It's not uncommon to have a bit of urinary incontinence or diarrhea after a surgical procedure. For lack of a better term, anytime a surgeon goes rummaging around near the intestines (as with a spay), the intestines react. Sometimes they speed up and cause a bit of diarrhea, other times they slow down from both the manipulation and anesthesia and cause vomiting or constipation. This should settle it's self in a day or two.
Same thing with the bladder. It might become a bit over active at first. But it could just as easily be from the pain medication they gave her... Crystal can get so relaxed that she doesn't realize that she needs to urinate until it's too late.
The first 24 hours with my girls after their spays were just pathetic. I felt so guilty for putting them through all of that. But by the second, and definitely by the 3rd day, they were back to their normal selves. We haven't regretted it since.
