No, kittens or adult cats should never be given cow's milk. Cats cannot digest the lactose found in cow's milk very well, and some can develop diarrhoea after ingesting it. This can be particularly risky in younger kittens, as diarrhoea can cause it to dehydrate quickly, which can be fatal if not treated quickly.

A much safer alternative is goat's milk or specially formulated cat or kitten milk that can be found from most pet stores and superstores.

Can you feed 3 week puppy milk?

A previous person answered, "yes," but I do not agree. What kind of milk are you talking about? If you are talking about cow's milk, then NO. Dogs do not digest cows milk the same way that humans do. I recommend never giving a dog milk that is not meant for a dog. The puppy should nurse from the mother until at least 6 weeks. If something happens that makes this impossible, you can purchase puppy formula from a pet store.

Milk is not recommended for most dogs as many are lactose intolerant, leading to digestive issues such as bloating, diarrhea, or gas.
