Why do long hair cats often have issues with getting poop stuck in their fur, and what can be done to prevent this problem?

Long hair cats often have issues with getting poop stuck in their fur because their long hair can trap feces and make it difficult for them to clean themselves properly. To prevent this problem, regular grooming and trimming of the fur around the hindquarters can help keep the area clean and reduce the likelihood of poop getting stuck in their fur. Additionally, providing a high-fiber diet can help regulate their bowel movements and reduce the chances of messy accidents.
