Question

my cat is 3 months ago

Answer 1

Hi Maya...stinky poo is caused by any of the commercially available cat food products such as Whiskas, Purina, Science Diet, IAMs sold in supermarkets and pet stores which contain corn, corn meal which ferment as it broken down within the digestive system leading to very stinky poo. Feeding human food as treats also can contribute to smelly poo as well. However, this also depends on the animal's genetics as well. Like humans, when two people eat the very same thing one person's business may stink to high heaven moreso than another (we can't compare our own poo since we'd obviously be biased.) I have two cats who's genetic makeup are quite different from one another (F1 Bengal --1/2 wild & 1/2 domestic -- and Abyssinian). They both eat the same identical high premium quality foods yet the Bengal's poo is so strong it would make a good substitute for chloroform, where the Aby's isn't so bad and is very tolerable.

Some of the high protein cat foods (which contains no corn based products or byproducts) found only at specialty pet stores such as Innova EVO, Life's Abundance, Nature's Variety Prairie may help minimize the stinky calling cards, but again it truly depends on the cat's genetic makeup. They are quite expensive compared to the supermarket and chain pet stores brands, but if your intended goal is to lower the overall gas chamber effect you may need to experiment which works best.

Answer 2

Switching cat foods all the time can do it and low quality food will cause an odor. Try giving the cat better quality food and do not constantly switch brands as that could upset the kitties stomach. Good luck.

Answer 3

Personally, I find most cats have offensive smelling feces.Diet change may not help. I trained mine to bury hers outside. After litter box training, I moved it near the back door and then moved it outside and always showed the cat. After 2 weeks with the box outside, I put fresh litter in the yard and removed the box. After a week, my cat defecated outside, I then stopped furnishing the litter and she uses the doggy door to do her business outside. Have a great year.

Answer 4

If you are not currently feeding your kitten a good premium cat food you may want to consider it. Foods such as Natural Balance, Iams, Percise, Purina One all make good foods. Foods such as Whiskas, KitNKabooble, 9Lives will definately make your cats stool smell bad. I would consider switching to a better quality premium food. If you have not had your cat checked for parasites I would strongly recommend that you do that as well. Good Luck.

Answer 5

Cheaper store brand food will definitely affect your cats feces. I would try a more quality food. Unfortunately they do cost more money. Another thing you could try is using a scoop able litter with really good odor absorbers. I like tidy cat and arm and hammer. Hopefully your cat will cover.

Answer 6

A good idea is to clean out the poo of your litter tray daily. When they do a poo, scoop it up and flush it down the toilet. This will get rid of the smell and help keep your litter tray cleaner and smelling nice.

Answer 7

the better quality cat food you feed your cat the less your cats feces will smell...also you can sprinkle some arm and hammer carpet fresh into the bottom of your litter box after you change it this will help for awhile

Answer 8

Of course it smells. What I ususally do is remove the poop and the smell goes away.

Answer 9

fishy cat food makes for smellier poop too.
