My cat had a stroke that affected her back end. There was a terrifying time where we didn’t know if she’d be able to empty her own bowels anymore. I had to massage her constipation out of her.

Now her poops surprise her and she frequently runs away when it happens.

Omg, that's terrible and really funny. My cat became afraid of her tail when she was ~7yo. It was never a problem, then suddenly she was terrified of it. She got better, but only to the point that she swats it because she doesn't realize it's attached to her butt.

Happened to us with one of our old ladies who passed a couple years ago.

She was walking around all hunched for a day or so, yowling at everything. We got lucky though, the vet used a rectal thermometer and that unclogged the pipes in quick fashion!

I can only imagine the relief that cat must have felt...

For a fraction of a second. That rectum had the volumetric flow rate of an oil pipeline.

Me: “Why are you wearing a tuxedo?”

Atticus: “It’s after 6, what am I, a farmer?”

Relieved to hear that Atticus didn't have Incontinentia buttocks

Damn I had no idea I was reading a cat’s opinion on video games the last 200-odd days! What the hell, Atticus. Tell us you’re a cat if you’re gonna give me opinions on video games.

With how costly that turd was, you should have saved it and put it on display somewhere.

We can also excuse any dogs named Rex

We have a constipated cat. Our vet recommended a tiny amount of Miralax daily.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Gorgeous cat though.
