Pasteurized and homogenized cow's milk is the most common form of milk consumption in most of the western world; in some parts of the world however, goat's milk is the drink of choice and interestingly enough, goat's milk is digested in 20 minutes whereas cow's milk takes 24-hours. As I dug a little deeper I saw that the American Journal of Medicine stated... "goat's milk is the most complete food known" - wow that is a lofty statement that left me stunned as I always thought cow's milk was the most healthy type of all!
This month www.chewy.com sent me six containers of Purrfect Pairings Chicken Mousse cat food with Goat Milk by Solid Gold -- and, I couldn't wait for my cats to try it especially considering all the health benefits of goat's milk. Just what are those benefits for cats (and humans alike)... well they are pretty extensive - goat's milk contains vitamins, minerals, trace elements, electrolytes, enzymes, proteins, and fatty acids that are easy for to absorb. As for the food from Solid Gold-- I really liked the smell and consistency of this creamy light and airy grain and gluten free chicken mousse and so did Zivah and Zoey... it was a feeding delight for the girls!
The added goat milk to this nutrient rich chicken mousse contains essential vitamins including taurine that is the essential amino acid in cats for normal vision, digestion and heart function. For this cat owner, best of all it comes in an easy to serve plastic cup that serves a perfect portion and is easily disposable. Goat's milk is easily absorbed; the fatty acids in this milk increases digestibility which is especially good for those poor kitty's with sensitive stomachs. Let's not forget all the vitamins and minerals and naturally occurring probiotics that goat milk contains. In a nutshell goat's milk is easy to digest and causes less allergic reactions because it doesn't contain complex proteins, it has a buffering element and alkalinizes the digestive system because it is it has high concentrations of amino acid L-glutamine. And, the Tonks are not going to be left out of all this goodness!
