Is cow-based cat & kitten milk safe for my kitten's digestion?

It would ideally best to give good quality cat food for kittens as the diet would be more balanced and nutritionally complete to match all his needs. Cow milk is not necessary (even diluted) and can cause diarrhoea.

No. Kitty was weaned by her mother between 5-8 weeks of age. She no longer needs milk and it could even upset her stomach. Make sure you are feeding a balanced, commercial kitten food and this will include all the calcium she needs. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Don't worry! You haven't messed up her GI system :-) Likely, a little won't hurt every now and then, but because it normally does cause GI upset, it's best to avoid it completely. It's ok, no need to get upset. You are doing the right thing by not giving it to her anymore. I bet if you give her a little white meat chicken (no bones) as an occasional treat instead, Negra will be quite the happy kitty :)

Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Actually most adult cats and dogs are lactose intolerant. In some cats milk or dairy products can cause vomit or diarrhea. But others tolerate it. My opinion is if Jhumru doesn't get sick from milk then there is no reason to stop, but watch for any signs of an upset stomach. I hope this helps and I wish you a great day! https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/cat/milk/

Your kitten should be okay and you do not need to try to flush his system. If he is not used to drinking milk, he may experience some soft bowel movements for a day or two, but that should resolve on its own if it does occur.

If you are feeding cow's milk, then yes it can cause diarrhea in cats. Cats are lactose intolerant, and don't have the right enzymes to properly digest cow (or similar) milk, which can lead to diarrhea. if you'd like to give Moca a "milk" treat, there are specially made cat milk treats that can be found at your local pet store. It has a similar taste to cow's milk that cats like, but shouldn't give them GI upset like regular milk as long as it's given as a treat.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Most adult animals are actually lactose intolerance. As long as the milk doesn't cause vomiting or diarrhea then it shouldn't hurt Skittles. I hope this helps! Have a great day!
