I had a mom cat do that (I foster so I have a lot of mother cats in the
house).. very loose pudding like and greasy. The holistic vet at the
practice I go to suggested I give her boiled pork or whitefish for a while.
(she also suggested mice but that is a whole different story) Its not out
of the norm. Although if the kittens all have loose stools too, it could be
an internal parasite, and a fecal test would be a good idea (would be a good
idea regardless)

The young cats need wormed now anyway, so better ask the vet and worm Mom
too.
