Woody going to the vet :(

[Jen]

A few hours ago Woody had a little bit of blood in his urine He's going to the vet first thing in the morning.

I should clarify it was kind of watery rusty blood and not bright red blood or I would have brought him in right away as an emergency

My guess is it's a mild bladder infection. He only had it in the one pee and has peed a bunch of times since and all were normal looking. He's also acting totally normal.

I'll let you know how it goes

aww poor little man yeah sounds like a water infection doesnt it.

Let us know how he gets on Jen

[Jen]

Well he does have a mild bladder infection. From 1 to 4 with 4 being the worst, the vet said he's a 1. The vet also said he didn't see any crystals in his urine so it's highly unlikely he has a stone.

He's on an antibiotic for two weeks.

Oh and we think he might have gotten it by eating poop and then licking his hoo hoo The e coli could have traveled up the urethra.

Jen hoo hoo made me you are funny!

glad to hear it's nothing serious, feel better really soon Woody
oh and stop eating your poop !! ;D and tell Amigo to do the same!!

[Jaynie]

Just thinking about it Jen I wouldnt even see if ours had blood in their wee as they go on the grass :/ I should probably watch them a bit more

Glad Woody boy is ok

[Jen]

Thanks guys

Jayne the other symptom Woody had was he peed a lot in a short time. Three big pees in less than 5 minutes. Another thing to watch for is if they don't pee for an abnormal amount of time.

[Jaynie]

ok Jen will watch out for any symptoms like that thanku I have had kidney infections and the symptoms are very similar !

I'm happy to report that Woody only has two more days of medicine. Also his pee has been normal for two weeks which means he definitely doesn't have any stones.
