So we have had Bub for 4 months now, she adopted us by giving birth on our patio, and at first she had really bad loose stools. We figured out (with some recommendations over the phone from the vet) that her tummy has trouble with poultry products. We only feed her foods that have very little to no poultry in the ingredients list and her stool has been stinky but normal (as far as we can tell) for several months.... Now all of a sudden this week we are noticing bloody mucus on top of her stool twice. Today she pooped on the bathroom rug ( we've never had litter box issues before) and it had some blood on top. She has been acting completely normal with eating playing and sleeping otherwise. We are set to leave tomorrow morning for a few days for the holiday, We have a sitter visiting a few times daily but... QUESTION: Should we postpone our trip and get her to the vet ASAP?or can it wait 3 days? and our follow up question: Does anyone have ideas? I have read about constipation on this site and it seems to match the symptoms... but I am worried about it being something worse... and we really can't afford any medical issues for her.... We would probably have to find her a new owner if she needs anything that will cost much since we are in a rough situation right now
