Thanks Nina, That's exactly what the vet tech told me when I came in. She said they have to express the bladder and that can sometimes irritate the bladder. She also mentioned nicking the bladder could be a cause, but didn't think that was the reason. I hope she isn't going to get anemic from losing blood. Let's hope this clears up soon!
