Thank you for submitting your question regarding Kiwi. I recommend that she see her veterinarian ti ensure that she does not have a medical problem. A urine sample will be tested to look for evidence of an infection, bladder stones or even diabetes. If she does not seem to have a medical issue, behavioral modifications can be made. I hope this information helps!
