Twice now i have found a formed stool with a puddle of soft poop. Both dark in color. No change in food. No other episodes. I did give them some cat lax the other night. I will have to be on poop patrol to see which cat it is and if it continues. Any ideas t why they would have both in the same bowl movement?

Hi
We need more info.
- Is this one cat or two cats? Unclear?
- How old is the cat?
- How long have you had the cats?
- Contact with other cats?
-- You gave then a laxative before the stool was soft? If yes, then that's an obvious explanation. Are the stools now well formed again? If yes, then i'd ignore but observe.

As far as i know its one cat. i found it twice, once on each day. cats are 4 years old, one is 2 and the mom is 5. The cats since birth. Mom was pg of course. We have 7 all indoors. I gave them some cat lax the other day, So could that cause it? Both BM's had a formed stool with a pudding like stool with it. havent found any since.
If you just gave them a cat laxative, then I think it could be the cause of the soft poop. Watch it for a couple more days. It should be re-forming to a normal consistancy.
A Laxative is a stool softener so if you give a cat a stool softener and their stool becomes soft.....yes that could be the cause. :-)
