Congratulations. As the guardian of a
milkoholic™ cat or kitten you've made a brave
first step in helping them on the road to
recovery by recognising their problem. It's a
sad fact that many cats love milk a little too
much. And unfortunately they just can’t
handle it. That's because most cats are
lactose intolerant and can't digest the sugars
in milk, resulting in gastric upset and diarrhea.
For that reason, cow's milk should never be
the primary or regular food source for any
cat or kitten.
So how do you know if your cat's a milkoholic? We've put together
a series of short video tutorials that will help you recognise
the signs.
Sharing your cat's story of milk dependence can really help
the recovery process and be inspirational for others battling
their own cat's milkoholism™. So email us your story and
pictures simply by clicking on the link below. The best stories
will be published on this website and receive a free 1kg pack
of new FRISKIES® with MILK ESSENTIALS™. Remember,
a problem shared is a problem halved.
NEWSFLASH!
New national survey shows 35% of New Zealanders give their cats milk!

Cold turkey Many cats are partial to a little chilled turkey in their diet. As a means to redirecting their attention away from their milk addiction it has proven to be ineffective in clinical studies.
MA Hardened milkoholics may find Milkoholics Anonymous useful. This is a fellowship of cats who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others recover from milkoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking milk.
