Smelly Cats!

My vet says the same thing. Mine get a mixture.

Can't really help the OP with the gas problem. Can you ask the vet about giving it gas-x or beano? Are you giving it milk?

Gratuitous comment- Could be worse. I have a cat that had to have it's large intestine removed. I deal with the odor and residue daily. Won't go into anymore detail, but let's say; I wouldn't do it again.

Many cats can't tolerate the lactose in cow's milk. Some handle it fine, while others end up with diarrhea, gas, and cramping. If you are giving yours milk, you might want to rethink that ... cheese, yogurt, and cottage cheese don't affect them that way, though, in my experience.

Cottage cheese is high in Lactose. Yogurt and HARD cheeses are not. Any soft cheese is a potential lactose issue.

Lactose intolerant...

Mixing dry food into the wet has seemed to help quite a bit!

Instead of getting knocked over multiple times a day by all 3 cats, I am maybe walking through a dust cloud 2-3 times a day!

I think they might have been ingesting alot of air. I will continue to mix for another week or so, and hope this is the answer!

Glad to hear that helps.
The stories about the gassing kitty's had me about busting a gut laughing.
Been there with kitty gas so I know.
Our 4 only seem to do it to DH
