Hey Michael,

You are right.  There's a very good possibility it's just a UTI, which is 
easily treated usually.  I don't necessarily see any relation between UTI's and 
FeLV + status, but I do see it with URI's.  Keep us posted on Bella.

Subject: Re: Collecting a stool sample?


I guess I'm having a hard time figuring out the "free of litter" part.  With 
three cats, its tough to know who's used the litter box.  I could keep it 
scooped and watch for her, I suppose, but will a sample I just scoop out be ok? 
 I mean, after she's covered it up, do I just scoop it out and take it? :/ 
 
I'm beginning to think the bleeding is from her urinary tract, but I can't be 
sure.  I say this because when I went in the laundry room and examined the 
litterbox area, I found a tiny drop of clear liquid (about the size of half a 
pea) with what looked like traces of blood in it. (I didn't have enough sense 
to grab a syringe and collect it to take with me :(   )  I guess I'm going to 
call my vet, or decide if I want to start using another vet, and figure out 
what to do.
 
Thanks for the pointers guys!

Michael
