Dog losing control of bladder

My pet dog is 15 yrs old (female neutered Spitz cross) and just had a geriatric blood work profile done.(for dental). Just about a week or so ago she started to urinate in her kennel while I was at work (never before). She also cannot hold it in the house at night time. She leaks a little when asleep, but also wake up to go outside. She has been taking medicine for a possible urinary tract infection, but it is not helping. The results on the urine sample showed a little blood, but not much infection. What can be the problem?

Cats and moving house

I am moving soon, and I’m moving off my island into the city. I have multiple cats (5) and need to find a way to get them transferred from my house to the new house. Unfortunately, there is a ferry ride on the way and i dont have enough carriers to have them all locked up. Is there anything I can buy to calm them down long enough (3-4 hours) to get them over there? and would it be safe to have them in the back of the moving van or should they be in the car with us?

Beta fish with lump near tail

my beta fish has been not right for a couple of weeks now. First he propped himself up between the filter and the tank then he got pop eye which has been treated. Now he seems to be stuck on his side and I noticed that there is a bulge at the back of his body right before the tail starts.This seems to be what is keeping him from swimming upright. Any ideas of what I’m dealing with and what I can do for this fish?
