Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2007Cheese....
My cat has developed a taste for cheese he will steal it if he can but will know immediately when it is placed on the table, and will cry for some. Do you think I should stop him ? He actually gets very little but I know that they are not supposed to drink milk so possibly this may apply to cheese.

The small amount of cheese and/or milk that cats usually eat won't hurt them......They are not going to live forever any more than you will. Let them enjoy a tidbit now and then.....I feed my B-K a small bowl of milk once a week or so.....He likes me to pay the special attention to him that bringing it entails. He really doesn't care that much for it, and usually only drinks about half of what I bring. But he knows that it is a special thing that I do just for him, and that makes all the difference....

We've got a diabetic cat, Brundle, at our rescue shelter. He loves cheese and cake and will help you eat your sandwiches :-) My Missy is rather partial to Red Leicester..!

Milk and dairy products are fine for cats in moderation. Some cats are lactose intolerant and it can cause diarrhea My little Moshi just loved soft ice cream. Milkshakes were one of her favorites. The last thing she got to eat on this earth was a milkshake and I was happy knowing she went out with her last meal being her favorite. So make it special. > My cat has developed a taste for cheese he will steal it if he can but > will know immediately when it is placed on the table, and will cry for [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > that they are not supposed to drink milk so possibly this may apply to > cheese. > My little Moshi just loved soft ice cream.

Yes....B-K likes them too....He got lots of them while living in the Burger King parking lot.....He also knows how to eat them without spilling them over....He sticks his paw down in the cup, and then licks the milkshake off of it.....Most cats would knock it over and then lap up what they could before it soaks into the ground.......It is one of the few people foods he will still eat. Otherwise, he is strictly a kibbles cat....... My cats and the strays I feed love milk and cheese. And Hobbes runs to me whenever he hears me dipping ice cream! >> My little Moshi just loved soft ice cream. Milkshakes were one of her >> favorites.

Just a note to people who might not know: Never feed kitty chocolate ice cream...chocolate is poisonous to cats the same way it is to dogs. The smallest amount can kill them. PSA aside; my Big Mama won't eat ice cream, but I did find out recently that she likes Blue Cheese...just a couple little bites though. I didn't think she would like such a pungent cheese, but she did. Whenever I eat anything, and she comes around staring at me, I always offer her a bit on my finger to put her curiosity to rest. 9 times out of 10, she don't want any. 1 time out of 10, she'll have a little bite or two, or even three, then be done with it. I think wheat bread is about her favorite people food. >> My one cat is mad for ice cream and she can smell it from far away. > > Just a note to people who might not know: > Never feed kitty chocolate ice cream...chocolate is poisonous to cats > the > same way it is to dogs. The smallest amount can kill them. Well, that's a bit of an overstatement....Here is an article that states the case a little more realistically...... http://petcaretips.net/cat-chocolate-poisoning.html > "studio" <tl...@hotmail.com> wrote in message > > Just a note to people who might not know: [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Well, that's a bit of an overstatement....Here is an article that states the > case a little more realistically......http://petcaretips.net/cat-chocolate-poisoning.html Yes, I knew at the time I wrote it that it was "realistically" an overstatement on my part. But chocolate should not be an offering to cats or dogs under any circumstances ...although it is not unheard of death or severe sickness actually occuring. Chocolate is still a known poison to them under any circumstances, and people should not feed their dog or cat poison, as the results *could* be fatal. >> "studio" <tl...@hotmail.com> wrote in message >> > Just a note to people who might not know: [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > and people should not feed their dog or > cat poison, as the results *could* be fatal. Yes. It is more a matter of whether the animal is allergic to it or not....A small amount of chocolate could also be fatal to human beings if they are allergic enough. None of my cats are allergic to chocolate, but then, they don't particularly like it either, although BK will eat chocolate milk shake if he is hungry. He learned to do that in the Burger King parking lot where he used to live.....Now, when I make a milk shake, I feed him a little of the vanilla ice cream that I use before I add the chocolate...... > My little Moshi just loved soft ice cream.

Good story. I'm a vegan so I don't eat dairy products. But I do like soy cheese and so does Isis! I give her little bits occasionally and she has a good time. She also likes bits of the veggie patties you get at Subway.
