Answer

Hi
Blood in her stool is a sign of an intestinal problem(colitis) not a urinary tract problem. If she is lethargic(no energy) and has a decreased appetite she needs to be examined by your regular veterinarian tomorros. If she is very lethargic and not eating or drinking water then go to an emergency veterinarian today.
I hope this helps.
