HELP! Is it what I am feeding them? They're horrible! lol

They're eating just Happy Tails Complete Nutrition for cats of all ages.

They are kittens -- is this any influence? 13 wks. and 9 wks.

While I was feeding Iams my kiitens would fart a lot.
I don't know anything about the food your feeding.

When I brought Monte home, he was eating Iams at the breeders house so that is what I got him.........NOT GOOD! I could not believe that something so small could clear a room like he did!
My vet said that Iams is a very rich food and suggested trying a better food for him.

I fed my cats Nutro, Iams, Science diets while they were 4-months old. 1 kitten farted no matter what food I gave her, the other two kittens tend to fart when I grab them at the tummy... Or whenever they have their b*tt hole facing my face
... So I just thought it's a cat thing... natural... As long as they are not having diarriah or anything...

Have they been checked for worms? Abby had that problem when we got her from the shelter and it was a combo of worms and her diet. I am happy to report we no longer have that problem.

Could be the food. Get the vet to see if she has any other health problems.. then consider changing her diet (slowly though). Ask your vet for a recommended food after he's seen your kitty. Different cats may have digestive problems with different kinds of food.

During the brief time my cats were on Friskies, Catsy farted up a storm and had mild diarrhoea, but Wukong had no problems at all. Ironically Catsy is about 7 months older than Wukong, so if anyone had a problem, I expected it to be the younger one.
