cat's arse !

Our cat's arse stinks every now and again, does anyone know why this is ?

Also have a look at the next opportunity - there are two black 'dots' either side of the necessary exit. These are actually glands that have a secretion to 'aid the passage of solids' and can get occasionaly blocked.

Either get the vet to check them, or if you have a few nose pegs, very very gently apply a little pressure to them holding some tissue over them first, and you may get to clear any blockage that can cause smells. The vet will be the best bet to be honest as they will also be able to confirm that all else is ok at the same time.

I had a cat with a smelly arse once and found the best think to do was to give it a jolly good bath. Cats love baths and I'll bet it'll be lots of fun for you too. If this fails, get rid of the smelly thing like I did. Dogs are far more friendly and pleasant smelling. Plus they like baths even more.! Good luck.
