Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I'm sorry to hear that Winnie is having soft stools, despite a bland diet. I recommend adding in a 1/2 teaspoon of Metamucil (original, unflavored) powder to her meals twice daily. This is an over-the-counter fiber supplement that can help bulk up stools. If the soft stool continues with these therapies, she should be seen by a veterinarian as a more serious problem could be present. Causes of soft stool include gastrointestinal parasites, liver disease, colitis, etc. I hope this is helpful!
