Hi I had this problem too it lasted a week after about 6 weeks after my kitten arrived and this is my discovery. I took my boy to the vets, he had pro-biotic paste, anti biotics and nothing worked. I researched the Bengal diet and realised a few things. Bengals as we know have sensitive tummies and can be intollerant to foods such as grain, maize, beef, and fish. They cannot digest processed meat that well some much worse than others. I completely changed my cat's diet to hypoalergenic dry food and I now raw feed him from a company that is veteneriary approved. They use human grade meats specific to their biological requirements. He was all better within 12 hrs and now he is growing fast, he is much healthier and happier and he does not even have smelly poo as raw feeding means less pooing and not at all smelly. it literally has the consistency of crumbling soil it is dry as there is less nastiness in the diet. In the wild cats will hunt and catch their live prey to eat. They are designed to eat raw muscle meat and soft bone so I thought it best to feed my part wild baby a species appropriate diet suitable for his digestion. the meat does not contain guts so no parasites as the guts are where they live, salmonela not an issue as cats already have it living in their gut naturally and bacterial infection non existent as the acidic ph within a cats gut is sooo high that very little would survive it. This is because cats are designed to eat raw meat so their bodies cope with it. canned food is packed with fillers and processed and still cooked so most of the enzymes a cat requires are lost and then they get sick. Especially the Bengal. The raw meat mince mix I use is made with high grade meats, and supplemented with vitamins and minerals that will boost everything within your cats system inside and out, such as sea kelp, bilberry and brewers yeast. He has loads of energy all the time, his coat hardly malts and it really glistens! one very happy kitty indeed. Hope this helps.

my 6 month old kitten had the same problem!!

he was fine when he first moved in with us but after a week or so he started having runny poo.

i tried many food (wet/dry), boiled chicken etc. boiled chicken seems to be better but the poo is still soft

and everytime he take a **** i can hear the fart sound! ( is it normal?)

after reading what every1 said i think im gonna feed him raw chicken for a week and see how he gets on.

(been to the vet 4 times, tried deworming, antibiotic, white meat diet... NOT HELPING)

Get your vet to send off a stool sample to QPCR test for Tritrichomonas Foetus. There is a sticky at the top of this board. The stool needs to be gathered from several poops over twenty four hours, have no litter in it and needs to be 2-5ml.

If you are in the UK Langfords, Bristol is the place for your vet to send your sample. Cat must be at least 1-2 weeks free of any antibiotics or worming before taking the sample.

Hi. I don't want to poop on your parade, but be wary of trusting it to a simple change like Royal Canin kitten. The fact that he is eating biscuits in itself will be reducing the amount of excess fluid he will poop out. You may find that this is a short term effect because of the cereals included and that the diarrhoea comes back. If it does, don't try any more changes with his food until you have had him tested for TF.

I really do hope it has stopped, but TF has a habit of being dormant then returning with a vengeance.

You guys are replying to a thread that is two years old!
