Can kittens drink milk?
Kittens cannot drink milk. Milk contains high lactose, and cats are lactose intolerant and cannot digest lactose in their intestines. Especially young cats, which lack lactase in their bodies. These indigestible lactose will cause some bacteria to multiply, absorb water and cause diarrhea. Feeding milk to kittens may cause intestinal discomfort due to lactose intolerance, causing symptoms of diarrhea and vomiting. The fat chain in milk is long and difficult for cats to absorb, which can easily lead to volumetric diarrhea, which is fatal to cats, especially young cats.
Kitten dietary precautions:
1. Kittens are in the stage of physical development and need to be fed 4-5 times a day to meet their nutritional intake needs. But at the same time, you should not feed too much at one time. Feeding should be done regularly and quantitatively, in small amounts and multiple times.
2. When the cat is young, you should urge it to drink more water. This will help it develop a good habit of drinking water.
3. The kitten’s intestines and stomach are much more fragile than those of adult cats, so the poop scraper can feed it some probiotics to help with digestion.
