Hi again folks. Some of you are familiar with my girl Matilda. She’s roughly 18 weeks. Some time ago I made a post about her urine appearing to be a dark pink color, but it seemed to have cleared up on its own, so I didn’t pursue medication. This is what’s actually happening and I’m at a total loss, hoping someone here has a better idea than I do.
When she urinates, it’s totally clear and normal. I have followed her around on several occasions, soaking it up with a stark white towel to be sure, never so much as the lightest coloring to it. However, over the course of a few hours, the urine slowly TURNS pinker and pinker until it is a dark red. I had to let her potty and then leave it alone to observe it several times to realize this. It is the weirdest thing. Can anybody help??
Note: she never has any urine on her stomach or anywhere on herself, and isn’t dribbling or anything. She has a pretty good diet I think. 2-3 HHB’s per day along with baby greens and arugula and kale and spinach, lots of butternut squash, touch of banana, broccoli, sugar snap peas, carrots, and sometimes an almond as a treat. She has constant access to fresh water.
