I took Zoey in for a comprehensive exam and the vet couldn't get a sample from her. Said she had a bladder the size of a pea, lol. She is fairly small...4.5 lbs.

So I tried to catch it at home with no luck. I used a shallow ladle and tried to slip it under her when she squatted. Ha. She was horrified and decided never to go again. I exaggerate...but I just can't seem to figure a way to get it.

Anyone got a foolproof method???
