First off... I have already spoke to the vet and I am waiting on Miss Taycie to collect a urine sample from. Then to the vet we go! Anyways..This morning I woke up to an accident on my bed. Taycie NEVER has accidents which I am really blessed.. but this is why I am wondering..I immediently put every thing in the washer and cleaned it up.

This got me thinking... her water intake has been strange lately. She goes to work with me and right now they are undergoing major construction to their home. I nanny during the week so she comes along. I have noticed her water intake has been different. She hasn't been drinking as much during the day but then at night she will go to her dish at home and drink quite a bit. At first I thought it was because I moved her dish because of the construction and she couldn't find it...

I haven't really noticed her struggling to pee.. seems fairly normal.. But I did inspect her private area this morning after I called the vet and it does seem slightly more red. Not horrible but their is a definate color change.. Also she did seem like I was bothering her like it was tender..

Anyways I am thinking it is a UTI and I want to have it checked out immeditley regardless if it is or isn't. I always err on the side of caution.. especially when it is something like that. I am just a nervous wreck! For breakfast I added some water over her kibble and some wet food so I am hoping I can collect it quickly!

Any advice is greatly appreciated. I have never delt with this before and want to make sure she is getting everything she needs!

Thanks everyone.
