With Esme's recent UTI issues, every little squeak makes me nervous- so when she squeaked when touching her tummy, I decided to monitor her to check for any squeaking when peeing and pooping in an upturned igloo, with plenty of veggies.

And so the waiting began...

and so we waited...
Esme: I can't pee whilst you're watching.

and we tried to climb out...

Nope, it's no good. Can't get out that way...

Maybe a chin rub would help?...

I don't have a picture of the finished product, but needless to say no squeaking when peeing or pooping- and she certainly did a lot of the latter

Aww how adorable x)

Reminds me of when i had to get a urine sample from Marmite, he had to sit in a washing up bowl with some veg untill nature called !
 
Really cute photo story. The last 2 pics are very adorable. I hope Esme is OK.

Had a similar experience with my Peanut Butter recently. He squealed 3 times while lifting his butt up trying to do I didn't know what. Sat him on my lap on a white fleece for 2 hours while waiting to go to the vet. He weed and pooped perfectly normally! Took him to the vet and nothing wrong with him.

Frustrating isn't it?
 
Awww Emse, I hope you are not poorly again, your are such a beauty x)
