Hello, and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I really can't tell from one single urination if Kiwi is urinating a normal amount, since the total urine output in a 24 hour period is what matters. However, if your perception is she's urinating more, then this always warrants evaluation by a vet, since conditions that lead to increased urine production can include diabetes, kidney disease, Cushings disease, etc. Your vet will want to look at a urine sample, and likely a blood sample, to determine why Kiwi's urinary habits have changed. Hope this helps!
