wierd white stuff on kitten butt

i came home from work today to find that my cat has a white scab like thing on her rectum , at first i thought it was a piece of litter stuck to her so i got a damp rag and attempted to wipe it off, only to realize it is actually apart of her skin. she has already had both of her de worming treatments and her first 2 rounds of shots , she is an indoor cat, and is only about 3 monthes old. what could this possibly be????

Hi
well it could just be a scab, formed after your kiiten perhaps groomed too much or scratched herself in that area. the only other thing I can think is that it is a growth of some sort.

if it were me I would wait a few days more to see if the scab starts to heal and fade or not. If not then i would get it looked at by a vet in case it is some sort of growth.

best wishes Kate
