Keep your cat’s backside clean

Yuck! Sometimes after using the litter box, your pal gets bits of poop stuck to his backside. To prevent this messy problem, vets suggest giving him a more digestible diet. To find the perfect cat food, read the label and look for one that has less than 12 percent fiber, 33 percent protein and 14 percent fat—a mix that ensures his stool will be firmer and won’t stick to his fur.
