Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question. Blood in the urine can be a sign of a UTI, bladder stones, or a disease such as leptospirosis. If she appears otherwise healthy and happy, eats and drinks plenty, you can wait until tomorrow morning to see a vet. If she appears lethargic, ill or distressed, or if the urine appears very bloody, then she should be seen by a vet ASAP. Feed her wet/canned food, add water to it, and make sure she drinks a lot of water to help flush the bladder. Best of luck.
