UTI in bunny

[Hughes Wildlife Farm]

Not sure if anyone on here has experienced bunny knowledge. But i will try as our vet is closed til Tuesday.
Meet Amy, 3yr old femal. About 5lbs, will get an exact wieght before giving meds. She has red urine with goo in it. Pees often without control (she is litter box trained, but she is peeing everywhere) any ideas on treatment thoughts? Her poop is on the softer side, but still round balls. She is not fixed. She is on a hey and pellet feed which she eats n drinks just fine. Going on 2 days now and urine just got way worse today. Of course I have chicken antibiotic on hand, but not bunny antibiotics

Here's a few reasons for red or bloody urine. It can be normal or not.

Red urine in rabbits is often not a problem. I don’t know about the rest.

Ive seen her urine brown many times... But this new urine in much deeper like a maroon red and gooie

Perhaps @Bunnylady will give her opinion at some point. She's kept rabbits a long time, but I don't think comes on as much.

Is she drinking and does she have a fever? If she's drinking, peeing and not lethargic or feverish you're usually safe to wait a few days to take her in. But I would still definitely get her checked. In mammals not eating drinking and lethargy are big warning signs there's a bad infection going on that needs to be taken of sooner rather than later.

Bunnies specifically....I know mine seem to be very sensitive to diet. Haven't seen it affect their urine much but they're also both boys.

We did notice earlier in the week that she almost stopped drinking and eatting.. Lasted a few days, but once we brought her into the livingroom to document her activity, she started eatting and drinking as usual. I can take her temp today, great suggestion. !!!!!
