This useful blog comes to us from Sheree Wilkerson of Wichita, Kansas. This is the first time I've seen anyone else state that cats shouldn't drink milk although I've known it for several decades.
Thanks, Sheree.

I love kitty cats!
I've had cats since I was oh.... born. We've never been without a cat in my household until recently when I married my severely allergic husband. We're working on that....
But I'm extremely fond of them and you'll find me lingering at most any listing that has its own feline inhabitant. I have even adopted the neighborhood Tom cat and he has a dish in my garage!
So I'd like to think that I knew quite a bit about cats and how to take care of them, having spent the last couple of decades with kitties!
I found this site: http://www.yourspecialcat.com/ and learned several things I didn't know!
For instance, did you know that kitties are lactose intolerant and should not drink milk? But they do sell a special variety of milk on Amazon just for poor little kitties to drink. Check out Four Common Foods your cat should avoid for a couple of more surprises!
The site even has a health section helping you ease your cat's symptoms when they too get the common cold or become the never-ending hairball machine.
All in all, it was a neat site and had a few surprises for me, so I wanted to pass that on to the kitty lovers in my life!
Meow!

wow, I am not a cat person but consider myself a know-it-all, yet I was unaware that kittens are lactose intolerant. A tid-bit I shall remember just incase it comes up on Jeopardy!
