So, we just got home after a weekend away. One of our cats, Seth - our Egyptian Mau, has a wound just under and to the left side of his rectum. It is red and a little bloody but it is not bleeding, and he isn''t behaving any differently. He seems perfectly fine and isn''t even licking it much. It is a perfect hole - looks like he sat on a nail or something. My first thought was perhaps he got into a squabble with our other cat, Electra, and she bit him - but the hole is perfectly round (and the skin around the hole is missing). We weren''t able to find any blood anywhere on the floor or on the furniture, so it doesn''t seem that it has bled. The litter box is normal. I will be dropping him off to his vet in the morning - but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas of what this could be. I was thinking maybe he had an anal sac rupture - but if that is the case it looks as if he may have removed his anal sac by himself. Is that even possible? Maybe it was impacted and he removed what was impacting the sac? I''m baffled.
