If Molly has recently started peeing in the bed when she was previously housebroken, then I would take her into the vet today for an exam. She may have a UTI or bladder stones. The vet can do routine blood tests and a urinalysis to see if she does have a UTI or bladder stones, and can treat accordingly.
