Hi, I'm new.
I've looked all over the web for an answer to my kitty question and haven't been able to find it anywhere... I don't know how common this problem is, but I just want to make sure my kitty is okay.
This is kind of gross, but he likes to wipe his dirty bum on our floor. He scoots across the room doing this, leaving a trail (yuck). We used to have carpeting, and thought maybe he'd stop it when we moved to a place with hardwood floors. Nope. He's been doing this forever- we asked the vet if there was something wrong with him, and she said no. Of course, we're here in Tokyo, so I have no idea how qualified any vets (or human doctors, for that matter) are out here. But he definitely doesn't have worms. I tried changing to only dry food, but that didn't help, so we've since switched back to a dry morning/wet evening combination.
Our Kimutaku is a 4 year old neutered male, is in great health otherwise, and is very sweet and always full of kisses.
Does anybody have any advice?
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Btw, this site looks great!
