There are two reasons that can explain why he is licking him bum.
First one is that he could just be cleaning himself. Cats do not have cloths or sponges to clean themselves so they lick. If he does is it a few times per day, that is just him cleaning himself.
The second reason is that he may have worms. Have you been worming him every month (or two, read label to see how often you should be worming)? If not, then it is very possible that he has worms. The worms usually come out in the poop so take a stool sample to the vet for them to examine it, and your cat.
If it turns out that he does not have worms, take him to the vet. There may be something else wrong with him.
you cannot stop him. don’t let the kids let him lick them and dont let him lick the dinner plates. he has yo lick it to keep it clean, unless you wanna wipe it for him, lol!
Put some hot sauce on it!:)
Excessive Butt licking is a good sign of Worms. Deworm the cat. This can be done with most over the counter worm medications that you can pick up at the pet store. You can also take it to a vet.
It’s important to do this, as the worms can be spread to people. While it’s not overly dangerous, it is extremely gross. It’s probably round worms, which move in and out of the opening causing itching and discharge. They appear as small wiggling threads in stool (but aren’t always obvious unless it’s an advanced infestation) or like wiggling rice grains.
Cats clean themselves by licking, That is how cats are. If that bothers you unbearably find someone who is used to cats and likes them to give him a good home.
You keep him from licking the dinner plates by not gioving him dinner plates to lick and not allowing him around human dishes at all. You keep him from licking fingers and fraces the same way don’t offer them to lick
.If the cat licks his back end constantly he may have worms and need to see a vet for worm treatment.
Try taking it to a vet and having it dewormed. If you don’t want to do that, you could always lick his anus for him.
no way darling
cat’s don’t have the ability to use toilet paper. either you let it clean it’s anus the way nature intended it to, or you can do it for him lol. it will not stop cleaning itself. thats like someone trying to stop you from showering.
You can’t stop him from liking himself, but u can stop him from licking kids’ faces, fingers and plates. PLZ don’t hurt him if u don’t want him Send him back to the shelter or give him to some1 who loves animals.
I Want to say to the second answerer about puting hot sauce on it, i want to say that God will send some1 to put the HOT SAUCE in ur EYES.
