6. Is there yellowish discharge, too, or smelly liquid? If so, she could have a ruptured anal

gland and perhaps it could be abscessed. If so, an emergency visit to the vet's clinic might be in order. If the blood is actually "pouring" from her, I would think she needs to be seen, especially since she is so tiny.

Is she scooting her butt on the floor? That would also suggest anal gland issues.

Also, she might well be in pain, and the vet could maybe give her something for it.
