No urination for over 24 hours, keeps licking the area, vulva swollen for a week (thought it was heat since she’s 8 months); one or two bowel movements a day, appetite okay, but low spirits
No urine for over 24 hours may be urinary blockage. If the bladder is full, get microscopy and urinalysis at a vet to tell infection from stone, then catheterize and treat. If the bladder isn't full, heat-related low water, hormone upset, or stress may be the cause — soothe her and encourage drinking; if still no urine, see a vet.
