She said it smelled fishy right? Pyometra doesn't smell like that as far as I know, but infected anal glands sure does....
Hopefully she took her to the vet..I pray she did. It does sound like she has been having silent heats though. Definitely should be spayed even if it is not pyometra. |
This was her post, nothing about August

The fact that she made the above statement, sent up warning signals to me.
A girl can have closed Pyometritis and have it suddenly burst. And based on what she described above, is what had happened. I've had girls have an infection in their reproductive organs and they emit a fishy smell.
