Poor Roscoe! It's not normal to bleed from the anus after bowel movements, and the thing you see sticking out of his anus could be a tumor, impacted and infected anal sac, or his rectum could be prolapsed. Roscoe could see a vet right away for this, and I would bring him into a vet ASAP to be examined so this can be treated.

Hello. I’m not sure if you meant to attach a photo, but there is no photo with your post. Blood drops from the anal area can indicate numerous things. He could have an anal sac abscess, a bleeding polyp, hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, an injury, a foreign body. Without an exam, we cannot diagnose this. We also are not legally allowed to prescribe any medication on this site....we are strictly a question and answer service. I’m afraid that this will require a veterinarian examination to determine the cause and to get the proper treatment.
