Hey everyone!
I adopted a 13 year old cat named Minnie about a month ago. She's had very smelly, loose stool since I brought her home. I was given a bag of Science Diet, which is what she had been eating, so I figured that was likely the problem. I started mixing her SD with Natural Balance L.I.D. canned, just so I could try weaning her off the kibble. Now, she's only eating canned food. However, she just had the worst bout of diarrhea yet. She's from a working environment, so she did see a vet fairly frequently. Unfortunately, there was no definitive cause for it. She does have a positive coronavirus test, but I know that doesn't necessarily mean she has FIP. I can't afford to take her to the vet just now, so I was wondering if there was anyone that had any experience similar to mine. I did try her on Nature's Variety raw bites, but she threw up immediately after both times I tried it, so I figured a slower transition would be better. Her stomach seems to be a little finicky.
Any help would be great, guys. I'm feeling kind of at my wit's end.
