I am not sure what you mean by "the urine is covering the poo". Did he not have a separate urate attached to the poop? Sometimes there will be a gel like coating over the poop and that is ok. If he is not eating much, it is always a good idea to get a fecal done. Don't wait too long though, the fresher the poop the better. If you are going to get a fecal done, make sure you store it in the fridge so it does not dry out.

the poo is not separate ,its covering the poo ,I saved the sample this morning and put it in the fridge ,,, looking for a vet close to me , the vet that the pet shop use is over 100 miles away and would like to use them but a little too far, is there any kits you can buy to do fecal yourself ??? thanks for the help

Just in case Marley decides this one day to not be so regular, put Monday's in a plastic bag in the fridge. Also, put Tuesday's in the fridge until you go to the vet. The fresher the better.
