When going to change the guinea pigs cage tonight, I found a few bloody spots scattered throughout the cage. I think we have figured out which one it is. We cleaned the bedding and also put a little bit of cranberry juice in their water. The one that we think it is just peed and she squealed a little bit when she did pee and I checked it right after and there was a little blood on the bedding. The blood is red, but it's sort of diluted. Can you please give us some advice?

It sounds as though poor Coco has a urinary tract infection. This is typically caused by bacteria overgrowth and Coco will require antibiotic treatment. I would suggest contacting your local veterinarian that is skilled in treating guinea pigs to set up an appointment.

Blood in the urine may be a sign of bladder stones or an urinary tract infection. Make sure Coco stays well hydrated until her appointment tomorrow. You can entice her with veggies and fruits that have a high moisture content.
