Smelly poops may be caused by the food they are eating. Trying different foods seems to me to be a much easier and gentler method than having their colon cleaned out.

It would also be easier to have her stool checked for any parasites (i.e. just as humans can get giardia from contaminated well water or city water, so can cats).

I too would check the stool and then look at diet ... I wouldnt cleanse a cat just due to them not being able to say thats too much
