I know that cats are lactose intolerant and he does get sick when he drinks milk. He actually likes any kind of dairy, including margerine and butter, which still make him sick. But if I want to treat him, is there any specific kind that easier on their stomachs? Like goat's milk or something?

so do mine. i have to sneak out the margerine. i give mine the "cat" milk(in cartons, refridgerate after opening) you can get at the pet stores or even some grocery stores. they even have a cheddar flavor and extra creamy kind flovoring. i also get goats milk sometimes and this was a reccommended ingreadient in a homemade kitten formula. goats milk is a little more expensive, but you can freeze it in small lidded tuppewares and take one out each day and let it thaw or put it in the microwave to speed up the melting process, test with finger so it isn't too hot, you can drop in some ice if it is. it is alway nice to have it a little warmed as really cold stuff can cause tummy troubles.

No Kind Of Milk Is Good For Cats. It Gives Them The Shits.

You should try goat's milk, or see if he likes yogurt. The probiotics that make yogurt digest the lactose so it's easier to digest than milk. They do have milk just for cats at the pet store, and Frosty Claws ice cream too!

Petsmart makes cat milk. But if your cat doesn't take to it right away mix it with regular milk and slowly add more cat milk and less regular milk.

I give my cat 2% and he's fine. He usually finishes off the milk at the bottom of the cereal bowl. In fact, he meows at me to eat faster so he can get the milk. :)

milk is bad for their digestive system. If you want to give them milk make sure its dilluted. Anotherwards put a little bit of water in with the milk! I hoped that work!

MY cat always drinks my leftover milk from my cereal. I don't give her much but she doesn't get sick. There is cat milk in which you can buy at your local supermarket.

If you water down the milk it helps.I think goat milk will be better , my cat eats goat cheese and she's cool.

You can get special cat milk at a pet shop...or give your cat Kefir , it doesn't include lactose anymore.
