Answer
This could be inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).  Ask your vet if that is possible.  This causes the intestine to thicken, so when food goes in, the food comes right out the other end like a hose or a pipe.  The intestine is suposed to fill like a balloon and then contract.  With IBD this does nothappen.
