What kind of milk are you talking about, pasteurized or unpasteurized, or
both? Here's something interesting I once found on Yahoo's Live-Food
Mailing List: "... one of my adult male cats is entirely correct in his
assessment that pasteurized/homogenized milk is better for cats than raw.
He can even "prove" it to you--he doesn't get diarrhea from it, like he
does every time he's given raw milk, and he managed to cure himself of a
central nervous system-affecting disease last year eating nothing but."

I wouldn't generalize this tolerance to all cats, like this gentleman did,
but in case you haven't tried it yet maybe your cat can handle pasteurized
milk.
