Squealie Wheelies :(

[PottyForPiggies]

My beautiful girlie Bernadette has been having some squealie wheelies It's been happening for a couple of days now; she'll just stand still, squealie for a bit like she is in pain and then move back to her food.
There's no red patches in the hutch, and when she was out just on the laminate floor (the best way to track what she's actually leaving!) her pee was rather cloudy but not gritty. She is eating, drinking and has a steady 1050g weight (little chunky girl!) so I'm not overly concerned, but squealie wheelies make me very very sad
Any ideas what it could be?

They still could be the very beginnings of a UTI; blood is not always present right at the beginning. Another form of them is what I call the 'smelly pees'. Check for higher protein levels in the pee, which indicate an infection. It can sometimes take a few days for the symptoms to become clearly identifiable.

I agree it sounds like a UTI but a vet visit will be needed for diagnosis and antibiotics and possible pain relief too.

Other possibilities are a stone or Interstitial cystitis but a vet will usually treat with antibiotics to rule out an infection first. I would also expect blood to be present if this was the case.
