My Cat Gizmo age of four months, has white goey liquid coming from his butt, it reminds me of wet nose boogies really. He's been attempting to barf all night and nothings coming out,we have food and water, I even tried to give him tuna but he's not eating it..at times he'll stop,sit and just let out a very sad cry like ..'owwie my butt hurts' or something of this account I imagine.

Advice? ??????

Although usually darker in color, it sounds like it might be his anal glands. Potentially an infection, or an impaction. Either way, a trip to the vet is in order. He may need his anal glands expressed, or he may need antibiotics, or both.

Well, it can be impacted anal glands... thing is, your kitten is not eating, has been crying all night in pain and has been trying to throw up all night - it also might be blocked. Kittens can go down pretty fast. If he is not good by now, take him to the e-vet. Do not wait.

PLEASE immediately take this kitten to a vet. Trying to vomit, not eating, crying out, and is leaking from his anus.....
hope this baby is alright

Excellent point Carolina.
And on second thought, he's young (I think) to have a problem with his anal glands.

Carolina's right - he might have eaten something that's bound up inside. If he's not already doing better, it's a good idea to get him to an e-vet in case he's got string or something wrapped around his intestines. I really hope this isn't the case.
