Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Jimmy! If Jimmy has been having 1 month of bloody vaginal discharge then I do not think she is in heat. I would have her examined by a Vet to see if she has an infected uterus (pyometra). An infected uterus should be removed. I hope this helps and I wish Jimmy the very best!
