I would have Panda seen by a vet first. If he's having pale and soft feces along with coarse fur, he could actually be suffering from intestinal worms or an inability to digest nutrients properly. Because there can be a medical cause behind this, having him seen by a vet is the best idea before changing his food. I would have him seen today or tomorrow.
