If urine smells like feces, it is important to rule out the presence of a fistula. A fistula is an abnormal channel between two hollow organs. In this case, the fistula might be open to the colon at one end and the bladder at the other. This is actually not terribly rare. If this sort of fistula is present, small amounts of fecal material actually find their way into the bladder and are expelled with the urine when the patient urinates. Of course, it is also possible that the urine just has a funny smell. The causes of odd-smelling urine are many, and include things like urinary tract infection, something you ate (e.g. asparagus), dehydration, etc. Regardless, if you believe your urine has a fecal odor, you should see your doctor as soon as possible to rule out the bad stuff.

Your urine is smelly because it's disgusting and don't do it anymore. Don't drink anymore either. It's unhealthy. Oh, and when you fart make sure it's not green or that would be bad and embarrassing. Silent but deadly.

Its not supposed to be too smelly. However, it does contain metabolic waste products. You should drink more water.

E. coli is the most common cause of urinary tract infections. If you think your urine smells like feces, it's likely that you have bacteria growing there. Contact your health care provider for advice.

it doesn't at the start because fresh urine is cleaner than sweat and spit but it attracts batceria very soon after leaving the body and that makes it smell bad.

It is because both exit the body from the same general area. The remaining odor of the urine is mixed with the odor of the feces.

They are more smelly when you haven't had much to drink. The bacteria that is in your digestive tract also add to the normal odor.
