I've never noticed our two boy cats have "problems", but I've read here that chickens can create a mighty wind. I've never seen that either. I've got to pay closer attention.
I have never known of cats to have that problem either...didn't know horses could either, until my dad was moving his to a different pasture. His gelding, Friday, went running in, kicking up his heels, and let one rip!! I thought it was dad at first, till Friday went kickin his heels, and ripped another one!! Thank God he's outside!!
But I know what you mean, dog gas is killer!! My golden retriever, Ben, could clear a room in seconds!!
