There is mucus / jelly in my pet's poop

mucus, stool, poop

Written by SUPPORT

Pets may sometimes have a small amount of mucus or jelly-like substance on their stool. This is normal mucus secreted by the large intestine, which helps protect the intestines and allows stool to pass smoothly. In fact, it's a sign that your pet's intestines are functioning well. The mucus is helping move waste and any indigestible material smoothly through the digestive tract.


Mucus may appear a bit more than usual during a change in diet or due to temporary intestinal irritation. If your pet's condition is otherwise good and the symptom is temporary, there's usually no need to worry too much.
