Why is my cat's butt irritated, licking, and green poop after deworming?

Question

Is it normal for cat to have irritated back/butt after having diarrhea and deworming? He's licking it a lot and the poop is soft green and gets stuck

Debi Matlack · Accepted Answer

The licking could be part of the problem, irritating the delicate tissue of the anus, as well as the fecal material itself causing a small amount of scald if it sits on his skin for very long.. If he has been treated for the diarrhea and parasites, the feces should return to normal soon. If they do not, I recommend getting him rechecked by your vet. In the meantime, make sure his rear stays clean and help him out by wiping him off with a warm moist washcloth when you find him dirty. Putting a little petroleum jelly or A&D ointment on the sore spots will also help him feel better.
