Hello~ I will try to keep our introductions short but these kittens are so cute! 
Anyways, on 4/18/2014 I adopted a 3- to 4-week old stray kitten. He was on the bottle with people who found him but he took to cat food real quick with. I named him Prince. 
On 4/30/2014 a local cat rescue found a 5-week old Siamese kitten for Prince to grow up with. Such a doll! I named her Charmy and adopted her right away. 
Now, both my kittens are on a free feed of Instinct dry food that I recently (today) added in Blue Buffalo for Kittens. Three times a day I feed my kittens Blue Buffalo wet food. This they seem to tolerate well until a few days ago. 
Their poop really smells! It is formed but soft and a pale brown color. Both kittens are active (though Charmy sleeps a lot, especially if I cuddle her then she falls asleep right away.)
Prince would eat endlessly if I let him, he even eats Charmy's food. I feed them from separate bowls but Charmy leaves her bowl without finishing the food - she eats most of it though. 
Should I worry? 
Also, Prince cries a lot. I just thought he was a chatty Cathy but maybe I am wrong? 
Prince has seen a vet but Charmy hasn't been because I figured she was seen by the shelter vets. 
They have both been dewormed and are still too young and small to get vaccinated. 
Any advice? I added cat litter baking soda to their litter box today to help with the smell. >>;; It's not working… 
Halp!!!

The smelly poop may be from the new addition of wet food.  They are very small to be eating solid food, so their systems may need more time to adjust to it.  I would ask the vet to be sure, though, especially if its runny.
