Hi. My 2 year old female street cat pooped outside her litter box after a long time. The last time she did this, her anal sacs were impacted. If I attach a video, can a doctor tell me if it's the same issue again? Are her anal sacs impacted?
. She is licking that area more frequently than usual also. I'm extremely concerned. She is also an indoor cat and never steps outside the house.

Hi mam..Anal glands normally empty when a cat poops..If the anal gland fails to empty, the materials inside become thicker, which makes it harder for them to empty in the future...Over time, the glands can become inflammed, swollen , painful...Cats with Anal gland impaction starts licking or chewing at the anal region..They may be reluctant to sit or poop...To treat an anal gland , a Vet will sqeeze the gland in just the correct way to push the secreations out of the duct..
