If there are white objects sticking out of your cat's behind, it does sound like she has worms. I would get a deworming treatment for her, I recommend Panacur. You can get that OTC. Give her a dose now, then another treatment of it in two weeks. After that, she should be dewormed every three months to prevent them from occurring again.
