My cats are at the vet being boarded until Saturday. While they are there I remembered to ask if the groomer could get rid of the fur mat on one of Spencer's hing legs.
Tonight when I got home from work there was a message from the vet saying that when the groomer shaved Spencer's hiney, that she noticed a sore near his rectum. Apparently he has an infected anal gland.
I gave them permission to treat it of course. My poor boy
Spencer is my first boy kitty and my first experience with anal gland issues. Are anal gland problems found more in male cats than female cats? I've never had this issue with any of my girls.
