Do you have benefiber and a diaper cream I can apply to my cats bottom? Benefiber to add to my cats food? If so just go to you Shop section and put in these 2 items? Thank you. I got this info. from a vet who just answered my question from my cat
Sorry, should have been more clear. You’ll pick these items up at your local grocery store or supermarket. Regular human benefiber (odorless, tasteless fiber powder). And any zinc-oxide baby diaper cream like Desitin is fine. Best wishes!

My cat regularly gets poo stuck in her rectum, like she can’t finish properly. She is 14 and has had this problem for the last couple of years. She has wet food in the morning and dry throughout the day.
Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your concern. I would recommend switching to a different food such as Science Diet or Royal Canin and see if a diet change makes a difference. You may even consider adding in a fiber supplement to help bulk up her stool so that it passes without getting stuck. A probiotic such as Purina Fortiflora may also be a good idea, which can be found online quite easily. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Why does my cat poop so much?? It’s pretty soft, too! She doesn’t seem to feel bad. She eats normally and acts normal, too? Any suggestions?
This probably is due to the food she eats. Some cat food has more undigestible bulk (lots more fiber) than other cat food. If you want her to poop less poop, you will need to get low residue cat food, which is usually a prescription food for cats with constipation. If you put "low residue cat food" in your browser , it will bring up many different kinds.

why would a healthy (as far as I know) cat about 9 years old defecate in the house after years of going outside willingly.
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! This may be due to a change in the environment causing this change. Sometimes, this may be due to a gastrointestinal condition such as parasites which can be causing him to defecate more frequently being less able to hold it to go outside. If this continues to happen, it would be best to have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Best of luck!

How can i get my male cat to stop pooping and peeing on my mom's bed?
Thanks for using Boop by Petco. This is a frustrating thing and is very likely behavioral since it is both poop and urine. If it’s the exact same spot on the bed, the first thing I would try is getting a litter box for right on the bed where he goes. If he goes for that, awesome. Leave it there a few days (cleaning it daily of course) and then slowly start moving it toward the side of the bed, an inch or two each day. This could be that he feels there is competition with another cat, has anxiety, cor some other thing that we may never figure out. Spraying that area with products designed to get rid of the smell, rearranging the furniture, keeping th bedroom door shut at all times are also all tactics to try. Finally, speak to your vet about anti-anxiety/behavior modification medication which can help quite a bit with inappropriate elimination. Best wishes to you and Jack.
