Why is my cat leaving poop stains? What causes messy cat butt?

Question

Why my cat leave poop stain sometimes. Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Male | unneutered | 5 years and 10 months old

Dr. Elizabeth · Accepted Answer

Staining can be related to not cleaning well (some cats are not as clean as others), a loose/messy stool, not being able to reach the rectal area well to clean (like is Ashes is over weight) or longer fur that gets the stool on it. I recommend to figure out what is happening and try to address it appropriately. If it appears related to a looser stool, have Ashes checked by the veterinarian for parasites or bacterial issues. If the food is suspected to be the issue, I recommend to brand Royal Canin. It often results in less stool production and a good stool quality. I hope this helps.
