Is milk bad for cats?

Question

is milk bad for cats?

Answer 1

I believe it can be bad for them in a way. Ive heard it upsets there stomachs and can give them diarrhea.

Answer 2

Actually yes, often cats are milk intolerant, causing vomiting and diarrhea. It's just some silly old wives tale to feed cats milk,.. just like a dog should have a litter of pups. It's absolutely false, and moreover, the opposite of the truth!

Answer 3

Yes. A little bit, every great once in a while is fine. If your cats want milk, you can buy cat milk at a animal store. Its hard to find, but good luck!

Answer 4

Gee, they've only been drinking it for thousands of years...

Answer 5

umm yea but for kittens buy some canned kitten milk

Answer 6

If you are asking about cow's milk, yes, it is very bad for cats.  They get diarrhea if they drink cow's milk or more than a few laps of the tongue of cream.  Cats do just fine on water once they are weaned from their mother's b*****s.  If you want to give your cat the occasional treat, give the cat a taste of your ice cream (vanilla is best) but just a taste, no more than three 'tongues-full' ...
