Scooting

[Dave2006]

My 1 year old spayed female cat has scooted a few times, she is wormed and seems to be in good health.

I tend to spoil her by giving her Webbox type treats, two or three a day, could this be the issue.

It could be an issue with the anal glands. They could simply be full and feeling uncomfortable or they could be impacted and infected. A vet would be able to check the glands and empty them or prescribe treatment.

Thank you for the reply, other than scooting is there any sign that there is an anal glands problem.

Thank you for your help, I will not be feeding her any treats, she needs her claws clipped so will get the vet to check her butt out at the same time.

With dogs, scooting is happens when the anal sacks are full. I don't know enough about cats to be sure. This the first I have heard of scooting. (this is the start of my 2nd week of being ruled by a cat
