Try simple solutions first; clip the fir from around the rectum. If that doesn't help, I think he may have a congenital problem. Cats that don't have tails may also be missing parts of the spinal cord that innervates muscles and organs at the very rear, such as the muscles of the rectum and the urinary bladder. This is likely to be the case if his bladder feels full on palpation all the time. What urine you see on his legs is basicly overflow from a full bladder, not what the bladder normally presses out. Stool would build up if he is not exerting pressure in the abdomen and the sphincter muscles are not working, so the stool is also overflow from the colon. Have a vet check this out.
