It could be Lola injured herself causing the bleeding. As for gaining weight, if she is allowed outside, she may be going to other homes getting fed there as well, leading to weight gain. Check her thoroughly to see if you can find the source of the bleeding. If you find a deep cut, you will need to take her into the vet to get it treated. As for the weight gain, you can keep her indoors all the time and feed her a measured amount of food, and that should help her lose weight. If she still goes outside, then it's going to be hard to get the weight off because you can't keep track of everywhere she goes. Best of luck.
