Vaginal discharge

Postby debih » 13 May 2013, 07:12

Last night I noticed that Millie was licking herself more than usual.

This morning when she moved from where she had been lying on the floor I noticed a smear of mucusy stuff - it doesn't smell at all and was a yellowy colour and thick but watery (if that makes sense). I wiped her bottom with a clean tissue and although it was slightly wet there was no colour to it and no smell.

She is eating and drinking normally, going to the toilet normally and is bouncy and normal.

We noticed a small amount of mucus in the corner of her eye first thing this morning (although I doubt the two are connected).

I don't want to rush her up to the vets as I only noticed her licking yesterday (I haven't seen her licking herself at all this morning) so I thought I would just keep an eye on her for a couple of days.

Any ideas? (She was spayed about 3 years ago).

I wouldn't worry too much as she is spayed. The only thing that would worry me is could she have got a grass seed up there when she stooped to wee? Depends how low she stoops and how high the grass is?

I'll keep an eye on her. I haven't noticed her licking herself at all today and it definitely hasn't put her off her food.

She is on her 5th meal already this morning - oh well, more weight on is good. :D

I'm off to work shortly and she usually spends the morning on S's bed as the sun streams through the windows onto it. I have put a pale coloured blanket on the bed so I can see if there are any more "spillages" whilst I am out.
