This is something I have NEVER experienced before (nor anyone I know) so I don't even know what to begin to think.
Tasha's background:
Spayed at 10 weeks old (so of course has never been in heat)
Never had any serious health issues, had a short bout of some GI infection after eating tainted meat.
Now she's about 4 years old and has never had any sort of UTIs.
I do not know everything she eats as I know my dad sneaks her food from the kitchen whenever he can.
Father also takes some heavy medications she may or may not have gotten into to cause this.
What I've noticed:
Early this morning she peed on the floor in my bedroom, this is more or less unusual (she sometimes pees in the house as she refuses to go outside in the morning
![]()
This is not a health issue, I am sure of it) . As hurried as I was to get her outside, I did not notice any straining or blood or otherwise discomfort. Once she went outside she sat next to the door while I cleaned up the mess. She did not 'go' again.
A few hours later (still early morning), she threw up yellow bile in my room twice (plain yellow bile, no blood, nothing out of the ordinary in it). I managed to rush her outside again, this time, before I pulled out the roll of paper towels, I noticed her straining to pee. It took her a LONG time and all I saw was a few drops of dark liquid. I checked it after she was done but I couldn't see any blood. I took a mental note to keep a close eye.
Nothing since then up until a few minutes ago which prompted me to write this. My dad saw her go out a couple of times but saw nothing unusual (not reliable information so I'm taking it with a grain of salt).
A few minutes ago she peed in front of the sliding glass door. The urine itself was dark and there was a spot of blood in the middle. Cleaning this up I noticed it was not completely liquid, it had the consistency of watery egg whites. (Sorry, TMI, but I want to give the information I feel is necessary)
I don't even know where to start with what it could be. I know it's likely some sort of UTI but I can't be sure.
Any and all help is appreciated. I expect to call the vet sometime today but I like to get second opinions.
