"Shall I wait and see," the father asked as Tito, the hyperactive cat had just passed foul-smelling stools 

"You have to decide," I replied. "If I say wait and the cat dies, you will blame me."

He and his adult daughter brought the cat in for treatment.
"Did the cat eat something new?" I asked.
"No, not even cat treats."
"Did he lick some chemicals from your floor?"
"No, but we had the rubbish chute fumigation by the HDB 3 days ago."
"So cockroaches would have come out," I knew this cat is a cockroach catcher. He would paw one and let it run away. Then he would paw it again and slept on it."Yes, there was a cockroach 2 days ago, in the kitchen." the father said
"Did he eat it?"
"I don't know. But he just loved the new version of the W/D dry food and would not have enough of it."
"What happened if the cockroach managed to escape from his paws" I asked.
"He would wait till it re-appears under the sofa,' the father said. "Patiently. Now you had neutered him, he had become much more active as I thought he would become lazy. He would slide off the floor in front of my daughter making us laugh!"

The foul diarrhoea would be irritation of the intestines from the fumigation chemicals seeping from the rubbish chute into the apartment. The cat was probably there to prey on any cockroaches coming out of the chute. 
This cat is much loved. He was given injections by Dr Daniel and went home.
