Little Kitty Cat TMI Moment
Jun. 23rd, 2009 11:57 amSo lately, people in the cat comms I watch have had problems with their cats needing their anal glands expressed.
What I'm trying to figure out is why this seems like an epidemic of care gone wrong.
Because I've never had any of my cats need to get their anal glands expressed.
WTF? Is this more common than I thought? Did I just miss the signs on my own cats? (Although scooting and dingleberries are pretty hard to miss...and when my cats have had it, it was due to other things, like worms (ew) or having found and ingested one of my own Hairs of Doom, thereby making the wonderful 'poo on a string'...
So, guys, did you ever have to squeeze foul-smelling marking musk out of your own cats' arses?
