Im just really concerned right now. This past week, Gracie has been having accidents in the house. She's been going in the kitchen on our white vinyl floor. When she pee's, it's only tiny spots, about the size of a quarter. And the urine is green. And I mean, green as grass. I called the vet and he said bring in a urine sample.
I brought in a sample this morning and then called him around lunch for the results. He did not sound happy, and was quite concerned and that freaked me out a little. He had me confirm again about the color and amount, and asked if Gracie had been eating normally. I told him since yesterday, her appetite has appeared off. He said he wanted me to bring her in first thing in the morning for blood testing. He said he found levels of bilirubin in her urine test, and between that and the color of her urine with the other symptoms, he suspects she has a liver problem. *Faints*
I just wish tomorrow would get here already, I am a wreck with concern over what might be wrong with her. She's perfectly fine otherwise, but jeesh, liver problems?? That's not good, to say the least. And her green urine concerns me. Obviously, we went over diet changes, which there's been none. No new treats or meds, and he said even then, it wouldn't turn urine dark green and keep it that way. Plus she's urinating less amounts, and more often than usual.
Poor thing, shes only 9, and in otherwise great health considering her past. Hopefully it's nothing, but I'm ready to have that bloodwork done and to get some answers!
