My cat Pooka has had diarrhea for a long time now(on and off about a year). It is really awful smelling and we for the longest time thought it was because of her teeth being infected. We finally saved 200 dollars and got that taken care of and she still has diarrhea. I believe now, due to the on and off nature of her loose stools that it is a food allergy. She only eats wet food unlike our other cats so I was wondering what everyone recommends to try?
I was thinking of doing a selective diet such as; all chicken one week, all beef another and then all fish based. Only catch is she refuses to eat any wet food but Friskies(I know...yuk)and I was wondering if maybe Friskies adds a color/preservative that may be causing it as well. I am at my wits end...and need some serious advice. HELP!
P.S. When I say refuses, I mean REFUSES. She will starve herself to death if we don't give her Friskies, I know I tried and she nearly died.
