What should I do if a cat always loses shit particles? A cat always leaks a small piece of shit on the ground. It may be caused by problems with the sphincter in the anus, or it may be caused by diarrhea in the cat. It is recommended that the owner go to the hospital for examination in time. There may be several reasons.

1. The hair is too long

If the hair around the cat's butt is longer, it is easier to get feces during the excretion process. When the cat walks out of the litter box, the feces may fall to the ground. In this case, the owner can trim the hair on the cat's butt a little shorter, and can also wipe the hair around the cat's butt with a wet tissue after each time the cat has pooped.

2. Diarrhea

When a cat has diarrhea or soft stool, whether long-haired or short-haired cats, it is easy to leave feces around its butts, and then the feces will fall to the ground during the action. At this time, the owner can check the cat's feces. If there is diarrhea or soft stool, you need to consult a pet doctor in time to treat it. When the diarrhea is cured, the cat's feces will also disappear.

3. If there is a problem with the anus or sphincter contraction of the cat, the cat will be unable to control the excretion of feces, resulting in leaks of feces. This situation is quite serious. If not dealt with in time, it may cause the cat to prolapse, so the owner needs to take the cat to the pet hospital for examination and treatment in time.
