Just wondering -- when you guys change your cats over from dry to wet food, do you notice a significantly softer (and smellier) stool from your kitties? I can't tell if that's just the reason for my cats' softer stool... or if it's getting borderline diarrhea. How does one differentiate? All I know is that occassionally this past week, my kittens have been having mushier poo than usual... and wanted to know if this was normal or something I should get checked out.
They're still chipper and eating normally, so they don't seem sick... but I just want to make sure, as I'm going out of town next week and don't want their cat sitter being overwhelmed by kitty diarrhea. Should I starve them and feed chicken+rice after 24 hours? I saw some kitty diarrhea medication at the pet store -- it contains pectin & kaolin. Is that a good idea for me to use as well?
Any info you guys can provide would be great... or at least it would help cure my paranoia.
