I adopted my cat (domestic shorthair) from a charity six weeks ago when he was 9 months old. He is a lovely, friendly cat who does go outside but seems to prefer to use his litter tray. He has always had very loose poo and we have tried him on a few different foods, but it hasn't helped.
About three weeks ago he started leaking diahorrea. Not all the time but enough to leave a stain wherever he was sleeping, and trails of it over the (cream!) carpets at least once a day. We took him to the vet who said she didnt think there was anything wrong with him and we should try him on hypo-allergenic food. This hasn't made any difference.
The next stage, apparently, will be tests for parasites. He is wormed. I just wondered if anyone had any ideas about what this could be? It may also be relevant that he is constantly hungry and begging for food. He is insured but the excess on the policy is quite high and if I can avoid the tests then it would be helpful.
TIA.
