Stud tail presents itself as a brown, sappy substance at the base of a cat's tail. Sometimes is has a foul odor.
It occurs in males (usually due to stress) and is nothing serious. The secretion comes from a gland located at
the base of the cat's tail. To treat it, first shave the area. This will allow the skin to breathe better.
Wiping the area with alcohol may cause severe pain and burning if the skin is raw.
Instead, try one of the many feline shampoos made exclusively for stud tail. They work very well.
