Oh No , poor baby. Do you have an ER vet that you can take him to tomorrow or better yet tonight ? I would just shave the hair totally off his bum so it can't cause a blockage as that can make him deathly ill. Do you have any plain canned pumpkin that you could give him as that will help with both hard & soft stool. If you do not have pumpkin you can give him some apple as it has pectin witch is in both Kaopectate & Pepto. Also he may have jumped off of something & hurt his back. How is he walking ?
