I have no experience with it. I assume it is a high-fiber food? It makes your cat's stool bulkier than it was? Cat stool is normally pretty small, firm, and a bit dry. Long term, the bulky stool can impact muscle tone. Megacolon is a potential problem as a result of the unnaturally large stool. If you want to use this short term, there likely will be no problem. I hope it helps. But you may want to consider this
