Hey guys, need some insight here. My 4 year old has pooped outside the box 2 days in a row, but it’s kinda weird because what happens is she starts pooping in the box, then jumps out with the poop still dangling from her butt, which ends up going in a trail across the floor. For the first day half the poop was inside the box and on the second day all the poop was in a trail outside it.
I thought at first she was constipated, but the poop itself is still quite soft and squishy. Doesn’t seem like diarrhoea either, it’s still a well formed sausage of poop. The best explanation I could come up with is that she’s experiencing a rough spot of digestion resulting in inconsistently formed poop? She acts pretty normally otherwise.
She’s a long haired cat so I’ve been giving her some hair ball remedy in case it’s fur causing the problem, and giving her more fresh water with her wet food. Anyone else has this problem before / can think of any solution to this? I’m just monitoring her for now, if it gets worse I’ll bring her to the vet.
