Cats drinking milk easily get abdominal pain, diarrhea, and vomiting because they have little lactase and milk is hard to absorb, causing lactose intolerance.
Goat milk is better absorbed and easier on the gut, with higher protein that aids growth, so it is preferred. Pet-specific goat milk best matches a cat’s nutritional needs.
