new at this ! :(HI IM BRUTUS MOM, i have had him for eight yrs and NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. ive been sick a couple of days and sad to say ,didnt pay any attention to what was happening to brutus. thursday i came home from work and he had a large wad of poop on his butt of which i had no idea because of his fur. i cleaned and blow dryed him up.. now today i come home today which is saturday,and again thick ball of poop. i cleaned and this time cut all hair from butt just to see that his anus is poking out alittle and very red ans swollen. my heart is sick! i think he ate something that may not have agreed with him .even ask my husband.ANY WAY.. WHAT DO I DO ABOUT HIS BUTT..IM SCARED!:cry: PLEASE HELP NOT REALLY GETTING ANSWERS I NEED. |
Sounds like an infected anal gland. Time to see his vet! Jeanette |
My Hobbes has done this before and I would wash him and cut his hair also. Usually because he ate too much. If it continues to happen I would take him too the vet. He may just be irritated where the poop dried on him. |
It sounds like an irritation; but I always err on the side of caution and take mine to see the vet... Or..at least call for advice. good luck! |
thanks! :) i took him to e.r. ...he will be fine. maybe i was being alittle over protective but i was scared..brutus is just looking pitiful in that ecollar..lol! |

Just saw you took him in. Glad to hear he is ok. You have to worry about a possible anal abscess when you see something like that going on. |
