yes if they are constipated and straining. you can probably buy something for the constipation and some cream for you to lovingly apply to affected area!

Is not a pile.

Is an elastic band, will work it's way out with a little lollipop of poo on the end of it.

I kid you not.

i have googled cat piles, but not come up with much only cats pissing on piles of clothes.

I'd wiat and se what happens, i t could be attatched to something random like boysarelikedog said.

i will go and bump my cat thread now, can anyone give me reassurance.

It may be a septic anal gland which requires squeezing . Aren't you glad you have pets cod?

Did YOU post that question BALD?

Because if you did - WHAT WAS THE PROJECT YOU WERE DOING WITH ELASTIC BANDS?

Please. Need to know.

It's such a lie too. This, 'I know how many there were because I am doing a project with them.' Liar. Not true. She knows because she counts her elastic bands, and puts them in pots and then counts her paper clips and her pins, and puts them in pots. But she doesn't want anyone to know. Project, my arse.

Nope, not me.

All of my cats ate at least one elastic band, and the boy cat was obsessed - that's how I know.

All long dead now, awwww.

Anyway, an update please cod on the kitten's status?

I read on here once that dogs drag their arses across the floor to itch their anal glands (or something)

fair put me off my lunch

Apparently anal glands in cats are tiny openings situated at 5 and 7 o clock to the anus. Now I'm going to clear my browsing history so I don't have to explain to anyone why I was Googling cat anuses.
