my kitten has been drinking whiskers cats milk for the last few weeks, but we recently found a cheaper alternative. He is being a fussy little blighter though and refusing to drink it! any tips on how to persuade him on this?
he won't touch water, and I've been told cows milk will upset his tummy, (although my mum gave him some and he seemed ok!) can't afford to give him whiskers everyday - help!

He will drink it given time, its simply that if he's never had it he doesn't know what it is. Try wetting your fingers and letting him sniff and lick them. Also, if all you put down for him is water, when he's thirsty enough he'll drink it! My cat only drinks water and is absolutely fine on it - they don't need milk once they're older.
Same goes for the cheaper brand of milk - he'll turn his nose up at it to start with but if that's the only option he will drink it eventually and get used to it. Whiskers milk is certainly far too expensive to be giving him everyday!
