I have two questions. Here's the first one. My cat was on the coffee table yesterday and all of a sudden jumped off. When I looked at the table, she had pooped a little bit, it was just two quarter size liquidy spots. There was nothing that scared her like loud noises or anything. What's up with that?
Here is the second question, also poop related. Occasionally we will come home to find a small poop lump somewhere. It isn't like she pooped on the floor but more like it just fell out. She is a healthy cat around 8 months old and living in an only cat house. We have a dog, but the dog is crated when we are not home and the poop isn't near her or her litter box. We have hardwood floors and I clean it up right away, and it isn't always in the same spot. She was at the vet and has a clean bill of health. She isn't due to go back until around December. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Is she a long hair?? if so she may have poop balls on her rear ..The easy fix for this is to shave around the poopy area.... If not call the vet and talk to the vet or the vet tech and get there opnion

My rescue cat did the same thing. It was worms! Even though she tested negative for worms in her stool, we knew she had previously lived with someone who had flea problems. I had used Advantage on her but that doesn't get rid of worms. Two bouts of Revolution and she's never left a stain again.
