Apart from how she found out Antonio needed anal sacks expressed, how do you know if your cat needs this done?  Just curious.

When I went home to take Antonio to the vet's...he went in the laundry room - turned his back end toward me, squatted over the dust pan (something he would NEVER do)...and assumed 'the position' for a few minutes....he was telling mama something is wrong.  He looked like he was trying to go potty but nothing was going on.
 
We just got back from the vet's.  That poor sweet boy had some very infected anal sacs.  I feel bad because I didn't know sooner.  They expressed them and gave him a steroid shot and an antibiotic shot.  Antonio was such a trooper.  He loves everybody.  He's not at all afraid to ride in the car.  After the vet did what must have been a very painful procedure - Antonio gave the vet head butts.  He loved on the vet tech too.  He's just the sweetest big ol' boy.
 
He's taking Clavamox.  We go back Monday for a check-up.
