Why can I just feed cows milk or goats milk as a sole source of nutrients to the puppy or kitten?
Milk from a cow is designed by nature to raise a calf. Milk from a goat is designed by nature to raise a kid. Milk that is produced by a bitch or queen is designed by nature to feed a puppy or kitten. Our puppy and kitten milk replacers have been formulated to closely match bitch’s or queen’s milk. The protein and fat levels in mother’s milk are much higher than those of cow’s or goat’s milk and the lactose levels are considerably lower. Other essential vitamins and amino acids, which are required for proper development of puppies and kittens, have been added to our formulas as well. Likewise, canned evaporated milks or human infant formula are not a good choice for raising a healthy puppy or kitten.
