Hello,
Sorry to sound so graphic, hehe, but our 3 month old kitten has very stinky poo right now. It wasn't this bad when he first got here but lately it has been REALLY stinky. It is also slightly soft, not firm like our adult cat's, and it sort of sticks together. Normal color though. The adoption agency said that his antibiotics could cause soft stool but he hasn't had the medicine for 5 days now. He also likes to get into the adult cat's food. Could the adult food be causing the stinky and soft poo? Another of my threads talks about how the adult cat will only eat kitten food. Well, I have come to the conclusion that it's not the food but the bowl it's in. She just refuses to use her own bowls now and will only use the kitten's! But the kitten now eats from her bowl! (It's pretty funny. Her's is a raised bowl and the kitten has to jump up onto the raised part and lean down into the bowl so he can eat. Pretty soon he'll be too big to do it!) So, I just don't know what to do! Any advice? I could put the adult food back on the floor but I'm afraid the kitten will eat even more of it if I do this.
Thanks!
