Hi,

I'm asking for prayers for Bella. She was fine last night, and fine at 3am. However, about ten minutes ago she went potty (urine) and it smelled to high heaven. I could smell it across the room...normally her potty doesn't smell at all. She then stepped off her potty pad and began to drag her bottom.

I know she doesn't have worms, because she was just seen at the vet's last week, and sorry to be graphic, but he put a blue stick in her tushy and said she didn't have any signs of worms at all and everything looked fine. She also had a dewormer the week prior to that (no worms were seen then either, he just gave it to her to be on the safe side).

She also wouldn't eat her kibble this morning, but did eat a Tablespoon of the wet stuff (Prescription a/d critical care canned). The vet gave this to her on her first visit and said to give her some mixed with her other food since she wasn't keen on eating her first day but needed the calories (new home nerves). This was an unopened can with an exp date of 11/2013. She gobbled it up in nothing flat, but normally loves eating her regular kibble (she's not a picky eater by any means).

I have no idea what's going on and I know this probably isn't nearly as serious as a lot of other illnesses and injuries here at YT, but it's serious to me because she's my "baby" and I love her...and something is not right.

My husband is coming home in about 10 minutes to take her to the vet with me. I've already called them and told them we're coming in shortly.

Anyway...if anyone can spare some prayers for Bella, even though it's probably not something extreme or life-threatening...I'd really appreciate it.

I'll update when I can.
