Beaphar Lactol Kitten Milk Replacement Powder
Produced for over 100 years and contributing to saving the lives of countless young animals, Beaphar Lactol Kitten Milk is a complete milk replacement food, specially formulated for new-born and orphaned kittens. Providing the best substitute nutritional care for new-born kittens when a mothers milk is not available, Beaphar Lactol Kitten Milk is specially developed, undergoing ultra filtration to concentrate proteins and a slow drying process during production preserving the essential protein molecules. It is made from easily digested whey closely resembling natural queens milk, and unlike a fat-skimmed cow’s milk formula, it provides a superior protein source and essential amino acid profile suited to the development of new-born kittens. It contains protein for optimum growth and development, and is enriched with essential vitamins and minerals.
Their most advanced formula yet, Beaphar Lactol Kitten Milk now contains DHA. DHA has been shown to improve cognitive ability and visual acuity in new-born mammals, and so has the potential to speed up training, obedience and socialisation. Its recent addition to kitten food has been much publicised, but it is rarely found in milk replacers until now.
Used by generations of championship breeders, Beaphar Lactol is one of a very few recognised brands in the pet trade, trusted and recommended by countless experts. Its superior amino acid and vitamin and mineral content provide a perfectly balanced complete feed, suitable for weaning kittens, pregnant or lactating queens and sick or convalescing animals.
