About 2wks ago we noticed Midge had been passing blood. Not in her wee but at random times of the day. She never presented any signs of pain when pooing or peeing and we wouldn't have noticed anything was wrong until we saw blood on a cabbage leaf. Well a visit to the vets and an anti-inflammatory injection and a course of baytril things seemed to be looking up. She went for a check-up on tuesday and everything was fine. We stopped the a/b on wednesday and yesterday we noticed the blood has come back. So we gave her more a/b and another visit to the vets today. He checked her over still not sure as to whats going on, more a/b and anti-inflammatories and come back next week if no improvement for a scan. When feeling around he can feel no abnormalities and she's still not presenting any pain. Any ideas?
