My 8 year old cat Junior has been stinking up the place really bad the past few day - hasn't eaten anything different, doesn't go outside, there is nothing moving in his mushy stool so I ruled out worms...can anyone advise what this might be & to do about it ?
He could have developed a new allergy to a food - are you certain there's been nothing new in terms of foods or treats lately? Sometimes people forget about treats ...
You could always take a stool sample to your vet and have it checked out.
Oh, yeah - he does get treats but the same ones since kitty hoodQuote:

Hope Junior is okay. Give him a little ear scratch for me. :)
Hey there, welcome to the forum!
Since you say it's been a few days, probably not a 24 hour bug, lol.
What food do you feed? You can switch to a limited ingredient diet to give his system a rest, Natural Balance offers several.
