Thanks for reaching out about Tweety. Could she be trying to pass an egg and is egg-bound? Otherwise, a gastrointestinal foreign body, cloacal prolapse or other condition is possible. A veterinary visit is highly recommended, as soon as possible. Providing heat support can help, in the range of 80-85 F but is not a cure. Good luck.
