Question
Hi. I have 2 cats aged about 18 months old. My female cat Bonnie has been leaking clear fluids from her bottom for the last few days. The fluids are not excessive and frequent, but do happen unexpectedly. The fluids are clear and do not smell and sometimes she leaves very small puddles if she has been sitting. We are of course looking to take her to the vet soon, but was wondering if these symptoms are common?
We have noticed that her appetite has decreased and she is drinking more water than usual, but she seems fine and still acts like herself. Please can you help?  Many thanks

Answer
Hi
no this is not normal and you are right to take her to the vets especially as it is coupled with other symptoms.

All i can think is that it may be a slight infection inside or something to do with a weak bladder, but only further tests will be able to find out for sure.

Sorry i could not be of more help
