Health & WellbeingWhenever snow poops a bit of her stool sticks with her butt what should I do?
Hello, and thank you for using Boop by Petco. Most cats should groom themselves clean, but some cats can struggle to do so, especially if they are overweight (and may have trouble reaching their hind end), if they have very long hair, or if they're struggling with diarrhea. If Snow has very long hair, you could ask the vet or a groomer to clip her hind end a little bit so it's easier to keep clean. You can then keep baby wipes around and wipe her hind end whenever you notice she needs help staying clean. Keep an eye on her litterbox, and if her stools seem softer than usual then it's worth having a vet take a look at her to make sure she doesn't have a medical issue that needs to be addressed.
