Hello! I just joined today so this is my first post.
Our girl Popcorn is leaving orange urine spots (fresh, not sitting in cage for a while) on her white bedding.
A little background on Popcorn:
She is unfortunately from the petstore (before we knew better). When her cagemate suddenly passed (also from same petstore), we adopted her a new friend from a fantastic rescue orginaization in Los Angeles. The rescue owner predicted she was about 8 or 9 months. So that would put her at about 10 or 11 month now.
She just finished a massive round of medications for bloat, diarrhea, and a URI. (Anti-inflammatory, antibiotics, bloat medication, probiotics, critical care, and vitamin c). The very next day after finishing her last dose of meds, she starting leaving really orange urine spots around. We had her hanging out on a white blanket to monitor how fresh the orange was and it was quite freshly orange. It hadn't really had a chance to sit very long and oxidize.
She is showing no signs of pain or struggle while urinating. She is pooping regularly and eating regularly. We are slowly reintroducing veggies because of the diarrhea. She isn't eating any colored foods.
She had xrays done so we know there are no signs of stones and I find it hard to believe she contracted a UTI while already on antibiotics.
Does anyone have any idea? Thank you!
