Question

Answer 1

Yes, you can use it, but you don't really need to as long as the mother cat is getting the proper nutrition she should be able to produce enough milk on her own AND sometimes excess milk can cause diarrhea in animals, so be careful not to over do it,
If you feel better about buying the goats milk go ahead it is better for her than cows milk.
Best of luck to you in this and thanks for being concerned about you cat and kittens.

Answer 2

Be more specific: why do you want the milk? To feed the babies or the mother? You don't need to give any milk to the mother, just cat food! As for the babies, if they need supplement, they need kitten formula. And when you say you can't find goat milk but then you say you can find it a grocery store, isn't this contradictory?

Answer 3

give the cat all she wants to eat she needs the calories for her and to make the milk for the kits,goats milk is good , or try half&half,, no cows milk..the fat will help with calories need give good quality wet food and dry..cows milk right from the cow is good but after it is processed it is not..all my cats got a big pan full when i milked the cows thay loved it
