I recommend calling your veterinarian in the morning and scheduling an appointment to have her looked at. There could be a few different reasons for blood in the urine. She can have a urinary tract infection, bladder stones, a kidney issue or even a bladder mass. I would recommend bringing a urine sample to have them evaluate it and see if Trinity has a urinary tract infection. I would also consider having x-rays performed to potentially look for bladder stones. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
