He’s about 4 years old and all of a sudden is not using the litter box like he always has.
Symptoms of UTI’s in cats include urinating frequently (i mean ALOT) squatting multiple times and nothing comes out, blood in the urine. crying when urinating, and being lethargic. NO there are no home remedies, for one thing you dont even know if it is a UTI. Take the cat to the vet and find out what is wrong with him. At least do it for the cat. There can be a ton of reasons why the cat is not using the bathroom. Just take him to the vet and tell the vet you dont want to spend a lot of money on the cat and usually the vet can work with you. In a lot of cases if the vet also suspects a UTI then they will just send you home with some cheap antibiotics. Just dont be stupid and try “homeopathic remedies” b/c they dont work and untreated UTI’s in male cats can lead to FAR worse problems. So please take the cat to the vet!

Attention Ladies, this is Suzi, many people have been writing in asking what the stuff was that I used to clear up my UTI last week, so I wanted to put the link to this stuff here
It is called CT - DM 
The most common cause of feline urinary tract disorders is urolithiasis, a condition where stones are formed from accumulation of crystals in the urinary tract. This condition can be sever and result in complete blockage of urinary tract and prevent urination totally.
Most cats urinate the most at night when they are most active. The first sign of your cat having urinary tract infection is when it starts having litter box problems. The “litter” in the word “litter box” actually denotes fecal matter and not the substrate that pet owners line the box with.
Cats are very tolerant to pain and will eat, purr, and snuggle to attraction your attention even while in pain. This behavioral pattern makes is all the more difficult as these could be demonstrations of out-of-cat-litter-box experiences signaling feline UTI. It is up to you to determine whether your cat has UTI or not. For this a fair understanding of the UTI symptoms in cats is necessary.
To determine whether your pet cat has urinary tract infection or not, check out the following symptoms:
Pain while urinating, frequent urination, small or no urine at all, are among the first signs to look for.
Excessive grooming of genitals, crying while doing it and blood in urine are almost certain symptom of urinary infection in cats and dogs.
If your cat has stopped using its litter box and urinates outside of it, you can suspect presence of UTI.
As urination becomes a painful exercise your cat will start associating it with the litter box and try to avoid it and urinate outside of it. If it does so, on a light colored surface, you can look for traces of blood and seek help for treating the disorder.
Medication for feline UTI is not very difficult to access. There are more than one options open to you. You may try homeopathic bladder infection treatment for canines and cats, or go in for herbal and natural remedies in case you do not want your pet cat to go through a course of strong antibiotics, which can have dangerous side effects.

UTI’s can kill a male cat if he gets blocked and cannot pee.
Frequent trips to the litter pan with little or no pee is the classic sign of UTI’s. Also peeing in other places can indicate UTI. You cannot home treat a cat – he must see a vet now – not later.
