Hi
If you are saying that she actually wets herself etc while she is asleep then this is a medical problem and not behavioural and the only answer is to have her looked at by a vet.

She may have an infection or tummy upset or even something that would need surgery it is impossible to say.

this really isn't normal and needs to be sorted out quickly as dehydration can be a killer and if your cat is losing lots of fluids this way it can become sever before you know it. infections also need to be treated quickly before they affect other organs.

Sorry, but as I say the only answer is a trip to the vets for a proper diagnosis.

Hope your cat is better soon

best wishes Kate
