Diarrhea after a food change is common, especially in young cats, if the transition wasn't gradual. Always introduce new food slowly over 7-10 days, mixing increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of the old. If the diarrhea is mild and your cat is otherwise acting normal, you can try to reintroduce the old food or a bland diet for a day or two. If diarrhea is severe, contains blood, your cat is lethargic, vomiting, or not eating, seek veterinary care immediately.
