I am sorry to hear that Dynasty isn’t feeling well. Pet insurance can be helpful, but most people don’t have it. I would encourage you to call your local emergency veterinarian and get prices for an examination and possibly blood work and X-rays. This way you are prepared for about how much it Might cost to find out what may be wrong. Any older unspayed female is a concern for a pyometra, which is a pus filled infected uterus, but certainly there are other possible causes. From there the veterinarian can discuss what they would recommend. Best of luck and I hope she improves soon. Thank you for using Pet Coach.
