My little Blue Point keeps dragging her bottom on my carpet ARGH!
She is spayed and free of worms, what in the world could be her problem?

It's great that she doesn't have worms, since, as you know, this would be a symtom. Dragging her bottom on the carpet could also indicate that she needs to have her anal glands expressed. I would recommend taking her in to her Vet for an exam.

Ditto for the anal glands.

She is trying to release her anal glands on your carpet. The vet can release them for you, I don't think it would cost much at all.

Why does a cat need its anal glands expressed? I mean what causes this need, she is awfully young, or does that matter? She won't even be a year old until next month.
