I have been away for holiday for a week so i have placed my mainecoon under care by my breeder.

I passed my breeder the food ( both dry and wet ) that my maine's have been eating since 2 months old.

After collecting him back home 2 days ago, I noticed he have been having "score 6" poop while clearing his litter box.

This is the first time I seen him having it. Is it normal ??

diet is the same. No changes.

Well, it's not normal, but I wouldn't worry too much YET.  You might call your breeder and verify that they DID feed him per your instructions and didn't just feed him what they fed the rest of the cats.  Tell them what is going on and that's why you are asking.  This could be the results of a food change, or it could simply be from the stress of being passed back and forth.

How is he acting otherwise?  Does everything else seem normal.  Does he still have his normal appetite?  Is he still playing and acting like his normal self?  If not, then I would take him in to be seen, especially if this doesn't clear up soon.  In the meantime, you could try just giving him a little bit of yogurt (NOT sugarfree).  flavored is ok, plain is better, but flavored won't hurt as long as it doesn't have artificial sweeteners in it)

It could very well be stress poop, kitties hate moving around and the situation change probably stressed him out to an extent, even if you don't notice a change in his behavior. If it's not back to normal within the week then I would take him to the vet. But at this point, I wouldn't worry about it.

His behaving very normally. Climbing, running, jumping chasing things around. And yes, eating normally etc.
