Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2004cat dragging his a.s
Hi, I adopted a cat from the spca 2 months ago, he's now 6 months old. He's doing that a.s dragging thing ; sitting down and dragging himself with his front paws...like he's trying to scratch his ahole. I've seen many dogs do this but it's the first time I see a cat doing it. What could be the problem and what could be done? > it. What could be the problem and what could be done? My Xoxo likes it. I think he's just making sure his butt is clean. Is your cat long-haired by any chance?

His anal glands may be blocked and need expressing. It wouldn't hurt to give your vet a call and ask. > Hi, > I adopted a cat from the spca 2 months ago, he's now 6 months old.

It sounds like impacted anal glands. If so, visit to the vet can easily correct the problem. MaryL > > I adopted a cat from the spca 2 months ago, he's now 6 months old.

Fluffy, our long hair tabby, ocassionaly gets a piece of poop caught on her butt. She gets it off by dragging her butt on the floor. It leaves poop skids on the floor, but luckily she does it right after she gets out of the litter box which is on a vinyl floor. It would be really unpleasant if she did it on the carpets. |
