I would recommend taking Gidget (and a sample of her urine if you can get it) in to be evaluated by your veterinarian. Blood in the urine is often indicative of a urinary tract infection and/or bladder stones. If left untreated the infection can become worse and difficult to clear up. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Gidget should be examined by your veterinarian. A sterile urine sample can be collected and submitted for urinalysis and culture to definitively diagnose any infection. It is possible you caught a urinary tract infection early but your vet will need to confirm this.
