Cat discharging blood and mucus from anus

I have a female cat (4yo mix breed female neutered) that just in the last 2 days has been discharging mucus and blood from her anus, and has been less active than normal. She is not eating as much as usual. What can it be? Is it serious?

Dog leaving brown marks on carpet

Our Lab Sophie (8yo female neutered) is leaving brown marks on the carpet. It has been going on for the past 2 months. Very light marks. It is not coming from her paws as I have checked very closely. It does smell a bit like feces. We have checked her for worms, gave her several baths, and had her anal glands looked at. The vet thought she did not not them expressed. As we have twin girls who arer ready to crawl I would really like to stop these stains! Your help is appreciated. Thanks.

Puppy coughing

I bought a puppy from the humane society. It is a lab mix male that was neuterd last friday. The vet noticed the puppy had a cough so he gave him some antibiotics to take for a couple of days. The puppy has finished the antibiotics but still has a cough and now a runny nose. He coughs so hard I think he is trying to throw up but doesn’t. Is this normal or should I take him back to the doctors? He seems to sleep alot more that he did when I first got him home. He is 2 and 1/2 months old.
