What if there is white stuff coming out of a guinea pigs butt?

Answer 1

Because he has worms and needs to go to the vet. Seriously!

(The above, not written by me...)

The previous is a potentially irresponsible reply.

Google search "yellow mucus discharge cat anus" for more information.

Long story short, all cats and dogs have anal sacs that secrete this discharge.

The exact function of these sacs is called "unknown" by more sites than otherwise.

The discharge will have a sour odor and is considered "normal" UNLESS

the area around the anus is swollen and/or the discharge is excessive.

Observe the behavior of the animal to determine is a vet visit is needed.

Impaction of the anal gland can occur, and vets will be able to expel the gland, suggest dietary changes, give antibiotics antibiotics, or in more extreme reoccurring cases suggest removal of the gland.

Answer 2

This is probably a discharge from your cat's anal glands. If it continues for a long period of time I would suggest consulting your vet to ensure that there are no other problems.

Answer 3

If it smells very strong it may be fluid being secreted from the two anal glands below the anus. These produce strong smelling oils. This of course is natural being that the glands were there from birth. The only time they are activated is if you disturb them, by stroking the top of the but or picking the cat up when it doesn't want to. The other option might be mucus. Mucus covers the large intestine letting waste move faster through it. Ask a vet if either of these happens more often.
