Cats are true carnivores they are not omnivores like humans or dogs. Dry cat food or wet cat food is best for a cat. Some wet cat foods have ash in them and cause urinary problems. Cats can actually go blind if they do not have a proper diet of meat. I hope this information is useful to you.

It is not recommended, but in small amounts it will not hurt them. Once past nursing, cats become lactose intolerant and can get severe diarrhea if they consume too much dairy. A teaspoon of Yogurt (plain, preferably, since sugar isn't very good for them) will however help out with constipation issues.

Strawberry yogurt is not necessarily BAD for a kitten, but it isn't the best either. It could even cause them to have diarrhea, as it has milk in it. Many believe milk is good for cats, but cows milk isn't the same as their mothers milk. They're also carnivores, and don't breakdown fruits the same.

Strawberry Yogurt is ok is extremely small amounts. I would say try regular yogurt instead. Fruit can easily upset the stomach of cats and dogs. I would not feed this as the sole source of nutrition to the cat. instead feed it only as a treat and in a max of a table spoon size.

It is totally fine as long as you feed it to your kitty in controlled portions. I have first hand experience on feeding kitties strawberry yogurt--- it gave her stinky diarrhea! It's okay as a treat once in a while, though. Hope this helped! :)

It probably is not going to kill the kittens, however, you need to stick to water and kitten food if you want to avoid the kittens having problems with urine tract infections later one. Feeding kittens milk and other table food can cause diarrhea, lead to diabetes and other health related problems. Plus they turn into beggers at every meal.
