Worried about Ella's drinking and weeing! Help please!

She's started to be a bit strange, had a few really long wees outside in the past few days and seems to be more desperate than usual.
She is drinking more than normal and earlier she weed in the car and about 30mins ago she weed in her bed right in front of me!

I was thinking maybe it's attention seeking behaviour because we've got the rescued bird at the moment, but to be honest I don't think so.

She's not straining when weeing so I didn't think it could be a UTI until now. But there's something wrong with her I think.
I'm going to phone the vet tomorrow and see if I can get an appointment asap but if anyone has any idea I'd be greatful to hear what you think this could be!

Excessive urination and thirst could be a few things. Best wait to see what the vet says.

Good luck.

She didn't wee on her bed last night and I had to leave her alone for a bit this moring as I had to attend a work thing and she was fine. She seems fine now as well and hasn't been drinking too much. Maybe she was stressed because of the bird, since I suspected that I've kept them separate as much as possible.
I know I overreact sometimes and get too worried as soon as one of my dogs appears not to be 100% fine.. I'm going to keep observing her and if she has symptoms I'm going to the vet tomorrow.

Sigh.. if only I could care less

Health wise I think she's fine. I definitely think it was down to stress. She peed on her bed again yesterday after there were some fireworks outside. She gets mad scared of loud noises, so we put the thundershirt on and closed all the windows and put the radio on. That helped a bit but she still crawled under the bed and I later found a wet patch on her bed..
She's still so much a mystery to me though in some ways, sometimes I just don't see why she gets scared and stressed and I have to try and find out.
So I'm trying to observe her as much as possible, she's been quite good today but we'll see how tonight goes. She's also very unpredictable with her separation anxiety, sometimes she's very anxious, sometimes she's so fine and relaxed she doesn't even get up from her bed when we're leaving.

Fireworks and Lacey don' t mix either, I basically have to carry her around she's that fearful of them.Can understand as their hearing is way sharper than ours,imagine it must hurt their ears.Hopfully she'll be fine,and you'll both have a good night xx
