'Human' Lactose-free milk


((Hello All))

Hope everyone had a nice Christmad and New Year .

Ok, now a question:

My mum saw a large carton of 'lactose-free' milk for human consumption in the supermarket and we're wondering if this would be ok for Billy. It seems logical to me as the lactose is what upsets their system in the first place.

Buying a larger carton would certainly work out more economical .

Happy New Year Gaina! This is a very good question and I don't know the answer but would SUPPOSE that lactose free milk is lactose free milk and would do for lactose intolerant kitties!

Good question! I would assume it would be OK, why not just buy a pint first and try it? If it agrees with him you can then get the larger size .......
