I have an 18 pound cat (11 years old) that I switched from eating Friskies dry to Natural Balance dry over the past two months. I recently (past two weeks) started feeding her the low-calorie blend of Natural Balance, and her stools have gotten VERY stinky! They are firm and appear normal and she doesn't look sick.
Also I have a 13 pound kitty (10 years old) that looks like she just doesn't feel good after eating (this is after eating Friskies wet food; I have yet to find a healthier canned food that they will eat). She has been checked by the vet and there is apparently nothing wrong.
I am wondering if a probiotic might help both of these issues. From what I understand, probiotics can be used for smelly gas in humans but I am unsure if it would help the smelly stools Emily is making.
I have a local pet store that sells kitty probiotics and they are inexpensive; my main question is if these (or something else) might help the horrendous smell of Emily's stools and Ashley's sick feeling after eating; also if probiotics can be used on a regular basis in cats without repercussions.
Thank you!
