My cat rubbed against me and when his butt rubbed my arm, I felt something wet. I looked at his rear-end and noticed what appeared to be a pink, fleshy, tiny tube shaped thing(it was not his penis, it was more towards his anal region). I used some paper towel and warm water to wipe his anal area where it was, and I noticed that there was a transfer of what appeared to be blood. The blood looked like it was right above his scrotum, but not coming from the anus itself. I wiped the area down some more, and I haven't seen anymore blood or the tube-like thing again, but I'm still a bit worried about him. He didn't seem to be in any pain when I wiped the area, didn't meow or anything. And other than that, he's been his normal self, playing, affectionate, eating and drinking normal. I am just wondering what that could have possibly been. Is it possible that it was something like a hemmorroid? Or maybe a cut from when he was cleaning himself? Can anybody offer me some advice on this situation? I am already contemplating taking him to the vet, but if it is something not to worry about, I'd rather not(he's not easy to get in that cat carrier!)
