    Yogurt is mainly made by fermentation of milk and probiotics, and eating yogurt is helpful to the cat's intestines.

    When choosing yogurt, try to choose plain yogurt, it is not recommended to give it flavored yogurt, or add yogurt like tropical fruits and nuts, fruits and nuts are likely to be indigestible, which will increase the burden on the cat's gastrointestinal tract, resulting in food allergies or food intolerances.

    It is not recommended to give yogurt to kittens under two months old, because the intestines of kittens are not fully developed and mature, and they are in the transition from breast milk to self-feeding, and eating yogurt at this time can easily cause diarrhea.

    When a cat tries yogurt for the first time, it gradually exceeds the amount from a small amount to a large amount, and should not exceed two cups of yogurt a day.

    Cats can drink yogurt.

    Yogurt is made from milk that has been fermented, and the proteins and lactose in it that are difficult to digest and absorb have been broken down, but the nutrients can still be retained, so even if the cat eats it, it will not cause diarrhea.

    But if the cat has not drunk yogurt, it is best to give the cat a little to see if there are any adverse reactions, and if there is, then don't feed it.

    Yogurt for cats

    First of all, it is necessary to know that yogurt is divided into milk powder blending and yogurt fermented with raw milk.

The yogurt fermented with raw milk, after fermentation, the lactose structure has been destroyed, so there is no fear of lactose intolerance in cats, this can be drunk.

    In addition, many yogurts have more additives, so it is best to choose plain yogurt for cats, and it is not too much yogurt for cats, just keep it at the amount of "a small bottle cap" or yogurt licking cap.
