Hey guys, I'm a bit perplexed by my little (or big) Yachana. After she uses the kitty lavatory, she rubs her rear end on my carpet and leaves poop stains. I read that long haired cats, especially Persians, may get their poop stuck on the hairs of the rear-end and feel dirty (thus they rub their behind on the carpet).
I needed to bring her to the groomer anyway, so I gave her a lion trim. There was no hair at all near her rear--and that lion trim is the most adorable. For three days she did not rub her behind on my carpet. But on the fourth day she did, and then again...and then today. I'm not sure what's causing this, the only other thing that comes to mind is parasites. I've tried to see her rear end and saw nothing, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have it.
I really don't want her to keep putting poop on my carpet, it's really disgusting. Is there any suggestions? Any other cause? Is this a sign of a greater, more serious issue? And how do I go about in ending this poop-stained carpet problem?
I really appreciate all your responses.
