There is some evidence of adverse effects of high dietary calcium in cats. Howard et al.<ref>Howard, KA, Rogers, QR, Morris, JG (1998). “Magnesium requirement in kittens is increased by high dietary calcium”. J. Nutr. 128 (suppl):2601S-2602S. </ref> found that kittens fed a dietary calcium level of 2.3% DM had depressed food intake, decreased growth and a higher requirement for magnesium. Nevertheless, these effects are not linked to severe skeletal abnormalities as seen in the giant dog breeds.
