    Have you changed her diet? If so, this could be the cause of the runny stools. It's always best to make a change in diet slowly.

    Did she maybe get a hold of something she shouldn't have? How long have you had her?

    It could be nerves, food, a whole bunch of things.

    Keep an eye on her, if this continues, if you notice a change in eating habits and drinking, if this is accompanied by vommitting, then you really should get her to a vet.

    Take care and congrats on your new addition.
