Bad Smelling Cat Poop! Help!

Do you feed your cat wet food? Wet food for some reason always causes a strong odor. I feed my cats Purina Indoor Cat formula it is a dry food and every now and again we get some strong smells but usually that is after one of my kids have left their food out and the cats get into it.

Hey. My kitty stinks up the whole house, too. He's strictly an indoor cat and so we started getting him the Purina Indoor Cat Formula. We also started to put a little bit of liquid chlorophyll in his water (which we got at a GNC). It really has seemed to help!
Good luck!

I have always heard it is caused from canned food. We only feed dry, Eukanuba Chicken, but once in a while my mom will bring some canned food over and then they get stinky!

I'm not sure if it's bad or not, but there are pet foods out there that you can get. They're usually called "Indoor Cat Formula" or something like that. We have three cats and at times they get pretty stinky,too. We bought that for them and it has helped immensely, if not perfectly.

I hope this idea helps and works. Good luck!

Usually thats nothing to worry about. What kind of food do you feed? Ususally the fish flavored foods cuase stinky poop. i give my cats chicken flavored cat food. I will ask my vet about it today and get back to you though.

If your cat goes outside, (don't laugh) it could be because of crickets and/or lizards.

I had a cat that was fine until she started to eat lizards and crickets. Then, all bets were off!! Girl stunk to high heaven!!

Just a thought!

Worms and other parisites can cause awful smelling poop. Try giving your cat yogurt (a little at a time). Make sure the yogurt has "active cultures" on the container. If you want to get her checked, it probably will be costly. You can also try giving her wet canned cat food. Good luck!

Has your cat been eating cheese or drinking milk? One of mine loves to eat it, but it is not good for the cats. Cats get diarrea from milk. Mine also sneaks people food, which causes the most horrendeous smelling poop. Try cat grass, you can get it at any pet store or walmart. You cat may just be stressed because it knows another "attention getter" is coming soon.

even if you haven't changed your cat's dry food, the company may have changed the food's formula, and that may be causing the problem.

what kind of food are is the cat eating? cats are obligate carnivors, which means they don't digest plant sources very well (i.e. the rice, wheat, etc you find in a lot of cat foods because they're cheap) it may be beneficial to try a cat food like EVO or Solid Gold and see if that helps.

also, just as a alternate thing, is there any chance that the you're using the air conditioner now & you weren't a few months ago & the air by the litterbox is now being circulated around the house?
