Guinea Pig Peeing Blood

Question
My guinea pig,Panda, has been peeing blood whenever she has to pee.It just seems to almost leak out of her.I'm not sure what to do seeing as this is my first guinea pig, but i have had her for a year now and this has never happened before.Have you ever heard of this or know what might be happening?

Answer
Hello Meghan,

Take her to the vet. She could have an urinary tract infection, bladder or kidney stones, or an issue with her reproductive system. She'll need to see a vet for treatment. There isn't much you can do for any of these on your own. Treatment could be as simple as getting an antibiotic for an infection or as complex as surgery to have her spayed or remove stones. All of these could kill her if not treated, so a vet really is your best option. Good luck. I hope it's a simple treatment and that your girl is well soon.
