was wrong?  Was the cat dehydrated?  Was there an Urinary infection noted?  How old is this cat?  Let me know and I will come up with a plan for you two.

QUESTION: The vet didn't do any tests. Didn't say anything except "lets fill him up so he will pee". He just turned 5. I give him wet food 2x day and 1/4 cup dry when I come home from work. I also give him a small amount of milk 2-3x week for the extra fluids. He is still not acting like himself(not asking for food) and he is still scooting and licking his privates alot every time he goes in the box.
