Question
My male cat has a cloudy-white discharge coming from his anus, it also looks slightly inflamed and sore. I am concerned. He has been neutered and is just over a year old. Please help as if veterniary attention is needed I'd like to know Asap. Thankyou. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cayce -
Have your cat examined by a veterinarian as soon as possible. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you what is causing the discharge because I do not have the benefit of performing a physical exam on your pet.
Best Regards,
Charlotte Sherrell, DVM
