Hmmm. My puppy had that problem for a little bit. I was feeding him something different then he was used to though. He adjusted and the problem went away. (Thank God)

You can wait it out or slowly switch her to something different.

She has been this way for about a month.. (gasp) seems to worsen when she sits on my lap...
I noticed ear mites and I'm treating her for them now.. I hope it's them upsetting her system.. And she gets better, or we will have to have a long distance relationship..

Which food is it? My kids have occasionally had a problem with purina cat chow, but never with Eukanuba or Iams. Though with the expensive stuff, they seem to barf more. Oh well, good luck...
And I know from experiance that kitty gas is NOT a laughing matter. Ick...

Kabuki....

Sorry, I shouldn't be laughing...HAHAHAHAH....A CAT??? wooohahah...we had a neighbor with a dog, one of them weiner dogs (really short legs) and he was the sweetest little guy you ever met...for about, oh, 5 minutes....then, BOOYAA!! Silent, but DEADLY!

They took him to the vet, he was diagnosed as having worms.
Come to think of it, there are over-the-counter medications for that (keep it on the inexpensive side).

Maybe you could do a net search on pets and worms, check out the symptoms, maybe that's it...?

**Heh..cats...BOOOYAAAA!!!**

If it were me, I'd put the cat outside, or at least light a candle to help with the smell.

with purina cat chow,

Geez,, I have Iams too, but they won't eat it... oh well guess it's time for another hunger strike.. Iams it is.. (yep all of it is dry)
Thanks

I'd put the cat outside,

It's a kitten, and she'd be coyote food soon....

Hey there ain't even DSL I'm so far out in the sticks!

Worms is a good point too. Did you have her wormed when you got her?

I did it once,, but maybe I better read the directions again. Maybe I needed to do it twice.. Thanks guys..
That could expain it,, she's just not thriving like she was. Her coat isn't as shiney etc. This all started after she went to the vet and got her shots, she was really sick a couple days and just hasn't been to 100% since, 98 but not 100....
