scooting
Kitty, my 15 pound young male cat was in the litter box as usual.
This time, as he exited the closet where the litter box is kept, he scooted his butt on the floor for about 2 feet, leaving a skidmark. He scurried across the floor and did the same thing again. I was a little surprised/alarmed by then. He did the same thing two or three more times in rapid succession and it was like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Yes, I know what he was doing. Oh well, good thing I bought a carpet shampooer not long ago. -- no, he doesn't need taking to the vet, he is in good health and I keep an eye on their excretions (all types) checking for anything unusual... I just thought his antic might sound funny, only given the fact that it's not chronic

Actually, he's pretty much clueless when it comes to personal hygiene. I usually don't like to see my cat licking its rear end, but now it seems okay. I JUST THOUGHT HIS ANTIC MIGHT SOUND FUNNY, ONLY GIVEN THE FACT THAT IT'S NOT CHRONIC

If it was worms, they would not be itching pro say, after having taken a nice Phil. however, I could see glands itching after having taken a dump. Now! You should butter up to Phil, and ask him about the glands. Meanwhile, why not do your cat a favor and scratch his ass for him. Come'on Doe be a real cat lover!
