Many cat owners believe that dairy products, particularly cheese, are very beneficial for their pets.
However, this is nothing more than a myth. We explain why you shouldn't feed your cat cheese.
Can you give cheese to a cat?
It is possible, but only occasionally and in strictly limited quantities.
Contrary to popular belief about the benefits of dairy products for cats, the digestive system of most cats does not tolerate lactose well.
A cat with an allergy to milk will react badly to even a small piece of cheese.
Symptoms of milk allergy in cats include: vomiting, diarrhea, itchy/red spots on the skin, hair loss.
If your cat shows these or other unusual symptoms after eating cheese, you should take her to the vet as soon as possible.
