one of my two cats is kind of overweight and a little jumpy because the other cat bullys her sometimes.
a few months ago i was scratching her back and noticed some liquid squirt out from her rear-end area. it was REALLY REALLY smelly.....anyway, i didn't notice her doing that again for awhile, so i wasn't worried.
then my boyfriend was rough-playing with her, and picked her up, and she did it again, and we assumed he squeezed her too hard - maybe she had a full bladder or something.....
well now we notice she does it if she gets spooked by the other cat (which is often) or sometimes it appears she does it for no reason.
i've always had female cats, all of them are fixed. i don't know what it smells like when cats spray - could she be sparying?
i never thought so because she doesn't "aim" for anywhere inparticular, or do it in the same places over and over again. it's almost as if it leaks out......but like i said it smells 10 times worse than urine.
any advice? of course i plan on taking her to the vet next week, but wanted to know if anyone had similar problems.
thanks in advance!
