Poopy butts

moseylover Oct 25, 2006 12:58 PM

Ah, no delicate way to ask this! My dear little Manx (young male) has the typical poopy butt. He goes fine in the litter box for the most part, he just doesn't quite get it all there. So, I pick him up and wipe him off. Needless to say, while tolerating it, he's not too excited about it. Is there something I feed him that will firm up his stools? Canned pumpkin has been suggested but all that's done is make him a canned pumpkin addict!Thanks!

Try feeding him fresh meat and adding probiotics to it. Stop everything else for 5 days and see how it goes.
