Help - blood in urine

[JayneG]

Hi guys. I've just noticed some rose coloured pee and it's coming from my 7 month old male himalayan. I've just checked his bottom end and it's definitely him as there appears to be some rose/blood around his penis. Not lots. What is this, should I be worried? Am thinking vets in the morning anyhow.

Could well be a bladder infection in which case the best course of action is an antibiotic like Bactrim/Septrin so a vet visit is your best bet. This would also rule out more complex things like bladder stones.

As has already been said - Vets is the best option. Hopefully it is just a UTI and a course of antibiotics and the all important probiotics will have him right as rain in no time.

Agree, I wouldn't hesitate getting to the vets. Keep us informed.

Well Sam has been given anti-biotics and a pro-biotic. Vet says probably an infection as he's young to have anything more untoward hopefully. He seems fine apart from his pride being hurt a little. He was so insulted to have his bottom examined, you should have seen his face!

;D I am glad that is all the vet thinks is wrong, he should recover quite quickly.
