I got Chance a week before Halloween and he was around 9 weeks old. He's a long hair Cat (his picture is attached). Today I was goofing around with him and noticed this large ball of poop stuck to his backend. I tried pulling it off, but it wouldnt budge. So i took him to the kitchen sink and wet him down with warm water and proceeded to take it off. I had to cut away alot of his hair down there to get it all off, but as i was pulling the dried stuff off, there was fresh poop coming out of his backend, as if he was impacked. So after i got him dried off and settled down, i looked at his anus, and its all stretched and has clear fluid coming out and he doesnt want to walk at all. I did get him to drink some water and eat a little bit. I don't know what to do with him. I cant afford to take him to the Vet Any suggestions or help you could give would greatly be appericated.
