Uhh... Help?

I have a Little kitten thats about 5-6 weeks old.. When it goes in its litter box... IT SMELLS SO BAD!! I mean it would kill people!!! Am I feeding the wrong food?
I feed it Dry Food and somtimes Wet Food
Is it normal?
What do you think it'll be like when hes older...
HELP!!
Answers:
Kittens have really smelly poop and its normal. As long as you are feeding a good quality dry kitten food then you are doing just fine. Don't worry, the smelly poop thing goes away fairly quickly!
Kitten poo always stinks REALLY bad, like diarhea. Just make sure you're feeding him kitten chow and he'll be fine.
i'm really sorry but i can't
A kitten that small should be fed wet food that is easy to digest this can cause a bad smell. You can buy a good brand of dry kitten food and put warm milk in it to get it soggy and mash it up this may help the smell. If not you will just have to deal with it until the kitty becomes older and can digest food more efficently. if you are worried and think something is wrong call your local vet and ask him a few questions he should be able to give you a good answer.
Dry food only! I'd feed an all natural food like Wellness, Nutro Natural chioce, or Holistic.
You should get that oder locking stuff
I think it's the urine you're smelling...that has the killer kind of tinge to it. Get deodorizing litter that counteracts the ammonia. If it's the poo..then sry
Usually the smell varies, depending on cat, litter and food. The best thing to do is feed a higher quality food (holistic if possible), this reduces the smell since it's easier to digest.

Best of luck!
Make sure the hard food is kitten formula. At 5-6 weeks wet kitten food might be easiest on it's teeth. A cat's poo always smeels bad. My kitten is about 18 weeks and she will make you want to get up and go outside to get away from the smell
For eliminating the odor, I found the perfect product that I've used for years and know dozens of other people that use it. It is a product called FRIDGE IT carbon odor absorbers. It is a little purple cube with an incredible activated carbon filter inside that is really, really, great. The carbon literally absorbs and eliminates the odors and works for a long time. It works so much better than all those sprays and fragrances that just cover up smells and doesn't get rid of them. Also, alot of sprays have warning statements about being eye irritant. and gels and oils that say keep away from fabric, etc. and just don't eliminate odors. Just hang a couple of these on the litter box. I use this product everywhere including car(smoke and pet smells), storage, closets, my fridge and also under sinks, near trash and have friends that use it on cat litter box and also diaper pails - it's that good. I really recommend it. You can buy it in kitchen gadget sections in stores like walmart and linens and things. I also think camping world sells it. Definitely worth trying
