Do you cat owners help the cats at home wipe their butts? Under normal circumstances, cats clean their butts after pooping, so they don’t need cat slaves. (Although some people think licking their butts is dirty, this is the nature of cats~)! But aside from the normal situation, some cats still need to use the power of humans to help them wipe their butts! Don’t underestimate the cleaning work of the butt. If you ignore the dirt on the butt for a long time, it will likely cause disease!
Do cats need to wipe their butt?
As mentioned at the beginning, ordinary cats can clean themselves very well, and there is no need to help them wipe their butts; however, there are several situations that still require cat owners to help:
.long-haired cats
.overweight cats
.senior cats
Long-haired cats tend to get poop because of the fur near their buttocks. It is very difficult to clean up again, so it is best to wipe them after they are finished. For overweight cats and senior cats, because they cannot bend over, they may not be able to lick their butts, so cat owners should also help to clean it up~
Don’t ignore the dirt on the butt.
Everyone knows that the cat’s butt has anal glands, which secrete foul-smelling bodily fluids for the cat to use for the smell. Demarcate territory and identify each other’s identities. If the butt is dirty and not cleaned, it may block the anal glands, causing obstruction and inflammation, and in severe cases, the anal glands may rupture!
How to help cats clean their butts
1. Keep the cat’s tail upright
2. Use a cotton or cotton pad dipped in warm water and gently wipe from the inside to the outside
3. The hair near the anus If it gets on the poop, you can moisten the cotton pad and wipe it patiently.
I wish everyone a clean and healthy ass~
