Kitten 'goes' too much?

hey guys! Well I just adopted a kitten, she's about 7 months old. I know nothing about cat nutrition, although I'm well versed in dog nutrition. I feed my dog a homemade diet because he has kidney disease.
So I put my kitten on Wellness Kitten Formula kibble and add a spoonfull of wellness wet once a day. She loves it but i find that she poops WAY too much! She's only 7 lbs or so and her waste is the same size as my 40 lb dog! AND granted my dog's waste is a lot smaller than it used to now that he's on raw/homefeeding but still.
She's been like this since I got her, when I adopted her they gave me a bag of cheap kitten chow so i blamed it on that. But now she's been on Wellness almost two months and I need to clean out her litter box twice a day.
I know Wellness is a great brand for dog food, is it good for cats? is there something better I can try to help with her 'poop'? How about kibble vs. dry? is it better to go one way over another? she gets mostly kibble now anyway. Thanks..
