Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If he was startled it could have been fluid from his anal glands. The glands are situated inside the rectum and they have fluid that is released when they have a bowel movement or when they are scared. If there was bright red blood I would be concerned they are infected. If it was dark brown, it is normal contents. I hope this helps. Kisses to Suga!
