Does he eat the same diet day in and day out or could the change be because you gave him something he shouldn't have had?

If he is eating a consistent diet like he should be with no table scraps or treats, I would suspect he has giardia or coccidia.

Coccidia is treated with Albon, but sometimes takes a while to clear up. Giardia is treated with metronidazole. Coccidia can usually be diagnosed with a fecal exam. Call your vet and ask what the charges would be if you just brought in some for testing. Giardia can be harder to diagnose, but the poop is usually described as pale in color and greasy looking.
