Blocked anal glands?. Poor puss.

ours does this when he goes to use the litter tray and the poo is stuck on the hair on the bum. DP usually cleans it and the cat goes back ot normal and starts washing.

Ours don't have worms they've both recently been to vets and were checked.

Worms? My cat did this once but it turned out she had a little bit of poo stuck to her butt Shock.

Fluffy cloud is probably right. Blocked glands. Quick trip to the vet, moment's indignity for puss, all sorted.

She's challenging you to a bum dragging race. Grin
