When we first got Magic we were told that if they rub their butts it means they probably have worms but we quickly found out that that is rarely true...usually it means that the anals need to be expressed (which the vet does) or that they have a clig on....Salior does it sometimes after she has been to the groomer, like her butt itches!!!
Our vet also told us, that if you don't have their anals expressed, they will eventually do it themsleves by rubbing their butts on the floor constantly, but I would not recommend this as I would not want that stuff all over the carpet!!!
