Maureen, For the short time I had Crash, he had very loose stools and the
fumes when he had a BM, could take the paint off the walls! He had coccidia
as you know when he was very young. Then he tested positive for FeLV. But
before we knew this, my vet had put him on Royal Canin Feline High Energy
Gastro-Intestinal (HE30) dry food and it worked well for him. His stools
became formed but not near as stinky but still somewhat soft. It was not
perfect, but it certainly was an improvement. See if this will work for
yours as well.
Poop smells anyway, but when it practically takes the wallpaper/paint off,
then you have to try something. Good luck!

I doubt she could compete with my FIV + cat. It has actually woken me up in
the middle of the night. It's really bad because he doesn't cover so as
soon as I get the first whiff of it I drop everything and go running to find
which litterbox he used and cover it immediately. Even if I'm eating I put
everything down and go take care of it. It's not like I could eat anymore
anyway! Yuck. Lots of times in the middle of winter I have my patio door
wide open to get the smell out.
He's always had runny poop too. Think it's cause of the FIV? I heard that
it can have that effect on them. But then I wondered if it's something
else. Do any of you guys have FIV + cats that almost always have runny
poops?

We have an almost 19 yr old cat - I swear, I should market the smell of
her
poop: It could raise the dead! It is so potent, that I wait at night until
she makes one or two before I go to bed.....I bet she could win the
International smelliest poop contest!

Maybe your cat's poop doesn't stink! Maybe he's too good to have smelly
poop! His name is Sugar after all.
Just kidding. I can't imagine any cat not having smelly poop. Geez,
couldn't believe the difference between my cat and my dog when I got my
first cat about 6 or 7 years ago.
It's funny how there are so many different experiences with the different
kinds of litter. I guess that's why there are so many choices. It gets so
confusing though.
