A wet rag with warm water or veg oil will moisten the bits and you use the rag to squeeze and grab them so you can pull them off. Keeping the hair as short as possible around the anus will help the cat keep itself clean.

What is the difference between a male and female cat?

The best way to tell what gender a cat is, it by looking underneath the base of its tail. A male cat that has not been neutered will have two furry testicles right below the anus, and a penis right below the testicles. A neutered male cat will not have visible testicles, but there will be a noticeable space between its anus and penis. Spayed and intact female cats alike will have a genital opening (vulva) which is a tear-drop shape located right below the anus.

Your cat has an inflamed anus with what looks like a black thorn on the side of the anus?

I'm not a veterinarian, but it's possible that the thorn or object could be causing irritation and inflammation in your cat's anus. It's important to take your cat to a veterinarian for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment to address the cause and alleviate any discomfort. Avoid trying to remove the object yourself, as it could lead to further injury.


How can you tell if your cat is a boy or a girl?

The best way to tell what gender a cat is, it by looking underneath the base of its tail. A male cat that has not been neutered will have two furry testicles right below the anus, and a penis right below the testicles. A neutered male cat will not have visible testicles, but there will be a noticeable space between its anus and penis. Spayed and intact female cats alike will have a genital opening (vulva) which is often seen as a tear-drop shape located right below the anus. Please note that checking for nipples is not an accurate way of telling a cat's gender - male cats can have nipples too! They just have no function, much the same as human males have nipples but have no use for them.


How can you tell if a male cat is neutered?

A male cat will no longer have testicles. He may still retain the furry pouch (called the scrotum) where the testicles once were, but it will be empty and much reduced in size compared to an intact male cat. Bear in mind if your cat has just been neutered the testicles still may be visible. It takes around 6 weeks for the hormones to calm down, so the testicles will shrink over this period. A male cat has a larger gap between the anus and penis, whereas a female cat's vulva is situated closer to the anus.
