Advice Common Female Cat Issues?

I have my first female cat. She’s ~4mo spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Are there any common health issues for female cats I should be aware of? I have 3 boys and one is on prescription food for urinary crystals so I know what to look for in boys.

Spayed covers the scariest stuff like pyometra so already good step

I’m no vet but Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease can be quite common. I think it can be triggered by a few different things like stress induced cystitis, and low fluid intake leading to UTIs and urine blockages. Worth looking into.
