What does it mean when maggots are coming out of your cats butt

Nothing good. At nbest it means the cat has an infection. You need to talk to the vet.

You really should take the cat to the vet. But I understand that money is tight. My next idea is to talk to a pharmacist. There might be something over the counter. Just tell the pharmacist that your cat has worms. See if there is a simple solution.

Damn, I forgot about worms. Unfortunately it's been a while since I've been able to have a cat. Those worms can look a lot like maggots. Most pet stores carry basic worming medicines.

I might be mistaken, but maggots indicate a dead animal. Since the cat is alive I assumed it was worms.  Hopefully, you should be able to resolve this easily . good luck to you and your kitty.

wow dumb ass cats/dogs "DONT" get maggots!!!(not if they are alive anyway) worms will look a lot like maggots and the one that looks like that is called tape worms. tape worms r not the biggest deal as long as they are treated asap!! you can get the meds from just about any drug store or vet. but the cheapest i have found is petmeds, if you are to lazy to look for the number it is 1-800-petmeds. its even free so u dont have to pay for the call!! get the cat some help soon!!!!
