Gassy Kitten....

I recently took Puff inside. He was a stray kitten. He has been to the vet and been dewormed with revolution. But he has bad gas. Is there anything to help him?

Assuming the Vet did a thorough physical, most likely it is dietary. Are his poops solid or runny? What  do you feed him? One of mine had this problem which I fixed by lowering the fiber in her diet. Most dry food, especially the cheap ones, are very high in fiber. 

Kittens can need more than one round of worming, especially if a stray.  Roundworms are the problem worm in the UK and can be treated with Panacur (from the Internet) or Milbemax (from the vet).

My Truffles seems to have smelly gas at least twice a day as well,I've had her for 2 weeks and she is being fed wellness grain free canned food,we were giving her 3 tablespoons per day but are dropping to twice a day to see if it helps her and wellness (non grain free) dry food. She has been dewormed and was on antibiotics for 2 weeks until two weeks ago,had them for 2 weeks and was also given an injection for her URI.  She doesn't seem to eat too fast or alot of her dry food at one time but am thinking it could be due to the antibiotics she was given.  Any ideas of what I could do or try if it continues?  She has normal bowel movements and doesn't seem ill in any way,running around and getting exercise.

I would give her half a human dose of a human acidophilus probiotic. I use Natural Factors double-strength acidophilu+bifidus You could use the regular one -
Just sprinkle one capsule on a wet food meal daily. It should help by restoring the balance of good gut bacteria in the colon.

I just must share this...

One of my girls had soft poop and gas for years. She would jump in my neighbor's lap and share her inner most personal gas with them. We laughed. She developed seizures about 2 years ago and now have her on phenobarbital. Since then, no gas and nice hard poop. Go figure.

Mia had horrible gas when I got her at 7 weeks old. She would hop up on my shoulder in the mornings while I was on the computer and always seemed to do it in my face. ACK!!!  Anyway, by the time she was around 8 months it had dissapeared. I myself believed it was a "kitten thing" as I've had other cats the same way when they were kittens. Mac on the otherhand I have never smelled (he just turned 6 months, have had him since he was 6 weeks).  He has never been on kitten food though. He eats what Mia does.
