Unfortunately you can't treat this over the counter. Urinary tract infections are painful and require antibiotics. Pets can also have crystals in the urine, cystitis and bladder stones which have the same symptoms as infections but there is no infection. Hazel is likely in pain. Have her examined today by the veterinarian.
