MILK AND MILK SUBSTITUTE

• 100 gm of cat’s milk contains 9.5 g protein, 6.8g fat, 10.0g lactose, 35mg calcium and 70 mg phosphorus and provides 142 calories.
• Kittens do not thrive when they are hand reared on cow’s milk but a mixture of dried cow’s milk reconstituted at twice the normal strength is satisfactory.
