The smelly cat's butt may be due to the feces on the butt, which emits a smell. In this case, you only need to clean the cat's butt in time. Secondly, it may be that the cat's anal glands are inflamed, causing the butt to smell bad. It is recommended that the owner squeeze the cat's anal glands in time and apply anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. In addition, if the cat is in a state of diarrhea and will emit a bad smell, it is recommended that the owner consult a pet doctor in time for medication.
1. Contaminated with feces
If the cat’s hair is long, it will be easily contaminated with feces when pooping, causing it to smell bad. In this regard, it is recommended that the owner check whether the hair on the cat’s buttocks is stained with feces. If so, you can use pet-specific wet wipes to wipe and clean the cat after each defecation, and wipe the area around the anus that is easily contaminated with feces. Shave the hair cleanly so that the local odor of the cat can be reduced to a minimum.
2. Anal gland inflammation
If the owner does not clean the cat’s anal glands for a long time, resulting in inflammation of the anal glands, a foul odor will emit, and in severe cases, the cat will develop anal gland inflammation. Discharge, suppuration, etc. appear in the perianal area. If this is the case, you need to clean up the excess fluid in the cat's anal glands in time. If suppuration or infection occurs, you need to use relevant anti-infective drugs and pay attention to the cleaning of the cat's anus.
3. Diarrhea
If a cat has diarrhea, it is easy for some of its hair to be stained with feces and emit a foul odor. The owner can check the cat's feces. If it is really caused by diarrhea, the owner needs to find out the cause of the cat's diarrhea in time and then treat it symptomatically.
