Why does my cat poop so much, and her stool is soft but she's fine?

Why does my cat poop so much?? It’s pretty soft, too! She doesn’t seem to feel bad. She eats normally and acts normal, too? Any suggestions?

This probably is due to the food she eats. Some cat food has more undigestible bulk (lots more fiber) than other cat food. If you want her to poop less poop, you will need to get low residue cat food, which is usually a prescription food for cats with constipation. If you put "low residue cat food" in your browser , it will bring up many different kinds.
