It turns out that Ardella's specific gravity (concentration of urine) is very low and has been with all her samples. I was surprised because the last sample actually had color to it! We're withholding water for the evening and will take her second urine of the day in tomorrow. Hopefully a specific gravity result will be available soon after the culture is taken in instead of having to wait weeks. So, Ardella could have kidney problems, but I don't know enough to guess what the extent of the problem is. I'm hoping I have something definitive to report tomorrow.
We may have a home for Ella. Crossing fingers that everything checks out. It sounds like a good home!
