Sootie- Yellow-sided GCC
The last couple of days I've noticed sootie sneezing a bit. Not constant or excessive but more than usual I think. Then this morning in her big poop her urine was green and had an odd gel like consistency. Her feces and urates were both normal.

She had a dinner of kale, collard greens and spinach so I'm wondering if that could be the reason for the odd poop? She has had these foods before but always in a chop mix never on their own.

She's acting normal:playing and eating and drinking. She's not puffed up (except when she sleeps or cuddles which is normal) and as far as I can see her nares and eyes are clear.

Cause for concern or parranoid parront??

Sneezing is usually just dust or other particulates getting caught in the nares. If everything else is normal I wouldn't be concerned. It's when it's accompanied by discharge that you should worry. The poop sounds normal from what you described, just a result of greens. Sounds fine and no need for worry :)
