White stuff on cheese: Is it mold or calcium lactate? Safe for my cat?

You may see some GI upset in the form of vomiting and diarrhea in Gillian because dairy causes that in cats, but it's not toxic. If you do see GI upset, I recommend withholding food for 12-24 hours, then feeding a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in her normal diet.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your cat. Cheese should not be toxic to him, but could cause some gastrointestinal upset. I would monitor him for any vomiting or diarrhea. If so, he will need to see his veterinarian. I hope this information helps!

They are not toxic but does the potential to upset her stomach. The only signs you are likely to see are vomiting or diarrhea because it may be too rich for her and cats can become lactose intolerant as they age.

Hello there. It sounds like your cat might be licking the remnants of cheese off the wax wrappers. The cheese might cause his stomach to become upset, which can lead to vomiting or diarrhea. Also, if he swallows the wax, it can lead to a blockage in his intestines. I recommend putting lids on your trash cans to prevent him from getting in them.

I would not be concerned if those were the only ingredients, Otis should be fine. He may get a slight amount of gastrointestinal upset. You may notice some mild vomiting or diarrhea. If this is the case try placing him on a bland diet for a few days to help support his system while it recovers; http://m.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=31506 It is unlikely If he becomes very unwell, please seek veterinary care or start by posting another question on the forum. As I mentioned, I believe Otis will be fine.

Cats should be primarily fed a balanced commercial diet (or carefully balanced home cooked diet) to assure that they receive all necessary vitamins and minerals. Since cats are obligate carnivores and are lactose intolerant, human foods are less than ideal. That being said, unless your cat is experiencing vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or inappetance, I highly doubt that the past two weeks of human food have caused any major issues.

I wouldn't worry too much about this. It wouldn't congeal enough to cause a blockage or anything serious. It may cause him to vomit or have diarrhea though, because this is quite a rich meal. I wouldn't worry if he vomits once or twice, but if he is vomiting more than that for longer than an hour, then it would be best to take Zuko to a vet, because he can get dehydrated and have electrolyte imbalances with excessive vomiting. Below is a link with some more helpful information about vomiting and when a vet may be necessary. https://www.petcoach.co/article/diarrhea-vomiting-in-dogs-when-to-call-your-veterinarian/ For now, it's best to give Zuko's stomach a rest and not feed him again until the morning; but make sure he has plenty of fresh, clean water available. I hope that helps and all is well with Zuko.
