Hello !
I have a kitten thatsbeen with us for around a week now and hes about 2 months old!
Very cute tux cat thats very very playful and gives lots of love.
Anyway ive been feeding him whiskas gold mince pouches mixed with a bit of cat dry food but he seems to be having diarrhea every 3 poop ?
Cleaning his poops just then i saw that his poo was mixed with cat litter crystals.
Ive seen him trying to eat them time to time but it seems like he has been munching on them.
Is this because of the litter ?
And would anyone know why hes eating it ? He uses the litter tray perfectly !
Or could it be the food ?
I give him 3 types of rhe gold mince
Salmon chicken and veal and he eats all 3 well !

Thanks in advance

Please make sure that the litter is a non clumping litter. Kittens for some reason sometimes eat litter and the clumping litter will cause health issues.  I would look at only feeding him on flavour for a while, then you can see if he is allergic to any protein. Is the food grain free?
