Thanks for reaching out about Popo and including photos. This sounds as if she is not eating (therefore no feces) and drinking more water (more urine). This is called polyuria. Kidney or liver problems, ingested foreign bodies, pain, hormonal problems are just a few of the possibilities. A veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Providing heat support in the 80-85 F range can give some comfort. Not sure which antibiotic this is but unlikely this is caused by a gastrointestinal infection. Good luck.
