Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If Sassy is acting fine then I wouldn't be too concerned. If the stool is hard then it could be from constipation. Constipation is a symptom of something else like kidney or intestinal disease. If Sassy is not acting fine then I would have her evaluated by a Vet I hope this helps!
