Hi

I understand your concerns about the pink colour you noticed. Pink urine can be caused by:

Beets, blackberries, or certain food colorings
Hemolytic anemia
Injury to the kidneys or urinary tract
Medication
Porphyria
Urinary tract disorders that cause bleeding

So, I would recommend you to go for a proper urine routine and microscopic examination to rule out any blood or RBC. If it's normal then there is nothing to worry. Just give plenty of water every day to keep him well hydrated and avoid dehydration.

HOPEFULLY THIS WILL BE HELPFUL.

Take care
