hey guys... i have a problem with my butt. twice now, meowmy has noticed some white stuff coming from the sides. the first time she noticed by chance.. the second time was because she said my butt smelled so she looked... i'm still eating and drinking and acting normally... meowmy is going to call the vet tomorrow.. but was wondering if anyone had any idea what this stuff could be?
thanks and head bonks...

It sounds like you are expressing your anal glands. This is a normal process and usually happened when we defecate. Sometimes we express them at inappropriate times when we get scared or startled. They do have a foul odor.

the vet said the same thing.... hunter - you are awesome! but she also said that they looked a little funny and didn't know why. she gave meowmy an ointment to rub on my butt 2x a day for a week red face to see if they return to normal.
