Advice please, reduced eating, small poo, swollen tummy.

Ok, so I had noticed that Inca had not been as keen for her food over the past couple of days. She is still eating it, but just eating it slower, so I thought.....teeth. So I have an appointment at the vets tomorrow afternoon.
Then tonight when I came home, she ate some veg, but not as much as she would. I was looking in beside the litter tray, where she usually poos (yip, outside the tray!) and noticed some really small hard poos, very black. Then I noticed that her tummy seemed a bit swollen, I lifted her up to have a feel about and she proceeded to pee all over me, but this pee was like she had been holding it in all day. Then when I feel her tummy she tenses it like it is a bit sore. Now I am thinking....kidneys? Just cos she is on long term Metacam?
Any ideas people? Will obv. be going to the vets anyways.
She is eating hay just now and I have gave her some fibreplex and some protexin pellets to maybe help her tummy.
Oh, and the hay that I just got recently is different to the usual stuff....could that he anything to do with it??
