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.

What causes feces to smell like metal?
Feces is one of the most noxious smelling substances known to man. It gets it's unpleasant odor from all the bacteria attached to it. Furthermore, evolutionists believe that feces smells so that humans know to keep away from it, and that that trait evolved in humans. Due to the multifaceted eminences produced from an even greater number of Types of Bacteria. It's fermented waste, and the cells of rotting things release an enzyme that stinks. The faeces that you excrete through your anus from the rectum may give of a bad smell due to the unwanted nutrients that are within the faeces. Unwanted products such as plant fibres is what makes the smell. It's what you eat, so watch what you eat because it can cause constipation and also diarrhea. It can and depends on what food are ingested. Stool is made up of undigested food, bacteria, mucus and dead cells. The trillions of microorganisms that live in your gut (and the guts of other animals) produce a number of sulfurous compounds (especially Methanethiol) that pass out of the body along with the feces and give it its characteristic odor. Scientists have noted a number of things that almost universally elicit disgust among humans: bodily wastes and fluids, wounds, dead bodies, certain animals, spoiled food, and people with poor hygiene. All of these relate to a risk of exposure to infections - so since feces tend to have elements of all these we seem to have developed an aversion to the smell (think it stinks) as a defense mechanism to avoid infection.
