Poor Lucky! Pets don't get hemorrhoids. I would be concerned this is rectal prolapse: https://www.petcoach.co/article/rectal-prolapse-protruding-rectum-in-the-cat/ Lucky needs to be examined by the veterinarian today. Bring in a fresh stool sample. The underlying cause needs to be identified and corrected. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
