Olive is 5 years old. She's had a problem for probably 2 years now with peeing in her sleep. But, the problem is random. Sometimes she can go months without peeing in her sleep. Then all the sudden, everytime she gets up, her side is all wet and there is a spot where she was laying. Note that she is housebroken and rarely pees inside on purpose.
I've taken her to the vet many times. She did have to have surgery a few months ago for bladder stones, but this peeing issue happened before and after that surgery. The vet(s) think it may have to do with her eating too much protein and I admit that when she does get a hold of chicken or other table scraps, she seems to pee in her sleep. I don't know what to do to help her. This is a very unusual situation as she is A.) housebroken and B.) randomly has this issue.
Any advice is appreciated.
