Ever Experience This Poop Issue?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I saw that Simon had a dingleberry that needing tending to. When the royal tail was lifted, I saw that the piece of poop wasn't stuck to his fur; rather, it was hanging by a thread of kitty fur coming out of his sphincter. I combed off the visible chunk but was *not* about to grasp at the bit of fur hanging halfway out his butt. I love my cat, but, boy, can he be a gross one sometimes.

Shave the cats butt area......

Right and then bathe him, or wash him in the rear area. Once he is dry, comb some cornstarch into his fur and groom him out. I would also start adding some fiber to his diet, either cooked and mashed green beans, or canned pumpkin.

No, no... Nothing was actually stuck to his fur. He had a piece of poop essentially dangling because it was attached to a strand of fur (which was still connected somewhere inside of him). I have, however, wiped his backside with a cat-cleaning wipe and will clip his fur a bit again. I will also give him some pumpkin to better help him pass out the fur he's been ingesting.
