This may seem like a strange question, but, do birds pee?

We've all seen birdpoop and occasionally get to watch them do it:) But never seen a bird pee - is that waste just included in the poop?

    Heh, well, since you asked, I used to wonder the same thing. The white of bird 'poop' is their 'pee' . In humans or urine comes from our excretory system: kidneys>bladder>urethra, its metabolic (cellular) waist diluted with salts and water. Birds have to keep themselves very light to keep flying and water is heavy, the result is an excretory system that requires very little watter (so they don't have to intake water just to lose it) and produces the white uric acid. Because birds have a cloaca (an all purpose hole for excretion, deification, and reproduction) they often drop their fecal matter with their excretion and that consitutes the darker waist in what is commonly reffered to as 'bird poop'.

    If your cat has a UTI there aren't regularly indicators till it reaches a extra valuable level. In addition his anal glands is also impacted and the vet can do each- Check for a UTI and specific the glands If he isn't neutered, get It performed to preclude testicular melanoma. Some cats will urinate on apparel in the event that they uncover it at the flooring, so decide upon them up. Change your bedding to anything new so he does not scent the urine. Even if washed the odor can stay. Watch him intently and if he begins to urinate anyplace instead of the field , grasp him and positioned him within the muddle. Keep doing this to get him again to his historic self. Remember the vet investigate first

    birds do not pee in the same way that humans do.

    humans have two separate body systems and ways of disposing liquid and solid wastes but birds do not. All of their waste comes out at the same time in a mixture of liquid and solid that we call bird poo.

    Both kinds of waste are together, since they come out the same hole. What hilda is referring to may have been a lorikeet; their droppings are very watery due to their liquid diets (they eat nectar).
