Poor Mimi! She could have some internal injury and bleeding going on. It is possible if she is not urinating that she may have a ruptured bladder. If possible, she needs to have Xrays taken of her abdomen at a vet clinic to see if there is internal bleeding and damage. If so, she may need to have surgery. If this is not possible, she needs to be on antibiotics and pain medication at a bare minimum. Hope that helps!
