Hello all. I haven't posted here in awhile, and now have a concern about my boy Rocky. He's always had a nasty habit of not covering his pooh after he goes, but I've noticed lately the smell has gotten worse and worse. Several days ago, after he went, the odor wafted in with him when he came to see me. Last night I was awakened from a dead sleep by the most god-awful smell I think I've ever smelled. I called my vet today and they are seeing him Saturday. I was told it sounds like he may need his anal gland/s expressed, or he could possibly have worms. Rocky is an indoor only cat, but it's possible I may have tracked flea eggs in - who knows. I haven't noticed any worms in his pooh or in his vomit when he vomited a hairball up the other day. He is a 10 year old lynx poing siamese.
So can anyone here tell me if they've experienced this with their cat and what the diagnosis/outcome was?
Thanks,
Carol
