I'm glad that Oreo is still feeling normal and eating and drinking. If this has continued, please take her to your vet. Take a stool sample with you, as your vet may want to check for parasites. You can try a probiotic at home; if she has a little bit of colitis (inflammation in her colon), this may help. Thanks for asking PetCoach!
