    Poo? POO? When did poop become poo? My god! If it's poop. . .well, never mind. If you have extra starchy "poo", buy the bleach tablets they sell to place in your tank. Keeps the bowl free of. . .stuff.

    1) "Mucus-like Feces:
    These feces are mixed with mucus and they seem like a bit sticky. They are caused by the inflammation of gastrointestinal due to the presence of protozoa such as Salmonella or Amebic colitis."

    "As you said it might be a symptom of rectum problem but in certain cases it might not be, so I advise you to consult your doctor to further diagnose in details for the timely treatment. Try to check what’s wrong is your diet and your lifestyle."

    2) "The major cause of sticky poo and thus the need to wipe more is grease and fats in the poo."

    3) "You're both eating the wrong diet. Add a banana to every meal and things will be much better. Enough soluble fiber and you'll hardly need toilet paper at all, like yer dog."

    4) "Steatorrhea is the presence of excess fat in feces. Stools may also float due to excess lipid, have an oily appearance and be especially foul smelling. An oily anal leakage or some level of fecal incontinence may occur. There is increased fat excretion, which can be measured by determining the fecal fat level. While definitions have not been standardised, fat excretion in feces in excess of 0.3 (g/kg)/day is considered indicative of steatorrhea."

    "Possible biological causes can be lack of bile acids (due to liver damage or hypolipidemic drugs), defects in pancreatic juices (enzymes), and defective mucosal cells. The absence of bile acids will cause the feces to turn gray or pale. Another cause of steatorrhea is due to the adverse effect of Octreotide which is an analog of somatostatin used clinically to treat acromegaly."

    "Steatorrhea can also be due to eating non-digestible oils or fats such as Olestra, and a side-effect of medicines that prevent the absorption of dietary fats such as Orlistat"

    Probably it's due to a certain lack of fiber in your diet.
