Cats like milk because it has a high fat content. So, despite the possible consequences, your feline will drink her milk.
Some cat treats and cat food actually contain milk. Cats usually adore these treats, but you should be careful with them and only give them as directed.
It is important to pay attention to your cat’s behavior after they consume dairy products, and if you notice symptoms such as vomiting or diarrhea, then you should contact your veterinarian.
Milk is the main food for kittens, just like for all mammals. When kittens are born they drink their mother’s milk. It’s very rich in nutrients and it helps the kittens to grow and get stronger.
Can Kittens Drink Milk?
Even though cats love milk and dairy products due to the high levels of fatty acids they contain, they shouldn’t be a part of a cat’s diet, just like most human food.
If you’re giving milk to your cat for the first time, make sure that you give them only one tablespoon of milk in order to be sure that they won’t experience negative consequences from it.
Cats usually don’t get any benefits from drinking milk. It can only cause them health issues. Still, small milk treats given occasionally shouldn’t cause your feline serious harm, especially if they already have a healthy and balanced diet.
If your feline adores drinking milk, you can give her lactose-free milk treats that you can find in pet stores or in supermarkets.
