Pinky is a healthy cat, acts normal, eats a healthy amount and is social and all but I was getting ready for a shower today and she came in to do her deed. I looked over at it making the pee-yu face as a joke and noticed it was a pale yellow! :/

Is this alright for cats? I mean I literally haven't seen one of her stools look like that and it certainly gave me more than the usual ick factor I get from stool!

Do you think she has a parasite? Or maybe just found something around the house that wasn't to her stomach's liking? (I try to keep this place clean but you NEVER know!)

I sound like a freak out mommy, but I literally have never seen a cat's stool such an odd color! Should I request a stool jar from our vet to get her tested? Thoughts? Concerns? Thanks guys.

If Pinky has not eaten anything unusual and there has been no change in what you have been feeding her, I would have the stool checked out. Some parasites, like coccidia, can cause a yellow stool.

Thanks, I'll definitely get it checked. Parasites are no fun
