Your feline friend and milk

If you have a cat at home, chances are you’ve been tempted to offer her milk products at one point or another. After all, the two are so frequently paired together in the mainstream media. Does this mean it’s a healthy snack for your cat?

There are a lot of wonderful treats for your cat to consume, but milk products aren’t one of them. Your pet may enjoy the taste of them, but she will likely have some digestive distress later on. This is because most adult cats are lactose intolerant and have trouble digesting milk and products made with it. Young kittens are able to digest the milk from their mother’s due to an enzyme their body produces, but this generally stops being created once they are weaned and begin to eat solid food. For more information, please contact your local Oconomowoc, WI vet clinic.
