You can try to ease it out. Use some vaseline and gently massage the outside of the rectum to stimulate her. If this doesn't work, then visit your vet to have some help here; however, unless it is stuck to hair it should come out on its own. You can also try a warm saline only enema to see if that can loosen things up. Best of luck to you and I hope that you get Fluffy comfortable soon! Take care.
