Poppy's been eating raw for a week now. Even though it's only a 25% replacement her poop is way down. She still poops once a day, but today there were two bits of poop, about 1" each, and much smaller in diameter. I know poop is supposed to go down, but I'm surprised at what happened with only 25% replacement. I imagine at 50% maybe she won't poop everyday.

Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
Most of mine poop every 2 or 3 days - but some of them eat very little food. I have a 7 pound kitty that eats just 3 ounces a day (2.7% of her body weight), and an 8 pound kitty that eats just 2.7 ounces a day (2.1% of her body weight). I only have one kitty that continues to poop every day. He eats the same amount as 4 of the others (4.2 ounces a day) ... he just poops less more frequently. :dk: I guess he just likes to evacuate his bowels every day? :dk:
