Answer 2

Hi there! Please stop giving your child dairy products and cheese and milk! They are incredibly bad for him. People and researchers have known this for ages but it's hard to get the word out because advertising has brain-washed into thinking they are good for us. The truth is cow's milk is very bad for humans (we are not cows!). It's designed for a completely differerent digestive system and it's a different growth rate. It also produces mucos which stops us from being able to absorb any nutrients. It doesnt give us calcium, it actually leaches calcium from our bones because it causes acidity so the body has to over-compensate. Also, there is mouch more calcium in greens (broccoli, spinach, cauliflower) than there is in milk (it's grass that cows get calcium from in the first place!). My guess is that your son might have a runny nose quite often and little chesty coughs. Try going dairy free and watch his health blossom. My twin were permanently ill from birth to about 7 months old (coughs, runny noses, fevers, infections, etc....). From the very day we went vegan (and you dont have to go so extreme, but at least get rid of dairy which is SO BAD for him), they havent had a cold, a runny nose, NOTHING, not even the sniffles and they are now 3 and a half. We just cant get them to catch a cold no matter how many sick children we throw them in with. Seriously, it's hard to believe because we have been brainwashed by advertising beacuse milk makes money, but it's bad for us. Think about it, if someone fed dog's milk to cats, and monkey milk o kangaroos and giraffe milk to bears, would that sound right??? The only milk that's good for us is mother's milk and when that runs out, that's it, we dont need any more. If you still want to give your boy milk, then try soya milk (the unsweetend additive free kind), almond milk or even rice milk which is very healthy and tastes yummy. I hope this helps, good luck.

Answer 3

Do Not give Them milk,

Cats do not have the proper enzymes to properly break down the sugar in milk which is called 'lactose.' You may have heard of people who are lactose-intolerant. They are also missing these digestive enzymes. If the proper enzymes are not present, the lactose remains undigested and tends to ferment in the intestine and cause diarrhea. Some pets can tolerate a little milk, others, none at all. If your pet enjoys and appears to tolerate milk, you can give your pet small amounts. Better yet, give your pet one of the special cat or dog milks on the market that have had the lactose removed.

Answer 4

If your kittens are weaned from their mother, I only give them milk occassionally as a treat. Mostly they need lots of fresh water. Sounds like one cat is trying to clean the other cat. Nothing to do with what they drink or eat. Just what cats do. They're tongues have antibacterial cells (?) that they use to clean themselves . It's not gross. It's nature. If the milk gives them diarrhea do not give it anymore.

Answer 5

Lots of cats don't like milk, so that's not abnormal - make sure they both get plenty of water, as even the one which likes milk won't be able to digest it properly. And the bottom sniffing is just animal behaviour I am afraid - the one having the bottom sniffed is the dominant one, the sniffer is trying to keep him/her happy!

Answer 6

First off, you shouldn't be giving any of your cats milk. Cats are lactose intolerant, and in the best case scenario it will give the cat diarrhea.

Secondly, cats like to groom each other. When we had our female cat, our male was constantly licking her butt.

Answer 7

Well cats really don't need to drink milk. One could be latose intorant if its people milk. If its cat milk then he could just not like milk.

Answer 8

try getting Felix cat milk or another brand if yo prefer.
