Exclamation Yellow discharge! Help :(

Hi everyone,
Before when i went to get Honeydo out for her exercise i noticed that around the vaginal area she has yellow discharge/puss! Its very smelly and also has alot of poo around the same area (sorry to sound rude!)
Usually she lets me pick her up but i tried a couple of times and she bit me everytime she doesnt seem her normal self! I'm really worried about her
Do you have any idea what this could be and should i take her to the vets?
Thank you x

I would leave her be tonight and check on her in the morning. Freaked me out when it first happened with Rin...Then Tobi...but if it's gone by the morning then I'd bet that was it.

dose it have a wrong smell to it, like acidic smell?
dose she look big above the hips, or have a firm tummy?

if she is in heat, it will just have a 10x stronger amount of her normal female smell from it (nancy you can tell just opening the door to the hallway, yet alone going near her, aurora never smells even on heat day.. i think she is a boy missing the bits XD)
i hope its the latter, >.< let me know what it was like, as lrp says, if it happens again if 4 days, or is gone by tomorrow, then it most likely is heat.

if she is acting odd, not letting you hold her its more worrying, but females on a strong heat are a bit loopy, they will come out then run like a silly thing XD or play the i wont be picked up if you try game
fingers crossed for you x

It does sound like a vet trip is needed. Thinking of you both Nat, hope it goes well and can be treated quick and easily x

I'm sorry that she hasn't gotten any better. Be sure you call the vets and the Wheatleys have their little paws crossed for you. xx

This is really strange but the yellow discharge has dissapeared! She still smells and has the poo around the area and she isnt in heat. So i rung up the vets asking if it would need to be looked at and she adviced that i leave her until Monday since it could be an on off thing and if it returns then to go and see the vet asap. She has defo purked up she looks ok now
